do you really plan on burning 90 and 99 min cd-r's? if not, i would suggest the 2500 for its quality burns and price.

Can many CD-Roms and CD/DVD players read 90/99 min CDs? Why the need to burn those.

[gentlejax]

I dont need the DVD writer to burn 90 minute CD-rs but I might need to burn a movie that is longer than 90 minutes. I could care less if it burns cd-rs at all. i have a cd-r burner already.

I take it you've realised that a movie that goes for 90 minutes doesn't necessarily take 90 minutes of AUDIO space allotted on a CD...

I just bought a spindle of DVD+Rs that are 120mins.
What Gives????

[rhegedus]

Is this a joke?

Length of video on a DVD is dependant on the bit-rate. The higher the bit-rate, the shorter the length of video stored and vice versa.

[loughary]

Come on be easy, we forget that we were newbie’s at one time. Like its been stated the total amount of video that can be put on a DVD depends primary on the bit-rate of the video as well as the audio format.

[gentlejax]

Excuse the noob question. I have been focused on what hardware I wanted to buy rather than what the exact procedures are to record dvds. Because of this I asked a noob question.

I know the answer now and the thread can be removed before flaming starts.

I am not afraid to admit I am a newbie. I have not gone by time on cd's for a long time. I saw the time on these new DVD+R's were 120min. I still don't know exactly why the put time on them if nothing goes by them.

[Kingnog]

Oof...ok. If you put the dvd in a standalone dvd recorder (one that you hook up to your tv), it will be able to burn 120minutes of video/audio on it. And that, also, depends on what setting you choose on the standalone recorder.

**ALL DVD'S HOLD THE SAME AMOUNT OF DATA!** (unless its a double-sided or a dual-layered one)

[yellotang]

HAAA! Thought So.

Or unless its a dvd-ram or maybe an 8cm dvdr..

[Kingnog]

Or unless its a dvd-ram or maybe an 8cm dvdr..

The newest dvd-ram's (the ones i have) hold 4.7gb. And 8cm..come on, thats just common sense! smaller = less data
