dvd burner

[thick]

A great bro is hooking me up with dvd platinum software.. I need to get a dvd burner that will work w/ it. what type of dvd burner do u guys recommend. and where are good places to look for them at?

try www.greenlyph.com or www.robotnik.com, they are both here in nova scotia but the prices are amazing. robotnik has both canadian and US prices, greenlyph I think only has canadian prices so if you're paying with USD it will be even cheaper. They have an NEC and pioneer dvd burner for way under $200, check them out for yourself.

The Pioneer A06 burner is great. You can get one for about 100 bucks from www.pricewatch.com.

Yes it does -R and +R. -R and +R are different types of DVD discs.

that seems like an awesome deal. Any suggestions on if it will work with dvd xcopy platinum software?

 

[stevemac]

yea, it has to work with the software, if windows reconzies the dvd burner then so will the software.

I have a version of Instant Copy. I haven't used it yet but my friends swear by it.

I downloaded a copy of DVD X copy platinum off of Newsgroups...

a good place for computer hardware is www.newegg.com or www.googlegear.com

Also, FYI thick..Almost every dvd is dull layer now...and the dvd burners only burn single layer copies..so it usualy takes TWO dvd-r's to make a "copy" of a commercial DVD. The new version of Xcopy does allow you take a bunch of crap out of the DVD..Like audio formats you won't use..deleted scenes, and extra's sometimes you can cut enough out to get the entire movie on one disc.
