Toshiba Sd H903a Hd Dvd Desktop Writer
Anybody on the forum with a sucesfull Toshiba burn ?
I'm trying to locate a user who has succeeded in burning a HD DVD disc on this burner / General feedback , software & issues would be much appreciated. A Forum approved reseller / online orders would be highly appreciated. I'm staying in S-A / So far nobody in our country could help me / All the salesman has got a sheep like expression on their faces when i do enquiries. Herman. |

Who Has a Toshiba HD-DVD Burner?
Herman, who do you know has a Toshiba SD-H903A HD-DVD burner? I can't even find anyone that has one for sale, let alone someone that's used one. I swapped e-mail with Toshiba asking about the burner about a month ago, and they said they're not selling it as an independent drive/burner, but only as a component of a complete computer. If you know anyone that is selling an SD-H903A, please let me know! I want to buy one! (then I'll tell you how it worked out.)
Max. PS, I've burned a lot of HD-DVD video on standard SD DVD-R stock which runs fine in the current batch of HD-DVD players. It's just limited to 20 to 40 minutes (20 for single layer, and 40 for dual layer DVDs) Quote:

Max,
I've nailed a Toshiba reseller in S-A to source the product for me. They will definately be for sale as standalone burners. Early news from the reseller / The units is out for shipping worldwide as from next month. I'll contact you if there's positive news. Greetings Herman. |

Max,
What program do you use to burn HDV to DV-R disks? What settings? |

SD H903A burners
In regards to the last question - Pinnacle Studio 10 (or 11 or 12 or whatever they're up to now) can burn HD-DVD to regular dual-layer DVDs. I think they're getting about twenty minutes of hi-def video onto them.
I have checked every US source I can find and nobody yet has HD-DVD burners to sell as component item. By missing out on the hobbiests and wedding/event videographer market, HD-DVD may be sealing their fate relative to Blu-ray. |

Burning HD-DVD with Pinnacle Studio 10
Correction - those DVD-9s will hold up to 36 minutes of HD-DVD - perhaps enough to do wedding videos with, split to two discs - wedding & reception.

That might be a useful option for customers with HD-DVD players, but it would be easier to encode to WMV-HD at ~6 Mbps and put the whole video on a single disc to play on a computer. Or use Blu-ray. :-)
