10.2.2009Burn your Windows Vista DVD
ISO's slowly
Microsoft has warned public
beta testers to burn
downloaded Vista ISOs to disc
at speeds as slow as 1X or 2X
in order to get a reliable
burn.
It says a
key reason behind installation
failure of Vista is that many
DVD burners cannot reliably
burn a disc at high
speed.
The
interesting tidbit was
included in the release notes
for the interim update to
Vista Beta 2 (build 5456.5;
not publicly available) and
sheds light on the magnitude
of the problem of unreliable
DVD burns.

21.12.2006New RealPlayer allows YouTube video download
http://www.realnetworks.com/>R
eal Networks has announced a
new version of their
RealPlayer today that will be
available as a PC-only public
Beta in June. The player
allows users to download and
organize nearly all embedded
internet video content (Flash,
WMV, QuickTime) including
content from popular video
sites like YouTube, Comedy
Central and Cnet.
The
player was demonstrated for me
and actually looks pretty
impressive. The new video
download feature integrates
fairly elegantly into your Web
browser (yes, it works on
Firefox). It works by
temporarily displaying a
small, fairly unobtrusive
download tab in the right top
corner of any video content it
detects on a given Web page.
It's even able to record
streaming internet video in
real time.
It looks
like a great improvement over
the slow, intrusive RealPlayer
I remember. One feature it
lacks, however is the ability
to export your downloaded
video content to an
iPod-compatible format. You
can, however, use RealPlayer
burn your downloaded videos to
CD and if you pony-up some
money for RealPlayer Plus,
they give the ability to burn
video content to DVD. Some
small improvements have also
been made to speed up the
load-time of the application
and cut-out many of the
annoying installation
questions.

01.06.2007Yahoo: Burn Your DRMed Tracks to CD Now
Yahoo has become the latest company to abandon customers who bought tracks from its music store encoded with DRM (digital rights management), drawing
fire from the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF).
On Sept. 30, Yahoo will shut down the servers that are needed to reauthorize music
purchased from its failed Unlimited Music Store if it is transferred to a new PC, Yahoo said in an e-mail to customers. The rule to designed to slow
music piracy. Re-authorization is also needed if someone upgrades their PC's operating system.
The only workaround for customers
wanting to listen to their music on a new or upgraded computer after this date is to burn the tracks to a CD and then reload them on a PC.

05.03.2009London to have satellites that monitor your speed
In a trial that can only be described as Big Brotherly, London is going is going to start trials of attempting to stop speeders from space. The
basic idea works around that the vehicles are equipped with information about speed limits for public roads. A satellite will monitor the speed of
the car vs. the pre-installed data to determine if the car is speeding. If the car is found to be speeding then one of two things can happen. The car
can either be slowed down by the satellite (voluntary mode) or the car can alert you that you need to slow down but won't actually adjust the
vehicles speed (advisory mode).

11.05.2009Breakthrough in Blue Lasers Yields 10X Write Times
Nichia Corporation of Japan
has announced a new
blue-violet laser that can
fill up a 54GB double-layer
disc at more than 10X record
speed, compared to typical 2x
and 4x Blu-ray/HD-DVD format
disc recorders. In other
words, instead of a 50 minute
write-time at 2x, the future
holds a 10 minute write-time
at 10x. According to blue
laser expert Steven DenBaars,
the key to faster write times
lies in the power of the
laser. Faster burn times allow
the disc to be rotated at a
higher speed. A 2X device can
sustain a write speed of only
8.99 Mbps, while a 10X laser
disc recorder can achieve a
writing velocity of 44.9
Mbps.
Nichia's new
blue-violet semiconductor
laser diodes can reportedly
operate at 320 mW
(milliwatts), while the
average current consumer grade
blue laser devices are in the
range of 20mW. " Writing
speed is totally dictated by
the output power. The more
power you have, the faster you
can spin the disk ,"
DenBaars said. The UCSB team,
led by blue laser inventor and
former Nichia researcher Shuji
Nakamura, recently
demonstrated the world's
first nonpolar blue-violet
laser diodes. The technology,
which is still two to four
years away, could eventually
produce blue laser diodes that
operate in the range of 500
mW.

claims that the new BDR-205 burner has been designed with a low vibration mechanism that will improve writing accuracy over the current generation of
burners. The burner will also be able to read and write DVD media at 16x and CD media at 40x.
