    Playing the disc with label

    I was wondering what you think about using a adhesive label onto a burn DVD. I heard that i can throw it off. Just wondering what you think about it.

    Another issue is that i have noticed that after about 1 hour and 40 minutes the DVD starts to skip. I sometimes take it out for 5-10 minutes and then it works fine for the rest of the film. Is it the label getting to hot?

    If you have any suggestions than please reply. Thanks

    label can warp discs, and a warped disc is more difficult to read.

    moreover labels unbalance discs, and also this render more difficult to read a disc.

    I suggest you to avoid labels. If you want to "label" your discs the best solution are printable discs. You can write on them and also print images (with the proper printer obviously )
