Post your DISC quality scans here 2

NOT to bad cincy!!! You did some trouble shooting on your own?? hehehe. J/K buddy... You and I have come so far in the last year or so it's amazing. Anyway you chose the most simple thing first and went from there. Good for you.....

NOW that the babbling is over... DON'T buy another cable!!!! I know someone that is gonna send you some stuff and will INCLUDE a cable for your needs....

Sorry the mail hasn't delivered a "Father's Day" surprise yet. It will be there soon!!!

....gm

 

NOT from burning CMC MAG stuff. I use it for tests a lot.. DON'T want to FRY me good stock testing. btw did you see the speed I was burning at?? On the MCC 03RG20 too!!! 20X is FLYING!!!

AND NO... I don't normally burn at that speed!!! TESTING some different drives and f/w along with some "quality" media.... hehehe.

8X and 12X seem to produce some very good results.

...gm

 

nice DL there loco

got one i just burnt at 20x(18 actually)

wow look at all the pretty colors
looks nasty huh. check out the scans

DVDINFO
NERO

as you noticed all the colors in the top scan. i had my antivirus running when i was doing this and didnt know it until it was done burning...

 

ok boys. putting this bad boy to the test. burning 3 different movies at once. i chose the scream triolgy.

scream with clonedvd2 on the SHW-160P6S
scream 2 with imageburn on the LH-18A1P
scream 3 with nero on the LH-20A1S

all 3 were scan'd with the drive it was burnt on.

just because you can doesnt me you do...lmao
yea i was online looking at newegg while burning also..lol

 

kickass man i will be there also soon!!

 

.IBG's???

 

oh yea with dvdinfo. the graph with imagburn was ugly.up and down all over the place....i might play with it again this weekend and illkeep that info.... i might even do a .iso with nero and create a disc and keep that also...

 

Did some reading and then had to do some playing.....

This is ugly, but boy, was it fun!

I attempted to burn an 8x MBI (MID RicohJpn D01) @ 16x with ImgBurn.

Here is a screen capture of ImgBurn mid-burn showing a 15.1x burn speed. The highest I saw was 15.3x.

Here is the finalizing screen of ImgBurn showing an elapsed time of 10:34. The burn process was done around 8:20. Finalizing took about 2 minutes.

Here is the CD/DVD Speed scan of a MBI 8x DL burned @ 16x with ImgBurn. It's double-ugly and I limited the max's to show more detail of the smaller peaks. It was interesting that when I started DiscSpeed there was no mark for the layer break.

The disc is actually playing right now, but not without issues. Waiting to see what happens when it hits the layer break! :O

 

looks like the 3 at once i tried hobbit..lol

here is one of the indy jones disc i used dvd-rebuilder on burnt with the LH-20A1S @ 8x


here is the log from dvdrebuilder also

7.43gb in 45 mins very nice.

 

hummm wonder what my times are going to be with my new Q9450 CPU

 

The disc actually played fine, nary a hop, skip or freeze during the movie. I'll have to check and see where the layer break landed.

The issues the disc did have was that it wouldn't play in my toshiba hd at all, but it would play in my pioneer player. I could not get to any menus either, the movie would just start and at the end it would just stop.

 

@LOCO,

Not really. Other than the above disc, the tosh has refused to play 1 other backup. I have a Sharp Blu-Ray also and the Sharp is much more picky. It has refused so many that I don't even try it with backups anymore. The tosh also has a better decoder chip in it than the sharp too so it has better color, depth, and black levels too.

 

I have the A30, it is/was the cheapest one with 1080p. I'd love to get a XA2 but they are still pricy.

The hd dvd movies are also cheaper than blu-ray.

Funny thing, the 1 backup disc that the tosh wouldn't play the sharp did.

 

Got some scans. Been doing some testing and give-aways are in order. lol.
