rds_correia Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 So it's:2,297,888 Sectors = 4706074624 Bytes = 4595776 KB = 4488.0625 MB <-- being less than 4531 MB and hence too small. = 4.38287353515625 GB Excellent post LUK!. May I ask where you got those figures? In all honesty through all the years that I've been burning DVDs I have seen lots of different figures posted/written all over the internet. For instance, if you take wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD you will read 2,298,496 sectors for DVD-R SL (4,707,319,808bytes) and 2,295,104 sectors for DVD+R SL (4,700,372,992bytes). I'm just curious because I'm thinking about coding a small tool that calculates single pass video encoding (of legit video contents) and I would really like to know the exact amount of sectors. Not that a difference of 608 sectors can screw my calculations but I thought, if I'm gonna try to do something useful I might as well do it properly with accurate figures ;-). Thanks in advance. Cheers
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Put a disc in your drive and read it from the info panel on the right. Drives do seem to jump between 1 of 2 numbers when they initialise the discs though - and of course DVD+R is different to DVD-R.
