Burning with encore

[Clayton]

I didn't know where to put this question, but here it is. I have been burning clips to dvd with encore (no editing). My only choices for burning are 4x or 2x. I have used TY -R which say 16x. Reading the help files it said the speed is limited by the burner. I have ASUS DRW-2014l1 which should burn up to 20x. Anyone know how to change this? or what the problem is?

Hi Clayton. Have you tried 'googling' to see if the burner has been tested with Encore by Adobe?

Well I stumbled across the answer myself. I had been burning the rewritable discs which had a max of 4x. When I got a delivery of TY discs, I went straight to trying them. Now I had encore open all day just creating project after project. Well I closed out encore for awhile and when I reopened it 16x was allowed on the TY. I guess as long as I had encore open it defaulted to the first discs capacity. Anyway it now works and gives me the options of 16x, 12x, 8x, 4x.

Sorry I was so late to the party, could have helped with this one

I wouldn't recommend burning at speeds higher than 8x but it might be worth a try.
Some players can handle the discs burned at 16x but some can't.

Glad you got it figured out Clayton

They look just fine on my DVD player, which is probably the only one they will be played on. These are unedited copies and not for anyone else.
