With on the fly burning you cant burn faster then the speed at which your source drive can read the disc.
Very bad idea to rip and burn a DVD movie "on the fly" (DVD original directly burned to DVD blank media, bypassing the HDD). It's iffy even if the original is in pristine condition ... Even if you had a 10Mb buffer on your burner. You will get errors and make coasters much of the time. You are making backups with software that is designed to make backups. You are not duplicating disks. There is a timing factor to be considered here. Rip to your HDD first ... then burn. Using the term "decrypting on the fly" (as AnyDVD does) is using the expression "on the fly" for a different reason in a different context. Whisperer
I think here is my Drives is this right and are they any good? My Drives Drive D: SONY DVD-ROM DDU1615 FDS1 NOV28 ,2004 Drive E: PHILIPS DVD+-RW DVD8631 CD21 MY0X90197015952504OR Thanks Fivestones
We almost have identical drives. The Sony one is exactly the same, and the Philips one is the same except for the last four numbers, wow. There is a firmware upgrade available for the Sony drive.

Its always safer to copy to your hard drive first then burn but I have done many on the fly copys and never had a playback problem or error using CloneCd however if the disc has some scratches I wont do an on the fly copy, but I also always burn to a Verbatim +RW disc first and play it back to make sure that it plays fine and everything in the menu works fine.
