Would somebody with access to the 10.3.6 developer preview please post whether it has built-in suppot for the recent Pioneer DVR108 dual-layer drive.
I have one but don't want to buy Toast 6.0.7 if native support will soon be released.

What 10.3.6 developer preview, exactly?

Anyway, I wouldn't hold out any hopes until at least Tiger.

How else to explain it?? there is a 10.3.6 developer preview floating about. It's no secret. Check AppleInsider where it also happens to mention various changes regarding optical media.

Sorry, I don't read AppleInsider on a regular basis, so I hadn't heard of it. I'd also point out that nobody with legal access to any developer preview release would be allowed to discuss it.

Is the DVR-108 supported only by Toast? SO the OS and iDVD will not recognize it?

I think the OS recognizes it now, but has no support for the dual-layer-y goodness.

You can use Patchburn II which will allow to use the pioneer 108 with all of Apple's iApps. Only Toast 6.07 for the moment recognises the drive natively and will burn dual layer on it. All other apps for the mo will burn single layers.

You can check out more information over here and here

I have the pioneer and using Patchburn, I can use it as normal

Hope that helps

I don't think his question has been answered correctly.

Well, the majority of us don't have access to 10.3.6, so we're offering what information we have. Since no one with access to 10.3.6 has bothered to reply, what do you expect of the rest of us?

No, it doesn't.

I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you

If someone else has a DVR-108 and using Patchburn 3, I am having an issue where burning -RW discs with the the Pioneer DVR-108 works, and it verifies, but when the Apple DVD Player tries to play it after the burn, it complains about an unreadable file. If I open the VIDEO_TS folder from the source, it works fine. The other strange thing, is that it will play in my Sony DVD Player. however if this is a drive problem, I want to return it before the 30 day return expires in a couple weeks. If someone can try burning a -RW and see if you get the same symptoms. that may indicate that its a Patchburn problem of some sort.. Other -R media works fine thanks

Wow, it's like having a discussion with my mom.
