Roxio does not have installed drivers for the burners and can only do what the burner allows. The image below is from the options on the home page. It is for my DVD RW burner. My CD burner shows only 10X and 12X (max). You might want to go to the computer and/or the burner manufacturer and see if there is a firmware update for your burner to give you more options. Be careful with firmware installation; follow the directions exactly. You might also want to try a different CD manufacturer. Sometimes the disc quality is the problem and not the burn speed or player.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KahunaK Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 I have an HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GWA4164B and I presume to be the latest driver (E113) from Dell. However, Roxio will not recognize burning faster than 4x. When I was using Nero or Easy CD Creator 7, I was able to burn at different rates between 4 and 16; mostly at 16. It was dependent on the quality of DVD from the manufacturer. Now, with East CD Creator 9 Deluxe, I get nothing but 4x. I'm considering removing Easy CD Creator 9 Deluxe altogether because the changes (features) made to the software that I use are less than capable of version 7 -- classic case of feature bloat and now it doesn't work at same capability as before.... ... unless someone has a quick answer to fix some of these things -- slow DVD burning for this forum entry.

gi7omy Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 First of all Roxio reports the ACTUAL burn speed at a given moment - not the selected speed (which most other apps do) Burning DVDs - that is set by the disc (there is an info track on every blank saying what it is and what its rated speed is). This is read by the drive firmware and that tells the app what speed it is capable of handling If the firmware doesn't recognise the disc, it will default to the lowest rated speed - the app has no say in that as it accepts what it is being told If you have firmware which does not recognise the media, you will not get it to burn any faster. By the same token, if the firmware recognises a disc as 8x rated, then it will burn at 8x - it can be selected to burn at a lower rate - NEVER at a higher rate The above btw only applies to DVDs - CDs don't have that track info so you can wreck a CD by trying to burn way above its rated speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
