Changing burn speed on Nero

[The Big Yin]

I only get 2 options 16x and 24x but i need less than 8x to burn a cue file

Ive tried looking in properties advanced etc but cannot find anythin HELP!!!!please

 

[MRBILLYUK]

I guess your burning to dvd ? Have you got it set on cd instead of dvd ?

 

[The Big Yin]

No its getting burnt to CD as per the instructions i have

Set to CD files selected at the final page ready to burn and 16x the slowest

 

[Colin-S]

what you burning to cd....music, games or film (bins + cue's) i always burn it at max speed and have had no problems.

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Are you burning it as an image file or as an iso file ?

 

[The Big Yin]

.cue files its a film tried it at 16x and it has failed twice

 

[Colin-S]

why not try and convert the film from bin/cue to mpeg using a program like vcdgear then stick it onto a cd.

http://www.vcdgear.com/download.html and download VCDGear v3.55 (GUI)

 

[The Big Yin]

These are the instructions that came with the film and to be honest i have tried many ways before and never got any to work I thought this would be nice and easy :-(

 

[Colin-S]

like i said above ^^ , all the films i've had that are bin's and cue's i use vcdgear to convert them to mpeg's then you can stick them onto cd. If you need help gimme a shout or add me if you got msn.

 

[The Big Yin]

How do i stick an mpeg on a cd to burn it then ??? Ill go and burn that program above and try it out

 

[byrnie]

get cuesplitter search for it on google. then try burn the files after that

Id use Daemon Tools to mount the image on a virtual drive, then 'clone' it with nero.

 

[The Big Yin]

Managed to get it to work with the instructions i started with after putting in a bigger disc however it doesnt work on my dvd but does on the portable dvd and my daughters sighs...

 

[MRBILLYUK]

It might just be down the brand of disc why it won't work on your dvd player .

When i want to burn a cue file i start nero . When the wizard opens i click on " cancel " .The along the top i click on " recorder " then " burn image " . Then choose the folder where the cue file is . Click on it then i click on burn and what ever speed i choose .

do u have to buy nero or can u download it for free?

 

[MRBILLYUK]

You can download it for free , cough , cough

Nero 6 is the one you want not version 7 , there are some issues with it apparently , don't know what issues , but 6 works just fine for me

 

[DaveJwxm]

i cant find it

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Have you got a good high speed connection ? If so pm me your e mail address , but no hotmail , yahoo etc . Its 20mb if you want it

 

[DaveJwxm]

pm'd

 

[MRBILLYUK]

^^^ You sure ? I haven't got it , lol .

Got it now

 

[DaveJwxm]

well said i had nero 6 but now ive got 7, lets just say its s**t i prefer 6 by far

 

[wozzaa]

if you managed to get our hands on 7 in a non legal way it'll only work a few times before it will just start crashing.

 

[Evil Ally]

I would recommend the "portable" version of nero 7. Not an official product but you might be able to find it It's just the main burning app in a 12mb exe. You just run the exe without having to install 900mb of shite onto your computer.

Video CDs have less error correcting information than a normal CD. If you are having trouble burning them at a normal speed perhaps the media you are using is no good?

 

[The Big Yin]

Well finally got the DVD linked up and played it but it was crap the pic kept breaking up and i know its not the film as i watched it on my laptop and no problems. Im just not gonna get the hang of this

Thanks to the guys for advice - MrB those screenshots look different to mine Ive got Nero 6 Ultra i believe its called but its an OEM version

 

[MRBILLYUK]

^^^^ What speed did you burn it at ? And what brand of discs did you use ? Its you burn it too fast on cheap n nasty discs you can get a blocky pic .

I always use discs with the ritek G05 dye for dvd . I hardly ever burn vcd's as they tend to be a poor quality pic and it shows up more on your tv .

 

[The Big Yin]

They are ritek g05 discs (cheap tho @ discexpress) but i had to burn at 8x speed as that was the lowest i could get it to burn at

I am not the brightest when it comes to this kinda thing but i like to give it a go as the film was a kvcd and came with the instructions it looked really easy

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Just copy another film and see how the quality compares . I'd say it was a poor quality film rather than the copying method .
