No prob... Not too many people seem to know. I'll post my findings, if I have any.
docTY~! Any comments on my transfer rate issues with Verbatim discs?
In other drives, as soon as it goes over 8x after the 3.8 Gig mark...the transfer rate drops.
@kivory666 Yea I was definately talking about Quality media and not the HQ brand.
Well for your first question. You are not making a mistake, if DVD-R works best for you then that's the way to go. You'll get the best results...
I wonder what's up with that previous disc in the speed test. Anyone have any idea why it's like this? [img]
As Promised! Here is that second 4x burn on Verbatim MCC 003 media. The 1st graph shows the burn rate and the 2nd is the PIE/PIF scan. The 3rd...
Here are some more tests, this time with 8x Verbatim MCC 003 media. All these burns are done with the BSMB firmware and read in the same drive....

From what it seems, TY discs are pretty much tops. Would buying Sony +R media Made In Japan be the same as genuine TY? Also, I suppose the MIJ...
Are made in Taiwan Verbatims good? What are the ID's of the -R +R MIT Discs?
What would be intresting is if we could apply a CSS like an original DVD-ROM has. If we can decrypt it, surely we can crypt it! Then again, anyone...
Back to the RITEK media. It seems that Maxell these days (which are now made by CMC, previously Ritek) is going down the tubes as far as quality....
I just went to Wal-Mart and picked up 2 50 packs of Sony DVD+R Made in Japan for 24.97. This summer I picked a bunch of the same meda at 19.88...
Here are some PIE/PIF scans of DVD+R DL media Burned on the BENQ 1640. [img] [img]
kivory666, Can you post a PIE/PIF scan of one of your G05s just to compare with mine?
Well, all in all... it doesn't seem that they are bad, it's just that they are not as good as top notch media. If a pressed DVD is worse than TY...
