My quest of ignorance

I, being someone that has to try everything, want to make a DVD. I have created an image in Nero thus far and everything is going to plan... but I have a CDRW drive.. but the thing is, the disc space it takes up will only be 258 megs, and thus I want to burn this onto a CD-RW and play it in my DVD player (it supports CD-RWs, but I don't know if in this way). Now, I'm getting buffer underrun every time I try, and I don't know why... it's on the hard disk, and I have plenty of cache space (in Nero).

Anyone have an idea?

I haven't tested it, I may be able to today. It doesn't really matter though, it was a stupid idea anyway :p

Have you tried slowwing your burner down?

some things you need to know.

The thing to know is not wether your DVD player can read CD-RW, if you are trying to put a movie onto a CD, you need to see if your DVD player supports VCD(Video CD) and you need to get it to the CD in the VCD format. also, It is ok to use a CD-RW disk, but make sure you dont write using the CD-RW standard, just plain CD-R, becasue the chances of that disk running on anything else other than the burner itself is small.

Heck, Id look into the DVD/CD burner Pioneer is coming out with next month

4x DVD-RW 16x CD-RW for 300$

Not bad. I think it is the DVD-RW standard..maybe DVD-R..cant be sure. There are too many DVD writing standards../:p

They said it cant burn the full 7.5 gigs onto a DVD in about 15 minutes...pretty cool.
