It's definitely powerdvd, everyone has the same issue. I tried it with the arcsoft digital theatre program and it was barely noticeable/smooth.

Thanks for the reply. I suspected the PowerDVD as the primary culprit. I guess I will just have to hope for a future fix or switch players.

It could read ahead far enough to have a buffer that would last through the layer transition, if they wanted to program it that way. Let's do some math. Even if it is close to a peak of 35Mbps, to have a 10 second buffer, 35 * 10 / 8 bits per byte, that is less than 44MB of RAM. With most modern computers having 1GB+ of RAM, 44MB is entirely possible.

Hi,


Is the LG GGW-H20L the drive HP ships under their "Blu-ray writer / HD DVD player & Lightscribe SuperMulti DVD burner" option?


I am considering buying the m9000t...


Thanks!
