High PI errors. I use Nero to compose the image to harddrive and then burn to DVD at x8. Media is DVD-R x8 - CityDisc - recognized as TYG02? I get pretty consistantly the following picture: Any advice other than just to try another media?
Likely fakes as well. Look at the bottom of those supposedly ty-g02s.On the inner hub-where the dye begins: You'll see a couple of codes there. There's a certain one to look for and looks like: GG000123 or very similar. Those Ty-G02 MID codes can be easility faked,but not the GG000123. The last 3 digits is the batch number. I've seen some fake ty scans and that scan of yours isn't too bad. You're scanning at max. Try 4x on that same backup.
Tried burning at x4 speed - a little better, but not much. By the way - is it a problem to burn at a slower speed?
My Yuden000-T02 scan way better at 8x burns all 4 of my benqs. Same with verbatim +16x MCC-004.Those yudens seems to be best in my Benq 1650 at 8x,while everything else gives me a huge spike at the 2 gb sector at other speeds and the dash format. Now the Ty-G02 scan better at 4x than at 8x on my drives. Burnspeed varies between drives. All drives are different. Lots of variations between all the lasers doing the reading and writing. You'll have to find the quality media/test out different burn speeds/and scan them to see which speed gives you less errors. Burner quality is also another factor. That's why I have 4 benqs burning/ 2 other dvd-rw drives reading-lightscribing/and 1 burner sitting in a box.There are some crappy drives out there. Quality burner+ Quality Media = Faster burn speeds.
Alright, I’m getting high PI errors as well but my quality score has never been below 95, with most right around the 97-98 mark. I’m using either DVD Decrypter (Main Movie + IFOs only) or DVDFab Decrypter to rip the .iso file to my hard drive. I then process the .iso file with VobBlanker. I’m not sure if it is necessary or not, but I have found a quality score increases from 95 to 97-98 when I use the extra VobBlanker step. I then use DVDShrink 3.2 to re-author and burn a DVD (main movie only) with DVD Decrypter. When I rip the original DVD to my hard drive, I am using the Memorex DVD16+/-DL4RWID2 (firmware updated to JWS6). When I burn onto a DVD-R, I use an NEC 3550 (firmware updated with Liggy and Dee’s 1.Y6). I’m using 8x TY’s from supermediastore.com and burning at 4x. I’ve been thinking about updated my NEC with original firmware since these drives are not supposed to have riplock anyway and I’m not using DVD+Rs, so I don’t need the modified firmware for the bitsetting. I just don’t know. Any thoughts? Or am I just getting way in to this?
WOW! What a coincidence...that is the same thing scribed on the Fake TY's I got from Silver-Tek yesterday! Definately FAKES. Where did you order these from?
@corebus the MIJ Sony 16x dvd-r with the TYG03 MID coding ARE genuine TYs~ you just got a confirmation from me~ the inner hub reading should go something like this: GH00xxxx (where xxxx) is the batch number, ie: GH001234 or GH000123 docTY~
yup yup its seems that alot of fake stuff is going around now a days not just jeans it seems that other companies want to get famous or something and they just put other well known brand names on anything just to make them a buck i alaways spend more them 15 seconds when i pay for CD/DVDR media cuzz i have bin threw alot of poopy media and i shoudl know cuzz i have one of those DVD players that will not play any dvd-R/+R unless its the top of the line i guess that is a plus if you wanna think of it that way
