[MacDV] Re: iDVD iDvDidn't.

[Gerhard Kuhn]

I have burned more than 250 DVDs and I have used Apple brand 
successfully but have more often used off brands such as Ritek and Leda 
with just as much compatibility and reliability.  I only have 
experience 1x media and have heard that those using faster burning 
disks experience more problems with set-top compatibility(this was 
shortly after the faster disks were released and it may no-longer be a 
problem).
As far as OS X I have no problems and limited experience with earlier 
OSs.  It runs flawlessly on both my 12" powerbook and 15" 800 iMac, 
none of the application and system crashes I experienced working with 
Windows.  Now that Apple allows me to use the non superdrive equipped 
powerbook to work on iDVD projects to burn on a appropriately equipped 
machine my grudge about not supporting external burners is fading as 
well.

P.S. as long as the older players are out there we will have 
compatibility issues but the percentage is dropping with each new 
player bought.
