Post your DISC quality scans here 2

ok so i got the digital copy of thor along with the blu ray version.normal thing now days i guess.
so i put the digital copy in my optaric 7240S? not sure which one it is now..lol
and i put a nice shiney 8x-r TY in the LG WH12LS39 and used clonedvd2 (on the fly burning) and got this lovely burn, scanned with my IHAS324...lol gotta get them all in on the action..

 

Ha ha! TYG02's almost always scan nicely

 

Yea but my luck with them.and a new drive hasn't always been pleasent.lol
think I'm going to go with another BR burner in the next couple weeks when I do my build. That I7 2700K is mentioned for blue ray encoding!!!!! Lol

 

Here's the second burn via the WH12LS39. Better than the last one Although this dye is NON LTH. Verbatim 6X BD-R Hub/printable burned at 4X.

 

Here's one of the more favored medias. Not! LOL!

A Ritek/Ridata 4X BD-R burned at 2X via my older LG WH10LS30. Verified with imgburn(passed). The scan is actually rather agreeable for Ritek. I've seen much worse with these dyes. I'll trust it for now. This will be one of those discs that I check back on every 6 months or so, to see how the data is holding up

 

Here's a 6X LTH Verbatim BD-R. Burned at 4X via WH12LS39. I swear it's learning this media LOL! Or it's simply breaking in nicely. However, I believe I'll be shrinking my backups a bit more. I'm seeing a trend. Around the outer edge, the scan quality begins to degrade. Which makes sense. I believe I'll stick with 20 - 21Gb now. Depending on the circumstances of course. I should scan a TY today

 

Here's my backup of the movie 300. 6X LTH burned at 4X via WH12LS39.

I'd say the video quality looks worse than the scan though. Apparently they added artificial film grain(overdid it by the way) to cover up the CGI, and give it a more natural appeal. It's fairly distracting! I just hope when I project it beyond 100" down the road, it doesn't look too bad.

 

Another excellent Taiyo Yuden 4X LTH BD-R Burned at 2X via WH12LS39.

 

im back...lol miss me? doubt it.. just ordered some verbs from best buy. first ones ive bought in a long time. tired of the cmag junk. but i ordered these. got the MIT verbs the real MIT verbs MCC004 stuff , not sure if i should use them or save them..lol

I rarely Buy DVD-Rs any more. I have very few of those left. Mostly TY T03's, and some TDK Ritek F-16s. I'm generally into playing with BD-R's any more

 

Heck I haven't burned a br disc since you and I talked about them month's ago.

 

Hello Rob!

 

DVD is the past Hello guys! Fact is, I have multiple BR scans I've been meaning to post. Needless to say, LTH discs are something I won't be trusting for a while. Possibly never. I'm concerned about longevity.

 

Hey Ripper how's it going long time no chat.
So I should stay clear of the LTH media when I get the chance to get back into the BR world.lol I got this nice BR burner and only have about 8 burns on it. Lmao

 

I slapped a 3yr warranty on mine One of them anyhow. Seems a lot more solid than the last two I bought. Thankfully!

 

Has been a while. Not bad here thanks, how've you been?

I haven't burned a DVD in a while, think I'm still sad on some YUDEN003s or whatever they are from way back when.

 

Rob,

Hey there. It's good I dropped by, glad to see you again! I'm still here, getting ready to start another build on Sunday. #519, to be exact.

Best Regards,
Russ

 

Miss you?? Nope....

You should have called me back the other day... I think someone could have sent you some discs..

 

I thought this thread was dead. Hello to the ole timers-Ripper especially since he made Addict the day before me. Also good tidings to the rest of you.

I haven't made too many burns lately because the movies have been awful. I haven't bought any lately either. I had too many. Mainly using Taiyos +RTO-2s and 3s. no problems. Still no BR ones. Recently I copied the second disc I ever burned without a hiccup.-a mag at that Greensman. I did think I was in need of help for Cabin in The Woods but managed somehow-still asking myself why after I watched it.

The other big thing in my life is that I have finally retired. All the days are the same now with nothing I have to do anymore. I'm in Heaven. 45 years cutting on teeth. Long time.

 

I obviously posted far too often then eh G!

That sounds good to me, enjoy your retirement. I'm going to have to get a proper job in a few years - ah, the student life!
