I am looking for information about following points where I have some little problems:

1°) I noticed that when you copy a DVD using CloneCD there is only a single Profile called DVD and it is impossoble to edit it like yoy do for the CD Profiles

2°) The control of the writing speed
If I set the speed to 1x the software indicates mainly around 2,..X
If I set the speed to max, it goes sometimes up to 7,..X even with a only 4x certified DVD
and often I get some important writing errors (CloneCD 5 does not tell while writing, I noticed that only after while reading the DVD back)

3°) I don't know how to do the bitsetting of a DVD+R SL and DVD+R DL into DVD-ROM.
I get a DVD-ROM booktype on the copy only when I use my NEC 3500 drive with a Mad Dog firmware like the 2.FD, firmware which "auto" bitsets on a premanent basis

4°) I noticed that on my copies originating from pressed DL DVD,
the layer break on the copy is always in the middle of chapter which causes a freeze of 1 second or so during the time the standalone player changes layer (this delay is normal accordong to the DVD-video book)
So on a pressed DVD I think that they manage to always put the layer break between 2 chapters
and that on the copy CloneCD 5 puts the variable quantity of 6 GB or 7 GB in a "symetric" way, putting the layer break in the middlle.
Is this observation about the layer break position on a DVD+R DL copy of a movie right or not ?
