32. Conclusion
8X DVD-R
We burned 4315MB of a DVD-Video compilation on 24 different DVD burners. We used the maximum allowed writing speed for each drive. In some cases, the reported speed was 12X while in a few 4X.
First, we transferred the movie to the hard disc with DVD Decrypter in DVD-Video format. Then, we used the latest version of Nero Burning Rom software to burn the VIDEO_TS file to the discs. More information about each burner, its respective firmware revision as well as the speed and the time needed for a complete burn are given in the following table.
