    Well, I'm trying to decide if I should go with modified (Liggy's 1.62) and be able to booktyke or keep burning with stock software (from Dell)and not be able to booktype. I ran a Nero DVD Speed test, and the results were kind of confusing...See graphs

    5X scan (Liggy's 1.62)

    Two things I noticed:

    1-Stock received a slightly better quality rating than Liggy's

    2-I'm not an expert, but highest quality results doesn't seem to have the nicest graphs when compared to their counterpart. Should I look only at quality rating for quality assessment?

    Right now I don't need to booktype since my DVD player has no problem with +R DVD's, but it would be nice if I could in case I need to play them in another DVD player like a PS2. Would you sacrifice a bit of quality for bitsetting capability?
