How fast Does DVDecrypter Rip for you??

[Bluesilo]

I get an average of 2.1x

Yet I can write a dvd at 4x

Should be dvd writer beable to read these faster or is everyone getting times of 2x from dvdecrypter

I read that DVD writers will only rip dvd's at a max rate of about 2-3x, which is consistant with my experience with my DVD writer.....however DVD-ROM's will rip at around 7-8x which is also consistent with my experience. I beleive it has something to do with protecting the laser in a DVD writer, but not really sure. So basically yes, I believe the speeds you are getting with your writer are the max.....I have checked my DMA settings and they are max, so that does not make a difference.

Samsung DVD-rom..............7-8X average (but it goes as high as 14-15X)

TDK 440N DVD multiformat writer...............4X average (sometimes 6X)

Pioneer 105 DVD writer............................2X

Most new DVD writers and Roms have thier ripping speed intentionally limited by the manufacturers to try and disuade people from ripping discs. If you want a fast ripper try and get your hands on an old DVD rom before this practice was common-place.
