    I bought 100 blank dvd media off of ebay (ok, #1 mistake there already) but after recieving them, there is no printing on them and I cant seem to write to them

    How can I tell what speed they are, maybe they are 1X and my writer wont work but is there a way to tell what these things are?

    Question

    Will this program also work on BLANK media, which is what I have?

    from the description it sounds like it will tell you what is your full media


    it says " retrieves and interprets the pre-recorded information that is present"

    that doesnt sound like blank media

    It'll read the manufacturer code off your blank media just fine :)

    if you have dvd decrypter installed, when you insert a blank DVD, it will tell you the brand, and the available writing speeds.
