How do you get a dvd burner to burn at the right speed?

Use the right speed of disc! The speed of burning is depending on the speed of the disc and the maximum speed of the burner, whichever is the slower one.\n\nAnd don't buy cheap disc. They may have poor quality and just couldn't last. ALso, store your disc in proper boxes.

first,depends on the method you are burning disc-if you`r doing an "on the fly" check with nero toolkit>info tool how much buffer memory is installed on your drives (dvd|dvd-rw) if your dvd-rom has an 256kb buffer you can not burn dvd`s with speed more then 4X-and that`s about 15 minutes for full 4.3Gb disc-2.dont verify-you can verify it yourself (after burning just put your disc in the dvd rom and if it plays-it`s ok)3.if your burning data from hdd than you should change the connections on your mainboard and drives also,put the boot hdd as master on primary ide and the dvd-rw as a slave on it to,second hdd put as master on secondary and dvd rom as slave on same ....and so on...also try uninstall the nero and install it again,or using another burning program (uninstall nero firs than install another program),also check this,go to my computer>right click>hardware>device manager>>double click the ide controller>right click the primary channel>a new window will open>click advanced tab>look if your hdd`s are set to "ultra dma" if yes dot touch anything if no (if "pio mode" than clikc dropdown list and select "dma") press "ok"repeat the step for second channel (if the drives set to piu mode-than change to dma )that should solve the problem....

The first thing you need is a DVD burner. \nhttp://froogle.google.com/froogle?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLG,GGLG:2006-08,GGLG:en&q=dvd%20burner&sa=N&tab=wf\nThen you need DVD Burning Software. Like Roxio or Nero. Nero is best.

I use Roxio Easy Media Creator (great program very easy to use) Here is a link to BurnWorld.com http://www.burnworld.com/software/dvdburning/dvdburning.htm(DVD software reviews)

Use "Nero" (it`s a name for a program) to burn your DVD`s,insert blank DVD into the DVD burner and the souce DVD in to DVD drive (it`s called on the fly burning) start nero and select copy DVD->select speed and check the box on "on the fly " option than click burn-your done (this answer apllies only if you have 2 drives) on a single drive option (if you have just DVD-RW drive) than insert source disc (movie,game,music...)run "Nero" select copy DVD on the next screen be shour that your source and destination drive are the same drive also select your drive but with DVD at the end) click burn it would start creating an image file after the process finishes it`ll ask you to insert blank DVD-take out your source dvd out and insert a blank one-your done -also be shour to select apropriate speed for burnig -higher speed lowers the buffer so higher the possibility to fail burning,also chek if "buffer underun protection" is active and does your drive support`s (most does)....if your trying to burn original dual layer dvd`s on a single layer (blank) dvd use DVD Shrink to compress the original and to create an file for burning with single layer dvd discs (for movies),if it`s an program than use Alcohol 120% (an program) to burn the disc....

Are the drivers for the CD burner properly installed? If not you'd need to install them, and that should fix your problem.

yes the  speeds on your burner relate to how fast your burner can burn but your discs will determine what speed you actually burn at

the problem is that you have several problems first the processer is too slow 900mhz is the minimal requirement. Second there the ram you need at lease 256 mb to opearate the drive with any degree of success. I don't believe it is possible to run a dvd-rw on the computer in question.

I have a huge collection of dvds and i sometimes copy 5 times that ammount in a day.However i do not do multiple copies one after another as i was told this can cause overheating to your burner.I copy 1 then i encode the next,this as you know takes a little time so it is allowing the burner to cool down.But i have done 4 in a row once and didnt see any problems-the last one out seemed a bit warmer than usual though.

Make sure your burner lens is clear.  \n\nTry using a different brand of CD.\n\nMaybe there is a software or firmware update. I would definately check for those first.

You need a DVD burner in order to burn a DVD.  The burner should come with proper software for burning DVDs.

Definitely. The noise is dvd inside rotating very fast, or plastic gears in laser lens mechanism is gridning against each other. either way - dvd burners are under $40 now. Just get a new plextor burner and forget your worries.

Unlike VCR recording, speed does not affect the amount of video you can put onto a DVD.  If you want to add more video to the DVD, you need to reduce the quality of the video itself.\n\nThe reason some people change their recording speed when burning a DVD is to reduce the number of errors made. To do this, go to your burning software and somewhere under options or tools, there should be a way to lower the speed.\n\nHope this helps.

48x, all the new burners you buy today should be more than adequate speed wise for anything you wnat to do.\n\nThats the whole point of Buffer Under run protection so if the drive cannot keep up there is no break in the data being received.\n\nThat is not a Nero thing it has to be supported by the actual burner, but all new burners today should have this built in.\n\nNothing wrong with using cake boxes of 50 or more, brand names are availble in these and you will save your self some money, I use Fujifilm and Sony myself with good results.

You've got a really good driver. Unlike regular DVD writers and readers, DVD-RAM has the ability to have data overwritten 100,000 times compared to the DVD burners we have in most computers. The writing speed is a little slower, but its a lot more versatile. I'm just learning about it right now too.\n\nYou will be able to burn and read DVDs, and you dont need a special software like most of us do. You can basically burn things into your DVD as if its an extra hard drive. Its a pretty spectacular driver.\n\n\n********************************\nCompared with other writeable DVDs, DVD-RAM is more closely related to hard disk technology, as it has concentric tracks instead of one long spiral track. Unlike the competing formats DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW and DVD-RW, special DVD burning software is not required to write or read DVD-RAMs on a computer. DVD-RAMs can be accessed like a usual floppy disk or hard drive. Go ahead and play your game, you have all the capabilities of a DVD writer/reader on your DVD-RAM driver, but with a lot more options and with more convenience.\n\nA DVD format wherein DVD-RAM discs can be recorded and erased repeatedly but are only compatible with devices manufactured by the companies that support the DVD-RAM format.\n\nDVD-RAM 1.0 \nSingle-sided, one layer discs with a capacity of 2.58 GB \nDouble-sided one layer discs with a capacity of 5.16 GB \nDVD-RAM 2.0 \nSingle-sided, one layer discs with a capacity of 4.7 GB \nDouble-sided one layer discs with a capacity of 9.4 GB
