calweycn Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Does anyone know of a registry hack or anything that will allow it? ImgBurn gives some error message when you try to do it. It won't even attempt to over-burn on DVD-R, but it should work in theory. Is it a hardware issue that drives simply refuse to do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 It's a hardware thing and should work automatically if the device supports it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calweycn Posted September 29, 2006 Author Share Posted September 29, 2006 It's a hardware thing and should work automatically if the device supports it. Do you know of any drives that support over-burning DVD-R? I have a BenQ 1640 and it won't even try to over-burn them. I can over-burn DVD+R to like 4650 MB with SolidBurn off. No problem. I read that no drives can over-burn DVD-R yet. They need new firmware to allow it. CDspeed's overburning test shows that DVD-R should over-burn even more than DVD+R.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Doesn't cdspeed simulate an overburn though? i.e. it doesn't actually write to the disc? (like 'Test Mode') If any drives can do it, it would probably be mentioned over at cdfreaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
