ok, thx for the reply. Good thing I didn't try and fix it. :-)

It does that encoding DVD's too. It takes about twice as long as the playtime to encode a video (standard TV resolution - still better than video tape) on my 2.4 Ghz Pentium 4. That doesn't include the time that the drive uses during the actual burning of the DVD-R either.RobertVASim flying most weekends on FlightAdventures.com multiplayer.
