CD / DVD Burning Tips
To avoid burning unusable, unplayable, incompatible or defective discs (a.k.a. "coasters"), we recommend
the following:
Use high quality media. Defects in the media will cause defects in your written disc.
Keep your hands off the disc... or at least the underside of the disc. Fingerprints or dirt on the bottom of
the disc can cause distortion of the writing or reading laser.
Keep your discs dust-free.
Turn off other programs, including screen savers.
Choose a slow writing speed. While higher speed recording saves time and generally results in great
discs, slower speed recordings may give you your best chance for a higher quality disc, with lower
error rates.
Keep your hard disks defragmented.
Do not leave open sessions. Unless you are storing data in increments to a recordable disc (using multi-
session recording), you should "finalise" your recording. This is necessary for compatibility with audio
CD players.
Keep in mind that some types of players, particularly DVD video players, can not play back certain
recordable disc formats.

Note:
it is not recommended that you use the DVD player while other programs are active.
This will affect the performance of the player, reducing display quality.
Note:
when you insert a DVD disc it may take a while before it is recognised and the DVD player
is launched. Please be patient and wait for a few seconds when starting a DVD title.
Region Coding Note
Region coding is a requirement by the DVD specification that prevents DVD content from being played in
areas of the world for which it was not intended. This allows films to be released on DVD in one area,
while still playing in cinemas in others. The region code on DVD discs you purchase should correspond to
the region code of your DVD drive. For European countries this code is 2.
If you purchase a DVD disc from any other region, it will not function on your system. The region code
should be shown on the back of the DVD case. It is represented by a small map of the world, with a
number super-imposed over the top; this number is the region code.
