Infiniti pro media A04 1x avail. only

Writer: DVR-A04
O/S: XP Home



I'm using Nero 5.5.8.2 and the burning speed that is available to me is 1x only.. writing to a DVD-R.

The brand of the media:

Infiniti Professional - 4.7Gb
Gold top and bordeaux coloured writing surface.

I must point out, I have the DVD writer as slave on the 2nd Ide ribbon, closest to the board, a Lite-On LTR 32123S as master, at the end of the ribbon.


Is this a media problem or a Nero problem? I have just had this drive 24 hours so it might just be me being green about the edges.. :D

btw, copied an ' adult ' title perfectly at 1x.
Just under 4Gb.

Thanks for any input.

--> MEDIA isn´t "Pioneer 2x certified" --> to get 2x speed u have to use another BRAND ... like Apple or Pioneer ...
(only few media r 2x certified)

I knew the answer before you posted it, but I was hoping it wouldn't be the one that appeared (in denial :) ), as the certified media are also the most expensive, here in Ireland.. the diff. is in the region of 10euro, what's in a name... nobrand 6 Pioneer 16...
