100 min disk compability???

[sillyrabbit]

Hello im about to order some 100 Min /900 Mb Cd-r disks from www.nc-webshop.de, can any relativly new cd-r burners (1 year old) burn these? If not how can i discover how big cd-r's it can burn?
What about burn speed - i mailed the company to ask them how fast they could be burned as they had no info on this- they replied that you should always burn any disk at 8x!!!
1. i always burn at 32 x and its always ok
2. i don't have the time to burn at 8x speed - it would kill me!!!
3. Will nero 6 be able to se all 900 Mb?
(My burner burns at 32 x , i have nero 6)

THANKS FOR ALL REPLIES!!!

you wll need to set nero to overburn to 99minutes. also for the disks to be compatible with your burner it also needs to be able to overburn . most modern cd burners wil handle these disks no probs

good luck

At nero's min bar it only goes to 825-does that mean i won't be able to tell the size properly or what?
Does any of you use 100 min disks???
Any downsides?
Does the most cd/dvd support 100 min disks or has anyone had problems?

Did you fail basic math?

700 MB = 80 minutes
825 MB = ? minutes

? = 825*80/700 = 94.3 minutes, call it 95 minutes.

99 minutes would be 700*99/80 = 866 MB's of data files or 800*99/80 = 990 MB of SVCD files.

WOW YOUR MOM MUST BE VERY PROUD OF YOU!!!
1. FOR YOUR INFO I HATE ******* MATH I COULDN'T GIVE A DAMN SHIT ABOUT IT!
2. I WROTE A BLOODY POST IN 5 MIN TO GET SOME THINGS STRAIGHT- SORRY IF I OFFENDED YOUR SICK WORLD OF CD-R KNOWLEDGE BY NOT GETTING EVERY DAMN SMALL INFO FROM THE WEBSITE CLEAR -
DAMMIT WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU???

With a sh*tty attitude like that you won't get far in this forum or life for that matter,turn your caps off nobody likes being yelled at.As Gazorgan stated they are 99min CD-R's and yes most players recognize them.

Have a nice day.

Technically speaking (according to Red Book standards) there cannot be a 100-minute CD. This would violate the Q-Channel syntax of xxxx for time-coding. And since the Lead-Out must be addressed, you can't assume that 99:59 would be fair game either, since there would need to be 'time' for the Lead-Out.

While track information is stored as a two-digit code in the Q-Channel (00 for Lead-In, 01-99 for track positioning) the Lead-Out is stored as hexadecimal AA, thus limiting the number of tracks to 99 as well.

The Lead-In is generall 2 seconds. The Lead-Out would have to be similar, so would your total recording time be limited to 99:55:00?

Sillyrabbit, if you do get these 100-minute CDs, I'd be interested in knowing how much you can squeeze onto them...

Most modern burners will burn these fine but you may not be able to burn them to full capacity. Many burners max out at around 89 mins or so. But if you want to use these for movies, ie: VCDs and SVCDs then the burner is not your problem. From my experience 99 min cdrs have terrible compatibility with standalone DVD players. I wasn't able to get a single player to play the full disk properly. Most started to hiccup around the 90 min mark.

And good-ol' Indolikaa just assumed he would use 100-minute CDs for audio burning. The thought of using them for (S)VCDs never crossed my mind.
