Burner is Sony DRU840 f/w SS01. This burner is the only one that yields the flaw. The flaw is not on the discs until this burner does its handy work, lol. I would bet that a firmware could fix it. But it MAY have to deal with a flaw that this paticular burner has. So unless the other 840's have the same problem, wish in one hand... Its a shame I cant design my own firmware. Because I can think of a few reasons why it would yield this result logically.
Sonys site has no new releases. I guess I could try a SS25 firm/w from my DRU830 on it. Strange how the f/w number went WAY down for the 840 huh? well... I gotta go to walmart and get some stuff. Hancock is on my to do list. :D <------ VERY BIG SMILE
THANKS GM

LOL. The date holds certain significance, plus I was playing around. I love playing around with the art programs. Know that I will NEVER falsify a quality scan without saying so though. What would be the point? Bragging? Wouldnt really be any pride there. Here is yet another AWESOME premium TY. "Now thats what im talkin about" Pretty odd looking jitter, but VERY satisfied!

Good point garmoon.. I've only had a couple of discs that were choppy or wouldn't play. I inspected them physically and then scanned them with some sort of Nero application and it showed much WORSE than that scan of RedRob's. ;)
On inspection one of the discs had "Saturn rings" and therefore went strait to the bin!!! It was drive related. I just haven't replaced it yet. lol. Some POS at work. :P

Well, I pushed the 'BUY' button. It's replacing my Lite-On LH-20A1H in an external enclosure as the f/w on the liteon isn't being updated. The LH-20A1H is replacing my Benq DW1655 as a scanner in a desktop as I think the Benq is starting to lose it's marbles as a scanner.
I also picked up an external 1T usb/eSATA Fantom drive for $119 with a $20 MIR. Will come in handy with the WD TV I picked up a couple of weeks ago.
@ O-man,
Only 3 burners? You need to hang around Greensman more, your count will go up. :P
This will make 11 for me. :D

let me rephrase. I have 3 optical drives that im willing to use AS burners. I have 6 opti's total. :D Though only 4 fit in this case. I suppose thats plenty. I also suppose if I ever need more, I could go with an external enclosure. I REALLY gotta concentrate on a new PSU! Sorry OT.

Im by no means a genius when it comes to building computers. I have tackled and seen my share of problems though. And most components for me are like 1+1. My next PSU im basically gonna aim at future proof. Atleast 4 12v rails, Because I LOVE running multi drives. And a powerful GPU will be appealing before too long. But... back to topic huh.
This is a Verbatim dvd+r (Taiwan). If you have an officemax near you... GET THERE. They have a few deals on media going on through saturday. Tdk 100pk cds 9.99, tdk 100pk dvdr 17.99, verbatim dvdr 22.99 Well now... this is a VERY agreeable scan. Other than the high pi e spike at the start, AWESOME. Expecially the average PI E.
They're not my TY premiums but they're highly respectable. OK... now im seeing the PIF spike, errgh! Wonder if I shoulda got the tdks now. Ehhh... long as its playable right? mmm didnt realize I was scanning at 8x. Just installed this version of nero. I guess 8x is default.
Lol. I discovered a bit/flake of something on the shield. I really gotta clean this room, :( I blow my discs off all the time. I guess it picked it up on route, A whole arms length away. The flake was in the exact area of the mentioned PIF spike.

Ahh thats better. Same kinda disc. Completely blown off disc. However rather than have the opti burn this I had the litey burn it. Strange that this new version of nero doesnt show which burner burns a disc. Though that info has always been buggy for me.

Good to know that the "flake" caused the spike. ;)
Use some DVD-R discs and you'll get that "heading" back. ;)
You could also use Nero discspeed and the create disc (burn image) to create your disc.... it'll give you that info on the DVD+R discs too!! :)

Because I'm tired and lazy atm. :P Go to this post and look at Rob's scan, notice he's using MCC 004 media (DVD+R btw) and NO indication of burner on the area above the scan. NOW scroll down to your post (next post) and it shows a TYG02 (DVD-R btw) and the "burning" drive and info is there in the area above the scan. That's what I mean. I'm betting that both were burned with IMGBURN... which means nothing really except for "same" progie. AND if not still means nothing because DVD-R discs allow that feature 100% of the time afaik. ;)
Sorry it's late and the GM is a tired little man. Up at 4:20am this morning for Black Friday. ROFL. :P

mmm speaking of -/+r, I did notice that imgburn acted different with the inlead of the disc. I'll watch it closer next time. I definetely like the opti over my litey now. it saves me a little more time. Its lead in is much quicker than the litey. Probably a firmware thing. What I do know is that the opti takes 20sec less time than the litey for a FULL disc. VERY NICE. Call me crazy but I think thats rather substantial. Ive known about +rw's for a while now. In that they dont require leadin or leadout. Rather interesting.

Hah hah. Thats the burner that burned this disc. For the life of me I could not remember the model name. Well I guess that proves your theory GM. -r's retain that info. VERY invaluable info. This disc is looking a little on the rough side. Probably explains the pif's i'm/we're seeing. A buffing of the disc will tell me. Ive been looking at this buffer on ebay. Now may be the time to give it a shot. This is the drive ive mentioned that I believe I gave cancer 0.o

Glad that I could actually help someone. :P
I don't know how you could have given a drive cancer but hey you might look at this page and see if you can flash some L&D goodness onto it if you still have it.:) By all means CHOOSE the correct f/w if you want to try it. :)

This is a Verbatim +R booktyped to DVD-ROM. Im running an experiment on a buddies PICKY dvd player. It is my hopes that it will read a +R booktyped to DVD-ROM. Now there's a healthy verbie. :D Oddly, the info in the window doesnt show it as dvd-rom. Lol, I guess you cant fool a burner/computer. It is however a confirmed DVD-ROM booktype.
