CD Burning Speed?

What is the highest speed in your opinion you can get away with burning CDs to play in CDJs?
I burned a few at 54x and they were skipping in cdj-800s. So I reburned @ 24x and some still skip. Strangely though, there's other ones I burned at 24x that play fine. And still others won't read at all.
Could it be a problem with the CDJs, my media, or the burn speed?
I'm using standard Maxell CD-Rs. |

Thats ok, since i have a laptop the max speed is only 24. Depends what the cd is for. If you are burning a cd to keep and to use for as long as you can think of then you can affort to set it to very low.
But if your burning a mix cd for friends use higher speeds. Not that i dont like my friends but they arent worth spending an hour on to burn their cds for them. |

may be something wrong with the software..?
try 16x should work good. |

| Depends on what cdrs you are using also. Some cds may work at high speeds whilst others dont. But nomatter how high quality/compatible the cdr slower speed is better. |

Does anyone actually know why it's better to burn at a slower speed? Are bits of data just going missing or not being burnt properly?
I burn at 48x and have no problems.. ever! If a cd skips i blame the cd player first (if i know it plays on another cd player) Otherwise i blame the disc. I've never blamed the burning speed, so this is interesting.
I might have a go at burning a cd i know my sis is having trouble with playing in her cd player at a slower speed and i'll get back to you lot to let you know if it helps :)

it really depends on the CD drive. CD drives are like cars, some are good for speed, some are good for off road, but all cars can drive on the road. General rule is stay under 40X and below. Most CD writers do so well at 48X. IF you do plan for 48X keep only one track.
God of all writers: Plextor, with lite-on pretty damn good too. Remember that many other brands may use those chipset. |

| skip |
| i burn everything 8x because i'm in no hurry and i like quality. and i don't burn slower than that, because nero won't let me. dunno why though! :o |

hmm..
Well, I burn my CD-Rs at 32x+. If you have a quallity burner, and some quallity CD-Rs it should not make the CD skip. I've never had any problems with my CD-Rs...;) |

exactly. burning speed is irrelevant. yes, higher burning speeds cause more errors, but the burning program picks that up and tells you youve just created a coaster. if you burn a CD at 4x and a CD at 32x, and they both burn successfully, there is no difference between the two.
the quality of the CDR and the CD player is more important. |
