Are any of you doing any of this?

How much of your business is devoted to this area?

If you are not, have you gotten any inquiries from clients? Do you plan to expand into the world of surround / authoring in the near future?

hi all,

i'd like to find out what software you're using for burning DVDs (most popular/reliable/the best)
i've bought a Sony DRU500A as OEM so no bundled software.

initially, i just want to burn data DVDs for archive and tranfer.
someone told me about "veritas primoDVD v2": would that be a recommendation?

Hi,

Just curious what kind of results people are getting from using newer DVD burners to burn Red Book CDs.

Where I'm coming from is: the system I'm putting together will definitely have a DVD burner for archiving purposes. Do I still need to add a low-jitter CD burner like PLEXTOR or Yamaha or will the newer DVD-RAM burners do this task just fine?

Hi guys! Last weel I was reading a text at terra lycos about this new self destructive DVD. Seems some stuff from 007, the movie and a new RAp big artist single is being distributed in the US employing this "new" technology.

What are your opinions about it? :w:

Ok, I've been buying surround music on DVD for about 2 months now, and I'm hooked! can anyone recommend good suround mixes? even though there arent many artists out there with surround mixes.

thanks
Joz

Hi!
Just wanted to know from friends, which format is gaining more popularity in the USA..
Seems that just now will be released the first Brazilian DVD-A, from a top hit band called Capital Inicial.
with the popularity of the DVD video, wouldn't it be easier to make it catch?

OK...now that Duxmer has opened the can of worms that is a DVD burner...I guess I would like to take it one step further...

Has anyone actually mixed to 5.1 (surround sound) or something equivalent (I know Nuendo does several different formats, but I have Cubase SX)? What is involved as far as burning to a DVD? I understand that the burning software is very, *very* expensive.

ok. am i crazy? why can't we use a DVD burner to backup our projects. isn't it a way better alternative to stock piling removable hard drives. you can buy a burner for about $250. you can buy dvd-rs for a buck a piece. you can fit roughly a half an hour's worth of 16-track, 24bit, 48kHz audio on a 4.7 gig dvd. so what gives?

hi all,

i use a DVD-RAM to backup audio projects (done on Nuendo).
it's internal SCSI-2 drive.

the problem is, copying files from and to it is way too slow.
example: 700MB project folder ==> it took 25 minutes!
i mean, it would take half that time to burn it on CD.
imagine how long for a 2GB, 3GB projects or more.
