What Is a LightScribe DVD?

[chickenpoper]

lol the part at the end where it says lets make your lightscribe discs today is bs they probably charge alot and many people probably have lightscribe dvd/cd drives at home and the discs for these aren't too expensive

[batterycock]

if you put a slice of bread in your lightscriber it will burn a image on to it, go on try it.

[EpicBunty]

@batterycock YOU FUCKER!!

[MiZoSpaDe]

you can tell , lightscribe technology so cool :)

[amirgelman]

i have a questions - please answer! :)

i wanna use lightscribe technology for like 100 copies of music cds (my own music). could those burned cds have a problem being read by most music players??? (car radios, stereo systems, home computer with old cd drive etc...)

[ToM2kWooT]

@amirgelman no, the lightscribe only affects the display portion, it only prints a label. It should be able to be used in all of those listed.

[aveo85]

nice music

[333TehNinja333]

anyone know if you can buy DVD+R DL 8.5 BG 2.4x litescribe?

[giorgio200791]

@333TehNinja333 yep u can

[vasquez123100]

can i do this with dell?

[BRUTALSHANZ1988]

is it me or has this technology been out since the ps2 era.on the ps2 discs UK pal version im referring to,on the data side it has multiple playstation logos lasered directly to the data side.i don't know lightscribe sounds new to me.but i has always wandered how sony was capable of burning their logo over the data side.but i think they used this technology to authenticate their authenticity.i don't know?.answers on a postcard please.

[soundspark]

@BRUTALSHANZ1988 The Playstation logos are actually stamped along with the data.

[Jim4575]

My Light Scribe has been giving me Error 4231 just as it's started to Scribe a DVD or CD. I like it but with this error problem it isn't any use.

[ronoj2]

so it engraves writing on the dvd?

[l105525]

@ronoj2 yea looks like it. Its pre-installed on the pavilion dv6

[Inzendi]

You have to buy DVD- or + Rs that are lightscribe enabled. You'll see on the container, it says lightscribe. If you can't find the word or still aren't sure about it then simply look at the disk. Ones that work are completely blank other than a light coloring.

[layerofdoom]

@rax7 ur trying to burn data, as a lightscribe? what do u mean?

[FlycoFx]

No it does not.

You have to buy special Lightscribe Dvd's. The lightscribe unit can "burn" darker colors into that special layer. You might compare it with a tatoo.

[Icebeam47]

you can put data on ANY dvd or cd but lightscribe dvd's you can put a picture on the non-data side

[MasterSighlis555]

Do you need a certain kind of DVD to do this or any?

[GucciBoy347]

special dvd

when u buy a dvd make sure its lightscribe compatible

[elpicos8091]

you need a specific type of dvd or cd it should say light scribe on it when you buy the discs

[HalfTheSpeed]

any but the ones they sell are best

[RKProduktions]

When I try this with mine, the discs becomes very pale and its hard to see what Ive written on the disc..

Any help please, I want it to look like those in the vid..

[TedGreene]

I haven't done lightscribing yet, still messing around with it. But I know you can change the setting to have it burn darker than normal, however it will take longer. Maybe that would work.

[haltli]

so wat is stopping me from ... buying halo 3 and then making a lightscribe fake copy and returing it to the store.. free halo 3

[Maxer5ooo]

Lol.

[sim2lew]

The fact that Halo 3 is more than 1 colour is stopping you.

[screwdriver1020]

What's stopping you is that retailers won't return video games.

[ToRoNtOGuYY]

The fact that ur gayyyyyyy

[bladebomb]

nothing really... your morals perhaps?

[XboxliveAddict314]

I have a lightscribe burner but I never used it. I'm to impatient to wait 30 minutes a dvd. I just use a sharpie, lol.

[hhs786]

hey, how do i use it with nero... its a keygen serial tho... does it matter? thanks

[XboxliveAddict314]

I don't know. I don't use it or Nero.

[heartsineurope]

how long do lightscribe Drives normally last lets say how many dvds can i burn?

[riverspaz]

for ever... it is a laser

[heartsineurope]

dude i really don't think you know what u are talking about every drive has a lifespan and i already found the answer to be a general of 20 months and also lasers DO NOT last forever LOL cheers!

[darkalligator]

all my pcs have lightscribe :) for the best labeling quality is a little bit slow but is worth the time. it wnt last forever, but the label will last if you take care of the disc.

[l3admki3]

do i need a lightscribe burner? or just simply a normal dvd burner with a lightscribe dvd?

[tazerfire]

lightscribe burner

[foullump]

Is it only black and white, or can I burn with color?

[toggomusic]

b&w

[BBnose]

my experience; don't touch the print surface of the lightscribe disk when it's just finished printing and still warm. Otherwise, it will damage the print image and leave your finger print or scratch on the disk.

[tazerfire]

no, they need a lightscribe surface.

[totalembarrasment]

is it ok to burn labels on regular cds...i just put in a regular cd in the lightscribe cd drive and burned

[diegodaudt]

Do you turn the dvd over? (on the part the old label should be)

please help

[riverspaz]

yes you turn it over

[14309981]

how long time does it take to make one lable do i have to buy diffrent typeof DVD for labling ...

[Amritpal6]

The Quick setting takes -10

The Normal setting takes- 15

The Best takes - 20-30 mins (worth it, most detail.)

[Rayman400]

[duardie2]

[TRENDSA3]

LabelLightScribe

[chirt1]

can you do this forever because my laptop came with LightScribe installed in it?

[aminuk23]

not forever as each laser have a life time so ur has that too and burn after lets say 3000 cd

[chirt1]

wow!! 3000 cd will do it for me, but 1 question do i have to buy the light scribble cd to do it?

[aminuk23]

ye you need the lightscriber which are to be honest with you same price as normall dvds,its only the back of them are differnt which can be laser printed, lighscriber give you pro result but all in black.white so its not colour full, printers are but i think the printer running cost is higher than light scribers as they use ink and stuff, if you want lighscriber professoinal design softwares i sell this kinda softwares so just contact me, good luck

[chirt1]

thx for the tip, you the best "PEACE"

[massergiomusica]
