Re: Toast 5 Burn Speed
You're wrong. :-) I have burned at 16x from both my Pismo G3/500 and my iMac DV G3/400 'grape'. With two different external firewire CD-R drives, both 16/10/40. I don't recall whether they have 2MB or 8MB buffers, but buffer underrun was not a problem. One thing that IS important is that the file to be burned should reside on the computer's hard drive, not on another CD-ROM. I have not been able to direct-dupe CD-ROMs at 16X. Undoubtedly this is because the internal CD/DVD drives in my Pismo and iMac can only read CDs at 12X. ;-) I've used Toast 4 OEM, Toast 5 OEM, and Apple's CD-Burn with success. System 9 and OS X (Jaguar). --Jim. on 4/20/04 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: on 4/20/04 3:42 PM, G-Books at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It seems like a problem with Toast, though, as Dragon Burn X (demo) lets me burn at 16x in 10.3.3.

I believe the Pismo architecture will cause buffer underrun at greater than 8X. Hoping I am wrong...;) -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

The thing that surprised me was that I have had several different OEM combos in my Pismo and they all burned fine at up to 24x, their rated max speed. So I know the Pismo can do a lot more than 8x. Problem 2: the UJ-810B is supposed to read DVD-RW, but I can't mount the DVD-RW I burn with either the 810B or the Pioneer 107 in our G4. Any tips? Thanks.

Oops, should've specified that those Combos in my Pismo were internal ones mounted in the expansion bay unit. No problem at up to 24x in Toast 5. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
