I don´t try more than 2minutes..you can check it with a simulation. ;)


80min --> 82min max

Maybe that some cdr´s will do more
 
It is in a way because some burners wont go that far on a 99 min CD & U have to use overburn in your S/ware to do it

As regards PROPER overburning U can sometimes get maybe 2 mins extra on an 80 min CDR BUT whats the point >> I also find that modern CDR's dont seem to have much extra I remember when a couple of years ago it was not uncommon to get upto 5 mins overburn
 
I had to burn an 80min project and only had 74min media so I decided to give it a try overburning and my Lite-on 48246s managed to do the trick, the burned disc contains all the data and everything is readable.

One of the best ways to discover if and how much your burner will over burn with a given media, is Nero CD Cpeed. Download it here: http://www.cdspeed2000.com/ You will also need an ASPI layer (if you don't there is a Nero Aspi.dll at the "download" page).

Install it, Goto >>> Extra >>> Overburning test >>> make sure the Simulate is ticked and change the speed if you wish >>> Start. You need to do this once for each blank media spindles/packages you purchase to get correct overburning results.

Have phun! ;)
 
The test will tell you the runoff point (or the point where the drive gives up, if sooner than the end of a 90 or 99 minute CD.

Deduct 90 seconds if you want a complete leadout, or allow it to error partway through the leadout.

The reliability of the space intended for leadout only is questionable, as is the handling of it by readers.

30 seconds over seems to be tolerated well, but some drive/media combinations will be unreliable from about 40-45 seconds into overburn, moving quickly to read failure.

If you rely on heavy overburn, you need to test it all the way - writer, media and reader - and I remember one report of a cheapo audio multiCD player being damaged by a maximum overburn CD - it would seem that it may have stripped a gear in the coarse tracking mechanism.

Burners that don't reject overburn, are normally able to survive runoff conditions.
