Post your DISC quality scans here 2

GM,
I wouldn't dream of flashing any drive model I never flashed before without consulting you first! I am getting better at it though, as I was able to recover that drive I bricked!

New MB is installed and up and running. So far, so good! I'm going to install all the software before I even mess with overclocking. Runs very well for a stock 2.7GHz machine!

Best Regards,
Russ

 

Never needed to crossflash. I flash every once in a while. Never had a problem with it Thanks for the offer though GM

 

Glad to hear that you saved an ODD> Great that your machine is running like you want it. GOod luck on the OC.

 

not that im worried about the crossflash ive done a few. no where near the amount you have..lol but i am totally happy with the AD7220S the way it is. heck if i could get some more of the same batch of those verbs i recently got i would never need a crossflash or FW update..lol

@Garmoon.
post your results and lets see what it does. both of my 7200A/S will let me choose 8ecc & 1ecc but hte AD7220S wont nore will my true liteon 20A4P. i just got Obsessed lastnight gonna do the backup of it shortly. ill do it on a couple drives and and use each setting and see what i get.
first i gotta open the tower up and get some canned air going in there.been a week or so since i last cleaned it out.

 

@cincy

I scanned it yesterday and it was also a butt ugly scan on a Ritek F16 burned at 8X as a second copy from Recode. The score was a 93. PIF were around 730 with only one PIF @3 which brought down the score to 93 from 95. There were 7 PIF spikes of 2 and rest were 1s. The blue errors were many - over 100,000. There was no jitter scan with the drive. When i hit the start scan button the jitter greyed out immediately. I ran thru the disc and all chapters opened and play began. I'm confident it will play flawlessly-I'll have to wait for my daughter to tell me. The movie was I Love you, Man and I'll watch it tonight. It was the first back up created with Recode before swapping to Ritek F16. My copy was done with a Verb 004. Maybe I'll scan that one now.

 

Okay here is the same disc, a backup with NeroRecode, on a Verb MCC-004 +R disc-booktyped. Burned with an Optiarc AD 7240S. Scanned first with the Optiarc AD7240S (set the way the Litey is set in advanced settings at 1) and then my litey LH 20A1S. Both about the same.

I get 95 all the time-never better and ususally never worse on good media. I might add that when the Litey started its scan it immedially dropped the score to 40 with a huge red PIF. I stopped the scan and checked the disc and wiped it for safe measure on my shirt and it started as you can see above. I did NOT see anything on the disc!! Can some one address that, greeny??

If anything the Opti 7240S is more critical in its PIEs and PIFs>

And yes greeny I know the jitter is horrible. If I only had the energy to find out why that was bad cause I have no idea how to correct that or realy what it measures-LOL?????

 

I wouldn't say the jitter is horrible. It is inconsistent though
As for the red spike, I get them occasionally on my LH-20A1H. If I slow the scan to 2X then its gone. Can't explain it. I suppose my drive is aging though. Its seen a great deal of discs!

 

OK here's one of the first DVDs I backed up. Over 5.5 years ago. Movie Underworld. On of all media a Memorex which in reality was a ricohjpn 01 @ X4. This bodes well for our collections, at least mine so far. I'll take this burn today; done with good ole DVD X Copy in Xpress copy mode on my first dvd burner.

Well...that certainly puts my mind at ease there garmoon thanks for the tidbit.

Here's a little checkup on my secondary sammy. Its first week caused me to raise my brow, if you get me LOL! Its always been a little slower at rips, and lesser quality scans. But this is looking pretty friggin good for a TYG03 watershield.

 

GARmoonY try using the same version of Nero CD/DVD Speed (4.7.7.16) and see what you get. NOT saying that could make a difference but that would at least be comparing apples and apples when it comes to scanning progies.

I've had the SPIKE many times and restarting sometimes gets "RID" of it but NOT always. Some sort of anomaly I guess.

Nice scan on the RICOH JPN 01...

 

@ O7

That's a fine scan.

@greeny

All the scans have been done with the same version-Disc speed 4.11.1.0, if you mean the same one you're using 4.7.7.16, that's not going to happen. I got a stable nero 8 version going from first installation and it will not be upgraded ever. I has never failed or acted up. If it's not broke don't fix it! JM2C.

Now got to go pack for a overnighter in Biloxi at the casino with my free room and let the wifey gamble a little. She earns perks (read:Is the decider) for having to put up with me.LOL

 

You don't have to upgrade Nero to get the newest and bestest from CD/DVD Speed. I think that I posted a link to it in an earlier post. It's a stand alone progie you run from the .exe file you d/l. Up to you but it WON'T destabilize ye Nero installation now.

 

ok guys did me a nero multi burn 4 disc at the same time
only have scanned 1 so far here is the first it was on the 20A4P litey..dont know what im gonna do keep getting sub50 total pifs..lol



here is one i did before hand

 

4 burns at one time? What models were running, and how long did it take? 4X 8X?

 

He photoshopped the results for PIFs. LOAO J/K nice one Rob.

I have downloaded the 4.7.7.? app but have not had time to use it, just got back from losing $70 in Biloxi with the wife. A win and free room for a good one night gettaaway. Ate at one of the Diners,Dives and Drive-Ins. Ate at the Shed BBQ. Could not recommend it to anyone. The BBQ brisket sammy, sucked. I guess Guy F has never said anything bad about any of the food on his shows but he really needs to be honest. if the food sucks so be it. The ambience-decor in the place was terrific tho. Give 'em a big thumbs up for that.

 

yup 4 burns at once.heres the model drive from top to bottom in my tower.
AD7200A
AD7200S
AD7220S
DH20A4P
burnt @8x and right under 11 mins.to complete. the burns were done in about 8mins took the rest of the time to finalize the disc.

@Garmoon
heck i wish i new what to do in photoshop...my brain isnt geared towards that program..lol

 

Thanks rob. Gives me something to shoot for

Thats too bad about your not being geared toward photoshop. I don't think there's much that it can't do. Given some skill and the right version. I started small with the program. Just using the patch tool for instance. Then I started realizing other possibilities, playing with other tools and filters. I think within the next year, I could be a photoshop master. No joke. I spend a great deal of time with it.

 

@Rob

I actually use Paint Shop Pro 7 an older version. I can do a few basics, but I feel just like you. The actual manual(paper) that came with the box is an inch thick(all English). LOL

 

i just recently came into some Yuden T02's got a scan here. one scanned on the 7220s which it was burnt on then scanned with the 20A4P not bad at all. first of these disc i have had in a long time.

 

Robert that one dang spike!!! Where'd you get some T02's?? Some very nice man must have sent them to ya.

I wanna see one burned on the 7200 if you have one left. Just for comparison.

Hope all is well and btw that last scan/burn is a HOF scan!!! Yippppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

add: Actually it may not be since it isn't 4400MB. But it's great to me!
