  1. If talking video, you'd never be able to pick the difference visually between the two anyway - it's just not worth the risk to muck around with overburning IMHO. In most cases, you'd be either doing no compression and fitting a DVD-5 without overburn, or compressing anyway to fit the overburnt DVD-5, thus you wouldn't be saving having to compress at all. B)

  2. Best way to use the program is to burn images with it - with the latest version you can also set up a burning queue B)

     

    Basically, we all reckon ImgBurn is the best image burning program around, bar none. You get a quality product, that burns DL discs like no other, a true verify process, a queue function (did I mention that earlier?), and a top forum where you can post your thoughts and questions. :thumbup:

    Santa has heard you - :blink:http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200512/s1533621.htm

     

    Santas rampage in Christmas protest

     

    Forty drunken Santas have rampaged through central Auckland, stealing from stores and assaulting security guards in a protest against the commercialisation of Christmas.

     

    The New Zealand Herald reports some of the Santas threw beer bottles, one tried to climb the mooring rope of a cruise ship and a security guard was punched during the fracas.

     

    "They came in, said 'Merry Christmas' and then helped themselves," convenience store staff member Changa Manakynda said.

     

    The newspaper says the event organiser, Alex Dyer, had warned the antics would only stop when someone was arrested.

     

    It links the incident to "Santarchy".

     

    Santarchy (www.santarchy.com) records protests going back around 10 years in the United States, with participants marking Christmas in anti-commercial manner involving street theatre, pranks and public drunkenness.

     

    Police say identification is a key issue as they try to sort out which of the 40 men and women had done what.

     

    "With a number of people dressed in the same outfit, it was difficult for any witnesses to confirm the identity of who was doing what," Senior Sergeant Matt Rogers said.

  4. Rivals my mother-in-law for length before getting to (or is that past) the point. :P

     

    @weAponX: Take a deep breath, read the guides, and Bob's your Uncle, and ImgBurn will be your best friend. Would wish you good luck - except it's not complex enough to need it. :)

  5. Um, maybe from this extract ...

  6. ImgBurn burns .ISO or similar images, it doesn't perform any type of ripping from a source disc. You will need to look elsewhere for assistance in regard to ripping a DVD to an .ISO file first.

  7. I always found IE faster on my systems than any alternate browser, although firefox 1.5 after the initial startup is pretty good.

     

    Anyone spouting that firefox is secure is severely deluding themselves. Rather, in most usual configurations it's just more secure than IE. Of course that's not to say it wouldn't be possible to set up each of them such that IE was more secure - but I don't believe you would then have equal functionality.

  8. i have trouble getting Direct Mamory Access since my wife left.

    With DMA implemented, you wouldn't need to get a replacement either. :P

     

    And LUK, this enhancement would be directly related to burning too:

    • We'd all have more money burning a hole in our pocket
    • We could verbalise our displeasure if dinner was burnt
    • We could burn all day and all night without getting nagged about being ignored

  9. Seems from some searches I did that it's something the Boss would have to activate and then should show up as "Change Display Name" in the "Personal Profile" section of "My Controls".

     

    Also seems that there can be limits set on how many times a change can be made in a given time period.

     

    Hard to be certain as looks like you can only get into the help documents / manual on Invision site if you're a customer with login details.

  10. Are you sure that the player supports them ?

     

    I've had a look at the pdf manual and it seems to make no mention of DVD-R DL discs. It appears not to support DVD+R/+RW discs either.

     

    I've also found recently that bitsetting ability on the Pioneer's is dependant upon the firmware being used, e.g. the latest patched/hacked firmware for my Pioneer DVR-108 (1.20) doesn't have bitsetting ability, got to use the Piodata 1.18.

     

    I note that there are a few threads here that discuss the patched/hacked firmware for the DVR-110 models. Some do booksetting while others don't. I also gather just from scanning over some of the posts that the official firmware doesn't do bitsetting.
