nero issue burning dvds

hey, i been using 16x memorex media for a while burning at 6x.
and now when i put the dvd in my dvd player it gives disc error.
so i burned one a 2x and it played fine. whats up with that
i use nero 6.3

 

i have also used maxell and office depot brand with no problem.
i also use lite on burner 8x

 

if i play the disc back in the computer drive it plays fine,

 

@ 340duster,

Memorex is known here at AD as Memosux, very low quality media and now u know why. i wouldn't be suprised if the ones u burned at 2x will not work done the road either.

Check this out here are scans of the best media and some of the worst
look at the quality score in the lower right of the scan

Best media, which u can get for at about the same price as crap media
Taiyo Yuden(Online)
Verbatims
Sony(MIJ)
maxell(MIJ)
Fuji(MIJ)
MIJ=Made in Japan(important)

 

they have worked well in the past.
i even have some off this same spool that works, up to now!!!

 

i'm not getting any errors after the burn is complete.
they have just stopped playing in my dvd players.
unless i burn at 2x which is way to slow..
but they will play through nero or window media on my computer.

 

You have been advised as to the POOR quality of the discs you are using but it seems you know better.

Have a read of this, if you still dont believe it then you are beyond help

In future put ALL your info in ONE post only, NOT three!!

 

so why does it play back on the computer and not the player.
i understand the media is not the best but has worked fine and now it don't.. why at 2x and not 6x all of the sudden???????
i apoligize about the multiply posts i had jumped in without careful thought!

 

Did u check out the scans in mine and gwendolin's post?
thats all the info u need of why not to buy crap media

DVD players are more picky than DVD burners or Roms when it comes to playback. i hope u realize how low quality media is a crapshoot when it comes to them playing on ur dvd player as u have found out 1st hand. and the longevity of the disk, sure u might not get any errors when burning but in 6 months to a year u will start to see pixaleting, freezeing, skiping and thats even [bold]if[/bold] they play,
but in the end its your money, just giving u advice about crap media is all, take it or leave it.

 

just to let you know i updated the firmware off the lite-on site and now everything is back to normal, plays at 6x or even 8x if i want..

 

If u did check out the scan of the memorex disk in the links and still want to use them GOOD LUCK
