I have a problem writing data discs with my PC's combi drive - the drive in question carries out extraction fine, plays CDs/DVDs no problem and burns audio discs faultlessly. When I try to burn a data disc it usually burns the data without problem then spends five minutes making clunking noises,...

Just relating an experience -- I have a VCD that I created using PSPA. Works fine on my DVD player, but not on some others.

I've been using Nero Ultra 6 flawlessly to create VCD Slide shows from pictures I took with my digital camera. When I burned a project today, the first slide show, 68 images with sound burned without...

I've been doing some research on failure patterns on my collection of dying CDRs. Recently, I put in a new PC, and went to re-read previously unreadable and marginal audio disks with it, just for grins. Imagine my surprise when my new LiteOn LTD163 DVD reader could read all the bad disks that I'd...

Now that the Fuji TYs have dried up, I'm looking into buying bulk unbranded TY spindles... Do the "Shiny Silver" TYs have a reasonably thick protective layer on the top? I'm hoping they don't have just the 5 micron coating that some bulk cdrs have... ideally I'd like to find some TYs with a...

Let me apologize if this topic has come up before. I am trying to burn an audio CD which exceeds the specified capacity the disc will allow. I ran Nero CD Speed to determine how far I could overburn. Nero CD Speed reported that the maximum capacity of the disc is 83:21:26. The audio CD I want...
