    Hi guys,

    I am just wondering what is the best media for burning back-up Xbox game, I got Philips dvd drive and i use Princo dvd-r (4X) to back up the game but got problem with the graphic and sound even when i burn it at the lowest speed. Can someone tell me what brand of dvd-r is best for my Xbox Philips Dvd Drive???

    Thanks :)

    You might to check and make sure you're using the right type of media because I think Philips only supports the +R/RW DVD format. Not 100% sure though. I use the Philips DVDRW228 drive and it only supports DVD+R/RW. Also check their website for the last firmware update.

    I have a Phillips drive and I use Memorox DVD-R media. Works fine for me. You might want to check it out..I burn at 4x too

    I agree with iggi, riteks are the best for all types of burning, you can get a 50 pack of the Ritek G04 4x for $46 at meritline.com, its a good site, and when I bought some about 3 weeks ago they were offering free shipping

    i have a thompson and a samsung, memorex and some cheap ass unknown brand work on both. So i guess i will keep buying the cheap ass ones since it seems to work in all my dvd, xbox and ps2 systems.
