I noticed that none seemed to be willing to touch this with a 10-feet pole. So I just have to ask one thing WHY? Why record at 1X except for it to take as fscking long as possible, or is there some hardware choke point that you
neither of those reasons. I have found through experience that it can mean the difference between readable and unreadable when a disc is played in another player, especially an older one. At 1X the melting is a little deeper and can allow some older players to read the disc while it would start skipping on playback when the disc was recorded at a higher speed
Basically this too is my reason for wanting to write at 1X.
I am not sure but I believe that your not being able to record at 1X could be an issue with the drive.
Thank you, but this very drive with this very media used to burn at 1X under SuSE 8.1, so I donøt think the hardware is to blame. An other poster informs me that in particular CD-RW media may mandate a minimum write speed. Perhaps the older cdrecord did not take into consideration the media ATIP information, and the new one does. Best regards :o) Johnny :o)
