MicroBoards Technology QD-DVD 123 UnderRun Protect, Overburn, Read Error Skip, Burn-in, CD Text

UnderRun Protect

The UnderRun Protect feature allows the recorder to use Burn Proof during recording. This setting defaults to ON and should remain on. This feature protects against making “coasters” or bad discs. Again, this setting should always remain ON.

Overburn

The default setting for this feature is OFF. This feature is not supported by the QD-DVD MultiDrive duplicator. Overburn can be used with certain CD recorders, allowing more data to be burned to the disc.

Read Error Skip

The Read Error Skip feature is used if you wish to ignore read errors during duplication. The default setting is OFF and it is highly recommended that this setting is not changed. If it is turned ON, there is the possibility of creating discs that are not the same as the master.

Burn-in

The Burn-in function is used to test the operation of the QD-DVD MultiDrive duplicator and is for service purposes only. This function should only be used if directed by Microboards Technical Support.

Load Default

The Load Default feature will set all the values back to the factory default settings.

ISRC & MCN

The ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) & MCN (Media Catalog Number) feature allows you to copy this information from a CD audio master to the blank disc. The default is OFF.

Switch USB Mode

The Switch USB Mode allows you to enable or disable the ability to use the QD-DVD MultiDrive recorder drive as an external burner for your PC. Selecting ON will allow access to the USB Mode menu, which will appear as menu item 10. Selecting OFF will hide the option in the main menu.

The QD-DVD MultiDrive cannot use any function while operating in USB Mode.

CD Text

This feature allows CD-Text content to be copied from master to blank. The default is OFF.
