XI. Introduction to Duplication Mode
In order to achieve 8x or higher DVD duplication performance; there are 3 factors that need to be certified as 8x or higher speed:
1.Master Disc Reading Speed
2.Computer Controlling Speed
3.Recorder Writing Speed*
*The recordable DVD media must be certified 8x or higher in order to have 8x or higher recorder writing speed.
If any or all of the above 3 factors fail to meet the 8x or up higher certification, under any circumstances, you will encounter bottleneck symptoms which will delay your duplication time and reduce your duplication quality.
When making duplications directly from the master disc to the blank disc; you often cannot maintain true 8x speed throughout the duplication process. Unfortunately, due to physical recordable DVD limitations, most DVD master discs can not be read at 8x or higher speeds continuously. Often the reader will fall behind the burners and the whole process will have to slow down.
In order to avoid this issue, first load the master disc into the hard drive and make all duplications through the hard drive. To duplicate form the Hard Drive, you need to load your DVD master disc into a Hard Drive partition. Once loaded, make copies from the Hard Drive partition as you would from the master disc. This process can be a little complicated and requires certain knowledge of the duplicator in order to operate.
To simplify this process for anyone, we introduced a new feature called “Load and Copy” under the new category “Duplication Mode”. This feature reduces the “Duplication from Hard Drive”
