pcservicetech is an unknown quantity at this point
Well I was always a firm believer in burning no greater than 2x on most stuff 4x if I didnt really care.

Well a few months ago my burner died, the one I have now, the burning software I use no longer gives me the 2x choice.

I have all these divx movies to burn, I burned one at 8x, when playing, scanning ahead and back ect. it drags and has to catch up, then I burned it at 20x, same software, media, settings, and the 20x plays perfect, no drag what so ever.

This is something I've sought the answer for for some time now, I read a few articles, my only explaination for it is that the burner is rated at 20x max, and when used with 20x or greater certified media, it performs best.

I would love to hear from others, one thier exp. with this, technical dat ect. and opions.
