LG GMA-4020B - What works with it?

[Ron Cahill]

Could some nice person tell me "without prejudice" which DVD authoring tool CLEARLY works with this burner - because I haven't discovered one?
Any positive info would be genuinely appreciated.

I use a similar drive.

I have the Firewire version of the Panasonic SW-9571.

Like the LG GMA-4020B, the SW-9571 supports DVD-R, DVD-RW, and DVD-RAM.

It also supports CD-R and CD-RW.

For photo slideshows using still images shot by my Olympus D-490, I use Ulead DVD PictureShow 2:

For more advanced DVD authoring, I use Ulead DVD Workshop:

For DVD-RAM devices, I use the DVD-VR functionality that is included in Ulead MediaStudio Pro:

The DVD-VR functionality lets you work with DVD-RAM disc camcorders by Panasonic and Hitachi.

which proggys have you tried with it?

I have one of these drives in my Gateway and I haven't run across a proggy that hasn't worked with it yet....

I've used Ulead's Moviefactory, Vegas' DVD Architect, and some other trialware that worked fine with it....

Did you but your drive at Wally World?

Hi, I got that dvd burner that works like a charm!! didn't liked the crappy software that came with it, for dvd backup I use nero but, for authoring I use dvdlab, it works perfect, menus, effects, so great! anyway, i've tested a lot of media, princo dvd-r works very great on it, but don't try princo dvd-rw, very hard to work with, if you have other question ask, i've been on lots of testing on this drive
