indiDVD ReWriter : Hardware Manual
IF INDI DVD DOES NOT FUNCTION:
Connecting Indi DVD to a USB 1.1 port will result in slow performance and may cause disc
•
recording errors. Connect Indi DVD to a USB 2.0 or IEEE 1394/FireWire port for best performance.
Verify that Indi DVD is connected to a functioning power outlet.
•
If Indi DVD is connected to a PC's USB 2.0 port, verify that the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 PC driver is
•
properly installed.
IF INDI DVD WILL NOT RECORD PROPERLY:
Verify that Indi DVD supports the recordable media format to which you're attempting to record.
•
Verify that the recordable media you're using is rated to record at the desired speed.
•
Verify that the recordable media is inserted into Indi DVD with the correct orientation. (Media
•
should be placed label side up in the disc tray.)
Since low quality media may not record properly, it's best to use TDK discs.
•
Verify that the drive is not connected to a USB 1.1 port. Indi DVD is not USB 1.1 port compatible,
•
due to bandwidth limitations.
A buffer underrun may have occurred. Either select a slower recording speed or select using Buffer
•
Underrun Protection in your software. Inadequate system RAM can sometimes cause buffer
underrun errors.
Disable all other functions and applications that could interrupt the stream of information.
•
Make sure that the media does not have any fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the surface.
•
Check to see if the disc already has data written on it. If the disc is rewritable, you can erase and
•
re-record it.
Use the recording software supplied with Indi DVD. Some other software may not be supported.
•
The included software does not enable making copies of commercial DVD movie discs, such as
•
those rented from your local video store. Always respect intellectual property laws.
