Any feedback on Kyphermedia DVD-r's? Officemax has a great deal on them!

Absolutely terrible for video--less than a 25% success rate on 2 different 10 packs. Avoid them like the plague.

Ya officemax has an instant rebate, it would come out to 20 bucks for a 25 pack...FUC* it now. By the way...COMPusa's brand is JUST AS TERRIBLE!!!! AVOID both kypermedia and compusa brand at all costs!!!!!

Khypermedia is the worst dvd-r's I've ever purchased. So far I've been able to burn to approximately 7 out of about 20, and the were only $1.00 each. They've turned out to be the most expensive dvd-r's I've bought so far. The ones you're lucky enough to burn to are terrible for video, freezes towards the end of the video's I've tried backing up.

I had the same problems with Khybermedia, about 1 in 5 burned ok. The CompuUSA brand was even worse, all coasters. Best buy I found was at Supermedia, Optodisc 1x -RW for a buck a piece. 9 of 10 worked well, the other 1 I just erased then it worked fine so 10/10 good.
Sony DRU-500A.

They have worked great for me with DVD XCopy (versions 1.4.1, 1.5, and 1.5.2) on the Sony DRX-500UL with 1.0g firmware. Haven't had a single bad burn yet.

I have a Panasonic A05 DVD-RW writer. I tried and consistently failed with HyperMedia media using version 1.21 or earlier firmware. When I updated my firmware to 1.30 with the RPC I have not had a bad burn yet!

For what its worth I have used every one of my Hypermedia discs 1x and have had no problems yet. I use DVDDecrypter/DVD2ONE/Copy2DVD for all backups, bought at Office Max when they were on sale
