Hey ,

I am having this problem with my brand new LG-GSA 4040B which basically says you can not burn at this speed because the drive doesn't let you blah blah so it goes back to 2x to write...any idea what might be causing this?

If that is the only brand you've tried, you should try other discs. Sometimes DVD burners don't like certain discs. Make sure they are quality discs also. Try some Sony 4x or Apple 4x.

Are you sure? Shrink can bypass the CSS protection in DVDs. You must be doing something wrong. I've used it for months and never had any problems.

Well, I tried couple more times w/ the " Open Disk " option and it finally worked, that was weird. I am now doing it for another movie and never caused a problem.

oh and should I be writing onto my media as AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS? or should I just copy all the files onto the disc, like all chapters and audio etc?

It depends on what burning program you are using. With Nero you move the individual files into the Video TS folder.

DVD X COPY (Express), Possibly the best solution available, will rip and burn to disk in less than 30Min using DVD-R 4X media, hassle free no thinking on your part, two steps involved rip then burn, uses compression software will fit a 9GB movie on a 4.7GB disk with no lost quality.
