DVD+R 4.7GB 1-16x speed - will it be read and can i burn it on...

Hi,
Can such a DVD be burnt and or read on the new MacBook Pro's 8x SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)? It says on the DVD that one has to check whether the drive supports 16x speed DVD+R discs...
Thank you for your guidance!
Best,
Jonathan

As long as the disks are burnt at no faster than than 8X, it should be readable that speed. If you need faster speed for read support because the disks were burnt at a faster speed, then I would get an external burner that supports the faster speeds. Generally speaking you shouldn't burn disks at the maximum burn speed to avoid errors in burning. The specs say:
http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/specs.html
"Maximum write: 8x DVD-R, DVD+R; 4x DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD-R; 10x CD-RW
Maximum read: 8x DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-ROM; 6x DVD-ROM (double layer DVD-9), DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD"

    How to burn DVD and can i burn the same DVD later if its having any space..?

    This is called sessions, but it is not recommended and has been largely abandoned by software developers. This was a good thing in the late 1990’s, when opticals discs were quite expensive, and file size quite low.
    applications which reportedly may do this are
    - isoBurn: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/40109/isoburn
    - others, I do not remember which ones, try SimpyBurns, Burn, Dragon Burn and LiquidCD, you will find all in macupdate.com, test which ones suit you.
    Otherwise, I do not recommend you such time consuming and inefficient solutions, optical drives are being replaces by more capacitive, cheaper and more practical solutions, like external disks. But, if you insist, you will find what you are looking for.

    If you purchase an unlocked iPhone it will work on any supported gsm network.
    Just FYI, apple will not ship outside the country in which the device is purchased. A device purchased in the Hong Kong website must have a shipping and billing address in Hong Kong.
    Also, warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.

    the format is CSV, i try to explain better what i'm doing.
    our client asked to save acquisition data with header description in an excel readable format, i've decided to use .CSV and not .TDM because it's a simple txt file and we never used .TMD but i will propose to use it.
    after some research on the internet i've found nothing to handle .CSV in CVI except from this csv_parse but i've found it difficult to be maintained so i've write it by my own hand.
    i've written two example of how to use my function to read or write and i've copyed my function used to read and write.
    in the write function i check with FindPattern if the string to be write contain some special character, if i find this i have to quote the string to respect the standard RFC4180 and if i find a quote i have to double it. aftere i've done this check i write the line in the file.
    in the read function, that is more complicated, i:
    check if the first character is a quote.
    if it's not i copy the string until the delimitier or until the end of the line.
    if it is i have a string with special character inside so:
    i find the first quote in the string. when i've found i check if it's follwed by another quote. this means that in the starting message i was writing a single quote.
    if it's not followed by another quote but it's followed by a delimiter or a carriage return i've finished the special line.
    if i don't find it it means that the special quote have a carriage return inside and i have to check the next line. before checking the next line i save this in my string.
    after this loop i check in every string if i have a double quote and i delete one.
    the main problem is in the speed of this, i'm acquiring data at 1000 S/s with 8 active channel for 60 second so i have 480000 data to be stored, divided in 60.000 row and 8 column. to read a file like that my pc stay "locked" for 15 second or more.
    i've tried to use the arraytofile function and it's extremly fast and i can also put header because the function can start from the last position in the file but the filetoarray function start from the beginning and i cannot read the header correctly. also if i'm using the european CSV with semicolon as delimiter with arraytofile i cannot select the semicolon but only the coma

    The GSM radio in the Verizon iPhone 5, 5c and 5s is unlocked and can be used on any GSM carrier, including US carriers. This is a requirement placed on them by the FCC in exchange for winning a spectrum auction. You will not be able to use the AT&T LTE network as the bands are not compatible with that phone.

  • Sending .mov file to client and can't burn to DVD

    I am sending a proof .mov file to a client that is windows based. Is there any burning software that will burn a .mov file and play on a windows machine without me converting it to a .AVI file? If I do have to convert it to a .AVI file will there be resolution or quality loss and will they even be able to burn that? They have NERO as their burning software, im using toast titanium and have quicktime pro. thanks

    Toast 8 is the answer. Clients want to get something they can play EASY. DVD works on the TV and PC and needs nothing software wise. Worth the money. Plus the video quality looks good enough but really is not good enough to steal and edit.

  • Game Center will no longer load and can't sign out

    So I have iOs 7 on my iPad 2.  I have found I have had this problem since I had downloaded Angry Birds Epic.  Game Center started acting weird, logging out randomly and no being able to login in.  Now I can not log out of it in the settings menu, every time I try and click off of it and go back I am miraculously signed back in.  If I open game center the initial screen is fine but if I click on games it just goes white and sits there thinking.  I have tried everything I have seen about restarting etc.  I think the only thing I have not done is restore the system.  I have no issues with my iPhone 5.
    Any thoughts?  Is it corrupted now so I will have to restore my iPad?

    Does that include doing this? Close the Game Center app completely and reset the iPad.
    In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Queue, Program speed on multiple Serial read and other problems

    Hi,
    Working on a relatively big program on Labview that makes
    1. data acquisition from 2xSerial devices
    2. Splitting the outputs,
    3. Showing the results
    4. Doing some alghorithms
    5. Outputing to CSVs.
    I have limited knowledge on serial methodologies and quequing in labview but through reading many posts in the forum i succeded to create this program which includes the above functions.
    Although that, I have several problems which I didnt solve:
    1. The quite button on the Graphs tab is not function correctly. This results in unabling to close the VISAs. How to handle the queques that in one button I can clear all the queques and exit the program correctly?
    2. While reading both serials, the program is going slow (I have i5 with SSD drive and 8gb RAM so I don't think its CPU problem). If I disable one of the serial or sending 'nothing' to one of the serials, the program going back to normal speed. Any suggestions in this issue?
    3. Both serials works with different configuration functions - I used that as I make a trial and error and this is the best operation for each of them. Is this correct or am I missing something?
    The main VI is "NVs_V1.6.vi"
    Thanks for your answers and feedback

    You should only have 1 loop the dequeues from a specific queue.  Once an element is dequeued, that element is gone, meaning that no other loop can get that data.  You need to use a different queue for your two other loops.

  • Blank DVDs show up as read-only (can't burn DVDs)

    When I insert a blank DVD, the disk utility opens and it says the disk's capacity is 0 bytes, and it is read-only. The disk also doesn't mount, I have to eject it through the disk utility.
    I have tried two brands that have worked in the past, one is DVD-R, and the other is DVD+RW. I haven't tried to burn a DVD in at least six months, so I don't know what software or settings are different since then.

    I usually repair permissions after updates for that reason, but I did so again anyway and rebooted with the same result.
    But when I created a new account and inserted a blank disk I was asked what to do with it so I opened it with Disk Utility to see what it says about the disk. It still said, "size 0 bytes, read-only" even though when I inserted the disk it said, "You've entered a blank disk, what would you like to do?"
    So I guess at some point, 1) I set blank DVDs to open automatically in Disk Utility, and 2) for some reason Disk Utility says blank disks are read-only (or when that happens you can't write to the disk)
    Anyway, all I had to do was set blank DVDs to open in the Finder. I'm burning a DVD right now.
    Thanks for the help.

  • How do I change my computer back to being able to use American cds and dvds? I accidentally changed it when I was in Europe and can't figure out how to change it back.

    I went to Europe and watched some movies on my computer that were made there. I would just change my computer back and forth from American to European movies.

  • Is there a way to change the settings to burn onto a DVD-R v2.1/1x-16x?

    I have DVD SP v3 and I always used Sony DVD-R v2.0/1x-8x (120min/4.7gb), but now I can't find them and I've been told that they have been discontinued and can only buy DVD-R v2.1/1x-16x. Well... I can't seem to find a way to burn onto the higher speed DVD. What can I do?

    Hi:
    Wellcome to the forums!
    If you mean if there is a way to change burning speed in DVDSP the answer is no: DVDSP allways burn at max available speed.
    If you ant to control the burning speed and use a more reliable burning workflow, you can * Create a Disc Image in DVDSP * from your project and burn it using Toast and/or Disk Utility. In both cases you can change the burning speed.
    Hope that helps !
