  • encoding question is it the drive or the program

    hi all…
    maybe this is easy….but we burn alot of dvd’s for a number of things…
    right now we use a combonation of roxio toast…and idvd.

    recently we have been getting alot of complaints about discs skiping or freezing…

    so that led me to the question: is it the drive or the program ?

    do i need better drives or do i need a better program to stop the issues.

    we are using g-5’s 2.0 duals with the 8x burners

    thanks

    Could very well be the media.

    Try some Verbatim Discs burned at 1x.
