@RemovenospamJason: "I have a fast PC system with a Pioneer 121 DVD-Rom & Pioneer 107 Burner.
I'm using STOMP RecordNow Max (v4.50) and when copying DVD-R to DVD-R i'm
only getting a transfer copying rate of about 5meg up to 8meg per second,
burning a full disc in about 12-14 mins on the MAX setting. I'm copying
from/to Ritek G04 brand discs.
I understand that the transfer speed should be between 8-10meg second and
burn them in about 8-9 minutes at top speed.
I'm not sure what's wrong as a friend of mine is getting the higher rates.
I've checked the settings but can't seem to figure out what the problem is.
Both drives are on the same IDE channel if that makes a difference??
Anyone let me know what may help or what I should try??"
    @nobody: "Jason,
Check the specs on your DVD reading device. You will likely discover that it
has relatively slow ripping speed for (laser burned) DVD-Rs even though it
may rip commercial (pressed) DVDs at higher speeds. I suspect this is the
bottle-neck in transferring.

    @RemovenospamJason: "I did a recent firmware update for both drives recently (the Pioneer DVD-Rom
121 is now version 1.02). Is this the correct one to go for or would some
other version benefit me?
If so, where can I get it?
Thanks

    @nobody: "Jason,
I'm not following specific ROM firmware upgrades for specific Pioneer drives
but perhaps others on this newsgroup can help you. I have seen pretty
consistent reports of slower ripping speeds when ripping from DVD-R versus
commercially pressed DVDs, and have also experienced this myself on several
different brands (including Pioneer).
