Is that what u were asking me in regards to media code? thx..
Here are some media codes for fuji. Those should be good media though. Might be a problem with usb or firewire. Fujifilm DVD+R 4x (RICOHJPNR01) Fujifilm DVD+R 8x (RICOHJPNR02) Fujifilm DVD+R 8x (YUDEN000T02) Fujifilm DVD+RW 2.4x (RICOHJPNW01) Fujifilm DVD+RW 4x (RICOHJPN W11) Fujifilm DVD-R 1x (RITEKG03....) Fujifilm DVD-R 2x (TAIYOYUDEN..) Fujifilm DVD-R 4x (ProdiscS03) Fujifilm DVD-R 4x (TYG01.......) Fujifilm DVD-R 8x (FUJIFILM03) Fujifilm DVD-R 8x (TYG02
k i know the media code now. it's Prodisc F01.. And i use the fireware so some of the discs r doing ok but some not. I got these at best buy 100pk $40.00 today 2. Man. I should of gone for the vertabim 8x dvd+r 100pk for $42.00 at Sams club. Well, i'm going to see on how many of this batch ends up good out of 100. Thx for your help it's most appreciated on this end. Also, was wondering is it possible to to make my decrypter burning faster then 1.9x b/c it's taking like 30mins to burn a dvd-r? I mean does changing the Pio to Dma work for external firmware burners? I have a Plextor Px-712Uf external burner that is that connects with IEEE 1394. thx.
i know DMA isn't an issue with USB burners, but proper external or firewire drives, not sure. Don't suppose you use Nero ?, as i like delving thru Nero logs to find the causes of stuff like this..
i thought i wasn't seeing things - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/196426 - this rang a bell that's all.
lisa32, My guess is your problem is media related. I have read of some problems with the prodisc F01's. If you decide to pick up some of those verbatums from Sams, make sure it says azo dye on the label to assure you are getting those made by MCC. PIO, DMA settings only apply to IDE interfaced drives and will not apply to external USB or firewire drives. Try some better media and I bet your problems will be solved. Maybe you can take the fuji's back. Mort
