Gm, imgburn says its TY, Nero says its TY. Is there some other, FULL PROOF way to KNOW for a fact that a disc IS what it says it is? Oh... I only ever burn at 8x. I read somewhere that 4X isnt always the best choice. Depending on media and burners 4X could actually be considered stupid in some cases. I used dvd decypter up until a few weeks ago. Then I switched to imgburn. I'm IN LOVE WITH IMGBURN! LOL. No, seriously though, its all I ever use. Please believe me when I say I KNOW, that the burner caused the freak 820 scan that I posted. My media always comes from Supermediastore. Seldom ive used meritlines TYG02's. But TYG02's are THE ONLY discs my burner see's. With the exception of my remaining verbatim's. And of course, the industries TY's.

Never let's us down I say. :)

omega man I'm 99.99% sure you have the real thing and if they're fake you wouldn't have that good of a burn. ;) As it seems you are having drive issues and another thing to do is try another spindle and see what results those discs might give. There have been cases that the TY brand has an issue but NOT very often.

Go here and see how to determine the origin of your discs. ;)

Some other things to consider is a fresh flash of the f/w or even a cross flash but if the drive is going nothing will bring it back. Laser replacement is a possibility. ;)

If the drive has over 1000 burns then a new drive is in order. :) If you would like some help choosing we would be happy to do so but I would consider the Sony/NEC/Optiarc AD-7200A/S or a Pioneer 116/216. Of course the Lite-On iHAS120 is a good un too!!!! :)

All Optiarcs are not created equal...the 72XX series GM recommended are highly sought drives. Any series drives before that can be questionable.

Really weird rip errors too. I didnt know that a dvd-rom/writers could screw up video audio sync till that burner.
