Re: DVD duplicator tower
I used imgburn to calculate the possible layer breaks to choose out. Only 2 average options.
1 @ 1:55:12sec -> I checked it and yes indeed, here is the layer break -> about 1sec of freezing video during action. But after that It plays further. 2@ 1:57:21 -> This one will be better because it starts with a new chapter. You wont "notice" the layer break. I think because the disc is so full (4hours on dual layer!) I only get those 2 options. Is that right? |

Re: DVD duplicator tower
Hi Tom,
I generally use ImageBurn to make the image. You can set a layer break anywhere that you have a chapter point. So if you want an additional point where you can create a layer break just set a new chapter point there when you are authoring your DVD. One of the options in Imageburn when creating a dual layer image is to set a Seemless layer break. Selecting that will usually get rid of any annoying pauses. |

Re: DVD duplicator tower
I have an Acard 1-7 DVD Duplicator and cant fault it at all.
Could have it 6/7 years. This is a newer version. http://www.rivieramultimedia.co.uk/P...318&PGFLngID=1 |

Re: DVD duplicator tower
I have got a CopyBox 3 "PC connected" which can either load the images directly from my pc harddrive onto it's own build in HD or copy directly from a dvd and also to the build in HD if needed, I find it easy to use like that as I can first directly transfer between pc and duplicator and leave the image on the duplicators HD, in that way I can quickly make additional dvd's if I get a new request. Not that this is a hugh timesaver, it's just a bit more convenient. The duplicator fan's make a lot of noise which can get on my nerves when I have to make many dvd's.

Re: DVD duplicator tower
i have my acard duplicator ARS-2033. I got the read source disc error. This happened when switching the layer break I think. I use verbatim discs.
Yesterday went fine but I changed the layer break with imgburn. That changed layer break dvd was now my source dvd. it played fine on my dvd player with the new layer break... It seems the dvd's play fine on my pc that were inside the duplicator? |

Re: DVD duplicator tower
I did a prescan on the "failed" master disc. After a few seconds it says prescan ok.
I think this not good because I tested the good master disc from the day before and that prescan taked several minutes or longer and then it said prescan ok. So if prescan doesn(t work the master disc is bad? It played fine on my dvd player before copying. |

Re: DVD duplicator tower
bruce,
it worked great. with my new sata acard 1-5 duplicator i had after 25 minutes my discs copied with the older one (second hand) it took about 50 minutes! no sata interface this is a dual layer that contains 4 hours of movie! sometimes 1 or 2 discs were not ejected but the duplicator starts automaticaly again to duplicate those failed ones. 2nd time it always worked so no discs were lost. But 90% of the 80 discs duplicated good from the first time |
