I have used "Shintaro" & "Conia" brands right from the old days of a Pioneer AO3. I now have a Pioneer DVR8 in my G5 and it burns DVDs in Toast at 8-12x. It seems to vary depending on the content. This equates to a total burn time, including lead-in and lead-out, of approximately 14 minutes for a 2 hour movie. I have upgraded the firmware in the Pioneer to 1.18, which does allow for faster burn speeds in some cases. > > I was just wondering who was getting wide compatibility with 8x > burned media and what media they were using. >
