Try other media. Otherwise you can disable Smart-burn in Nero. That will let you burn at whatever speed you want.

Seconded. You probably need better media. Fuji 48x is good, and I bet it will burn at 52x.

babyloc86: SmartBurn limits the recording speed so that your burning quality won't be bad. You shouldn't disable it, because your media probably isn't good enough to burn at the maximum speed of your drive.

Harrier, you need to recognize the difference between humor and harshness. :wink: Please don't be a harrier, Harrier. :D

Ian, there is a good Internet Writing Guide that could be a required CDRLabs University course. :lol:

Well, it sounded a bit aggressive..
You do realize that, sometimes, one cannot insight other's strain of talk through a text based conversation.
Anyway, my bad.
I take it back.

Burned Lite On 522446 w/Taiyo Yuden CD-Rs

I burned some FujiFilm (TY) Dye 1, 48x rated CD-Rs, and on nero they only show up as 16x compatible. When using tdk (ritek) or Imation (CMC Magnetic) nero detects them being 48x compatible. Can anyone help w/this? I upgraded to the latest firmware on the Lite-On website also. Thanks!

I hate digging up old threads, but I'd like to throw in my 2 cents for the future. He must probably had a faulty drive, that happened on my Mad Dog 52x, InfoTool only found it as a 48x drive. Has nothing to do with the media, it is just a 48x drive. Oh well, I guess I'm a little late helping that guy.
