If you’re doing runs of 2000 you should definately go with Replication..or pressing as you call it. Usually anything over 1000 or so you should always go with replication if you can. DVD-R’s are a lot more compatable than they used to be so duplication is still a very good option if you’re doing a lower quantity of discs. You will still occasionally get a few discs here and there that people won’t be able to play but there isn’t much you can do about that. Most replication houses won’t even touch an order under 500, and if they do…you will pay a LOT more for it.

I’ve always reccomended that you build your own…VERY easy to do and will save you a TON of $$$!!
Controller cards here https://shop.ily.com/c_75.htm
Case here https://shop.ily.com/c_28.htm
Drives here https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827129161
Of course you can always replace the drives with whatever model you prefer. I just build six 1-7 Duplicators using these parts a while ago and everything has been wkring fine…just install the latest firlware for the Pioneer drives if you do go with them.

You need to select the first video clip, then set the end action to play the second clip….and then the end action of the second clip to play the 3rd clip…and so on.

From what I remember it was about $25,000 for a complete turnkey system. We bought it a couple years ago though.

We use a Sonic Fusion system with a SD-1000 encoder card and always get great results. As said before, a lot depends on the source material though.
-
Our SD-1000 card gives us great results at lower bitrates. We easily get 2 1/2 – 3 hours on a DVD with good quality….or course the source tape must be of high quality to start with. Usually ours are either Digi-Beta or DV-Cam

Looks like the 109XL drive will read RAM discs…or is supposed to at least…but not just the standard 109.
-
I’ve never seen anywehere in the specs for the 109 that it is able to read DVD-RAM discs. I know of very few DVD-R or +R burners that can. You normally need a seperate DVD-RAM drive in order to read and burn those discs.

I’ve build many duplicators using these cards and they work great. They are only a 1 70 7 card though https://shop.ily.com/P_709.htm
