    ive been trying to follow the guide for burning a dvd file to blank media with nero6x. It says the max amount of data you can burn to a disc with nero is 4,475MB. The amount im trying to burn is 4,464MB. Am i pushing it too close? Whats a safe speed?

    Im using a nec 1300a external and Fujifilm dvd-rs

    Sorry for the long post, I am very new to this!
    Thanks for your help.

    ok dj sorry I think the total in megs is 4476 I could be proved wrong ....

    in gigs thats 4.36 I think .......

    in jap gigs its 4.7 gig

    in japan you get 1000mb per gig ....

    in the western world ya get 1024 hence the 4.36 gig I stated

    sorry bout education hehe but ya dvd should just fit on to a dvd -/+r if in doubt ALWAYS burn onto a rewritable first ......hence no coasters

    oohh n welcome aboard dj

    4.464, did you create that with dvd shrink? That's a fine size, that's what all my movies are at, tho i don't use nero, i use recordnow dx, so much better.

    [bold]DaOsT[/bold] the japanse really measure gigs and MB's like that? I thought only tight-arse isp companies (like telstra, ozzie telephone monopoly-, sorry, i mean company) and people who knew nothing about pc's measured megabytes in groups of 1000 kilobytes. Well, well, you learn something new everyday.

    LOL, yeah you'll soon find that you enjoy the process of copying a movie more than you enjoy watching it, and soon you'll have a 2000 dvd library, and you won't have watched a single one. ;P Have fun.
