    What kind of media are you using?
    Also just because it is 8x doesn't mean you need to burn at 8x.
    Everybody else on this forum recommends burning at 4x.
    Also ALWAYS use brand Name Media.

    It looks like your specs are just fime for your +R 8X media. You only listed for "rw" but if I'm not mistaken it says:

    +rw....

    12x record
    4x rewrite
    12x read

    im using dvd shrink which works fine with the +r x4 media, but when play back dvd on comp with the +r x8 its sounds distorted, and when i go to put it into dvd player it comes up no disc.
    but i know recorderable dvd player are ok with the media as when put in blank one to record on its fine
    when burning with the dvd shrink it burns at x1.
