Disk Quality Scan Thread

[Chewy]

that looks decent for a well used/abused burner with tyg03, the 2.68 pie average especially

[BR7]

what about TY 03 burn with 1650 ? that would easy say the NEC is old or not

I have seen burn like that with maxell 02, play fine and last atleast a year ( that is how old it got with me) any media MIJ I hardly have problem usually is my faulse

Here is the 1650 scan nightTran.I think Chewy is right the NEC is gone.I will put my 1670 back in and use it for ripping only to save on the work load for 1650

[NightTran]

I would keep it for burning none importance stuff and try some + see it make any diff

[Chewy]

wait a minute, the nec burned a better disk than the benq

just slightly and the jitter had a fluke

[NightTran]

can't be, I still think the Benq is better but Chewy is the best here,

ps the 1650 only been less then 50 burns ( just let you know)

[Chewy]

to compare the 2 scans, keep both open and switch from one to the other, the benq barely edges out the nec with pif's total, a little better with avg, but the nec clobbers the benq with the pie's(almost 3 times better).
again you can't make decisions based on one or 2 burns, unless you have some top of the line blanks that are very consistent.

I would baby the benq 1650 and finish using the nec up.

Just found the first 16X disc in this last batch I bought from supermediastore.

Superman burned with BenQ 1650 at 8X

[Chewy]

verbatim 16x dvd+r burned at 8x
1. nec 3550 1y6 reassembled after cleaning(was ready for the trash)
2. benq 1650

the nec is still burning ok, the benq has only burned 50 disks at most

I just ordered some MCC 004 Verbs I got 50 for $14.As soon as I get them I will post my results I am just not impressed with those TY03's.

Did you use the Qsuite default settings for the verbs.And why don't people use the supported feature for supported discs.If you use the default settings which is Un-Known disc does it still learn it

Needed some Christmas decorations!

I thought I would get started making my Christmas decorations early this year. I am not going to tell you the kicker on these but it is whether they play or not. BTW they all burned & verified.

First up Samsung: LG: PX:

The PX-716A sure likes the Sony/Yudens burning @4X but it sure doesn't like the other crap & it let's you know it.

3 very different results-same disc

Verbatim 8X - Burned at 4X with Nero - Made in Taiwan - Scanned at 1EEC

What is causing the spikes in the scans at 5X but not found in 8X or MaxX?

[soup]

All burned @16X.

Well I tried the CMC MAG M01.The Benq 1650 did not like them at all 3 discs failed at the end.I also tried it on the NEC 3550A it burned it but it wasn't good enough to trust this media.I am going to take them back and get my money back
