  1. i just got my nec 3540a.

    i'm using TTG02 dvd-r 8x and ProdiscF01 dvd-r 8x media.

    when i use dvd decryptor to burn an ISO file, the write speed starts at 4.1x, then 2 minutes later, goes to 6.0x, then 2 minutes later, goes to 8.3x, 2 minutes later goes to 7.3x, then 1 minute later goes to 8.3x, then 1 minute later the burning process is complete.

    takes about 9 and a half minutes for a full dvd-r disc.

    is this normal?

    i remember using my cousins pioneer dvr-108 with the same media, the write process started at 8x and stayed at 8x till burning was complete (about 8 minutes)

  2. by the way, the "device buffer" on dvd decrypter doesnt always stay at 100%.

    it goes down to 85% to 98% every 8 seconds. one time it went down to 20%.

    pc specs:

    p4 2.8ghz hyper thread
    200gb hdd
    512mb ddr
    geforce 6600 128mb

    I am right there with you having the same trouble with my NEC. My Pioneer 109 has issues with the buffer also, so I thought I would try one of these drives. Ultimately, I stuck with my 108-best burner I have ever had.

    P4 3.2 800 mhz FSB
    1.5GB PC3200
    Plenty of hard drive

  4. My Pioneer A06 and LG 4081 act in the same way. Buffer goes down to 0 and up to 100% all the time. I've tested everything. It happen when phisical free memory goes down for an unknown reason.
