Burning Questions... Media & Speed please!!

[zim_zimmer]

Hello (again!!)


I have a few questions that will hopefully solve my PS2 backup queries.

First of all here is my set-up:

Sony PS2 (v6)
FLIP TOP LID
SWAP MAGIC DVD 2.0 / SWAP MAGIC CD 3.0
---------------------------------------
Philips DVDRW824 (capable of both +/- reading/writing)
RiVision DVD-R's (which I was lead to believe are Ritek GO4's)
DVD Decryptor



Questions....

1. What media is best to use with my Philips, or in general?

2. What speed is best to burn a PS2 game on? (I was burning on 4x because the RiVision DVD-R's that I#ve got say 4x on them)

3. What program is best to use for backups?

4. Can you burn a game 'on the fly'?

5. Why everytime when I press X to load up a backup on my PS2 does the border go pink, but when I press [] about 70% of the time the game loads up?

6. Thank you!!



Cheers

1 Media = ritek go4's (branded ritek is my personal choice)
2 burn speed = i use max which on my burner is x4
3 software = dvd decryptor
4 i would imagine you can, but i burn the image on the hd, then burn the disk.
5 i use the same filptop and magic disk as you, I have never had a bad burn, and never had a disk which failed to load, maybe be im just lucky.
6 you are welcome
