Which kind of DVD writeable discs for my P505D-S8935 Laptop? -R or +R?

Does it matter? I think the drive in my P505D-S8935 is a + and - R drive, so which type of media is best, if either? I have found the +R media slightly cheaper in cost than the -R. If both work, great.

+R discs are supposed to be slightly more compatible.
Try to avoid cheap no name brand discs, some times you get lucky and they work, but they are more prone to errors.

Which kind of array to choose for combining several unsigned byte

Hi, I have several unsigned byte variables, and want to build them together as an array for future use in configuration saving. Could any one tell me which kind of array I should use? Or should I use "build array"?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I think you would be better off saving these items individually. It is a bit more work on the code side but it is much easier for a human to edit the file. Use a traditional ini file format such as:
[Application]
Station 1 = Enabled
Station 2 = Disabled
Logging = Enabled
Stop on Error = Yes
This is much more readable for a person. I recommend this sice you are saying this is a configuration file. Generally these will be open for editing by a person.
If you go with some criptic array format such as
Parameter = Enable, Enable, Disable, Enable
You can write a subVI that will return cluster containing your configuration settings. You would also write a similiar subVI for saving the parameters. This VI would also accept the cluster as an input.
the user will have no clue what they are setting or modifying.
Here are some examples of VIs I use to handle configuration files.

Which kind of DVD blanks to use?

Hi - I will be burning my first DVD from the Encore project I've made. My computer internal burner is:
HL-DT-ST DVD+RW GH50N
I'm not sure what kind of blank DVDs to get - DVD-R or +R. And which one plays in most new and older players?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Even better than Taiyo Yuden/JVC are Falcon Media Pro. The printable surface is just as good and the burn surface is slightly superior. You will also find a larger selection of media types with Falcon Media Pro (such as glossy hub printable DVD-R, DVD+R DL, BD-R, etc). Falcon Media Pro discs are typically used by authoring houses due to their excellent reliability, competitive price, and of course being non-branded like all professional blank media.
Our company provides professional authoring services using our motion menu templates, and Falcon Media Pro is the only brand we use now. We pride ourselves on delivering the best quality media and packaging available to our customers, so it is very important to us that we only use the best... and Falcon Media Pro discs are currently the best in the industry. I just wish more resellers would have them so we could pick them up from a local place and not have to pay for shipping (we buy in bulk).

Compatible blank DVD-R9 Disc for DVD Brenner on HP DV7-3190EG

i just bought this jumbo, quite satisfying but those new Intel icore processors getting warm a little bit too faster. but my real problem is compatible DVD-R9 blank disc to burn lage amount of data. i've tried a bunch of them without success.
do you guys have exprerienced such problems when burning???
i'll be really happy if i could finally burn from my Laptop, not always from my old Desktop PC.

UPDATE: After hours of searching and reviewing this problem, it appears it may be due to third party burning programs, however this poses another problem. My laptop came with Roxi EMC 8 which i removed some time ago, it appears using other third party burning software causes comfilcts which may be causing my problem. I contacted Roxio but they have taken the "we are not able to help" stance due to the software being an OEM and came with teh laptop and they say I need to contact HP, which i obviously have with no success so far. Due to me removing Roxio and not having a disc to reinstall Roxio to see if this corrects the problem (and at this point i would just use the Roxio software reluctantly just so i can have my laptop back) I am stuck and it appears no one knows anything on how to fix it, Roxio will not help but I am hoping HP will since according to Roxio, this needs to be supported through HP. HP, can you please help me, i cannot use my CD/DVD drive most of the time and it appears you are my only hope. Here is what i got from the Roxio website about how it needs to be handled by the manufacturer, in this case HP: "If you have an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) version of Roxio software, please note that it is supported by the vendor that bundled or installed the Roxio product with their hardware or software. For more information about OEM support policies, please read the article What is OEM software? " Please help HP, you have to have an answer to this, is there a place I can download the Roxio software that came with my laptop or is there a Roxio Uninstaller that would completely remove the program as there are bits still threre, my laptop is a HP DV7-1245dx. please help.........

How can I tell which kind of RAM is correct for my iMac G5?

How can I tell what kind of RAM chips are correct for my iMac G5? It has two slots and can take up to 1 Gb each slot. I would like to get Newegg chips, and want to make sure I order the correct ones.
Also, do you know a website where I can find out how to install them?

That information is in your computer's user manual. If you no longer have one then you can download it at support.apple.com/manuals/. Or you can visit DataMem where they have a Mac chart of which products are needed for different Mac models.

Has anyone used successfully some kind? And which?

Which recovery dvd to get for my HP 2000 laptop with Windows 8

Hello again. I recently posted re: an HP 2000 laptop that is really bad off. It appears to be full of viruses, and is missing so much that I cannot even do a refresh. If I try it states unable to complete, etc. as files missing. Also, the program 24x7 help seems to have taken over, but if I try to remove it, it states it is no longer there. Let's just say I may be a newbie at a lot of this, but I have been able to get other machines back to normal, and this no. Needless to say I contacted HP and it is no longer under warranty. They stated for 99.00 for I believe 1-2 hours that a tech would help me out over the phone, or for something like 14.99/month I could sign up for tech support. I just want a restore dvd/thumb drive, and I asked, but NEVER offered. I really believe I can get this machine working properly again, but will have to look elsewhere for restore media. Some of you may scoff at this, but I have found numerous HP restore dvd's on Ebay. The machine has Windows 8 64 bit, but a lot of the HP dvd's I have found are Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. The HP 2000 does not state anywhere if it has Pro, etc. on it, so will one of these dvd's help me get this thing back to square one? I realize all personal stuff, etc. will be wiped out, but it is a no go as it sits anyway. Also, when I have tried to find the drivers on this site for the specific model/product number or this HP 2000 I am trying to fix I get nowhere. An suggestions there? Thank you very much in advance for any help/advice. FYI, I am not going to call HP support again, so I need other options. Thanks.

Hello Paul. Thank you for the information. I must have typed the the model number wrong last time. I tried again, and got to the page you mentioned. It does not state anywhere if I can request as a dvd, or thumb drive. Do you know if there is a way to specify? I would prefer in thumb drive format myself. It's $31.00, but if it gets the machine up and running well worth it. Thanks again!

Which Recovery Media DVDs are unique for each delivered pc?

This is related to the other thread: what is "boot media" and "data media"
Having just finished making recovery media for the E520 I've just purchased for my daughter, I'm soon going to need to repeat the process for the other identical E520 I've just purchased for my other daughter.
I'm lead to believe that the Windows 7 media is unique for each pc, but during the creation of the recovery media, the process created 4 x DVD.
1. Bootable CD/DVD.
* Volume label: CD_ROM
* 305 MB
2. Recovery DVD 0.
* Volume label: RCD_AppCD0
* 3.62 GB
3. Recovery DVD 1.
* Volume label: RCD_AppCD1
* 4.04 GB
4. Recovery DVD 2.
* Volume label: RCD_AppCD2
* 1.22 GB
Do I need to make another complete set of 4 x CD/DVD or is only one of these unique for that pc hardware?
This is for a Thinkpad E520 (1143CTO) with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If the systems really are identical you don't really need to make another set, the set you made will work. That said, it can't be a bad thing to have two sets in case one set get's damaged, lost or whatever.
In such situations I prefer wearing belt and braces.

My new iMac is not recognizing DVD R discs for burning. Help please?

Fuji and Verbatim DVD+R not being recognized in DVD burner in iMac. Burned audio CD's just fine.

If you want to save yourself a lot of headaches go out and buy a Tray Load external DVD burner that connects to the computer by USB.
The Apple, Not So, Superdrive is very picky about discs you can use. Or simply your new Mac came with a bad Superdrive.

Select multiple playlists for burning to DVD Data disc?

Hi, i need to burn about 5 playlists to a DVD Data Disc for temp backup, iTunes only is allowing me to select one playlist at a time. Of corse one play list is about 300 meg and this is totally wasteful of a DVD.
Anyone know how to burn multiple playlists to a single disc? maybe some other app can read iTunes's playlists and provide burning?
I want each playlist to create a self titled folder on disc with the tunes in each.
Thanks

Hi man, good idea.
Unfortunately, in iTunes, the "Burn Data Disc" button disappears when the folder is selected, in addition to the burn menu item. The burn button reappears when a single playlist inside the folder is selected, unfortunately again, more than one playlist cannot be selected.
It does appear iTunes can burn only 1 single playlist to a disc or the entire library and nothing in between which is very problematic for me right now.
Sadly the "Back Up to Disc" option in the File menu provides the following options :
"Back Up entire iTunes library and playlist"
"Back Up only iTunes Store purchases"
This appears also to be useless.
Toast 8 won't import exported iTunes XML playlists either and just burn the tracks in each playlist to a folder on the disk.
Suppose we need "iTunes Pro" to do something simple as I require :-((

How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

How to convert a DVD disc for use in Final Cut Express 3.5

I have a DVD disc of a conference which I would like to edit in FCE 3.5.
I would like to be able to import it into my FCE project, ad use it without having to the render it in FCE.
Is it possible to rip or import the disc (with Handbrake?) and then export the resulting file so it can be used in FCE. I am especially keen that when the file is imported, it doesn't have to then be rendered. I have had a number of problems with QuickTime files being imported to FCE where they then need to be rendered in the timeline before I can use them.
If anyone can suggest the following I would be very appreciative:
1/ how to import the DVD disc- Handbrake?- what settings are best to use? MPEG4, H.264...
2/ once imported to my Mac Pro, how do I convert it for easy use in FCE.
Just to show you that I did try this before posting to this forum, I tried the following:
1/ imported as a h.264 file with Handbrake (2hr video created a 2GB file)
2/ opened this file in an app called "MPEG Streamclip" and exported the file as a QuickTime file, and set as "Apple DV".
3/ BUT... the resulting file reached 17GB and then when imported to FCE, it couldn't be played in the timeline until I rendered it first- I didn't start this as it would have taken hours and hours!!
Any help or tips would be great
Thanks,
Simon

DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
VisualHub (23.32$)
Drop2DV (free)
Cinematize >60$
Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
