easter or memorial day. thats if you can wait that long. usually when i see a sale, i would stock up on them.

I just got a 100 pk of 16x verbatim DVD+R for $35.99 from buy.com. There is a $13.00 mail in rebate and the shipping was FREE. Free shipping said 7-10 days but I got them in 5 days. Fedex to boot. 23 cents a disc after mir, not too shabby. The deal is good untill march 1st I think.

Just to be on the safe side, I still burn my DL media at 2.4x. 4x would probably be fine but DL media is still too expensive to chance it for me. I create an iso file and burn with imgburn. Perfect playback. Good choice on the brand of DL media you're using. Stay with verbatim DL media for best results.

To backup Mort, I use ImgBurn and burn at 2.4x on verbatim DLs. Great combo.

I swear it's this forum that is keeping the price of Verbatim DLs artificially high and as a result the others too. We praise Verb DLs too much.

Yeah I think you're right Garmoon - maybe we should just be silent about them and see what happens :)
I only use the printable one's and they haven't been on sale for awhile.
$2.70 a piece.
If locoeng didn't send me some I'd be completely out.

I'm not badmouthing you but I fail to see what the benefits of TY making DL media would be. Verbatim DL dvd+r's play back flawlessly now when burned correctly. Don't know how TY could beat that.
BTW, thanks Yujenh. I'll look into those.

Hello there,
I have one quick question. Concerning "true" Taiyo Yuden's, is the GGxxx code supposed to on the actual inner plastic ring, or on the writable side of the disc itself, between the dark ring and the start of the see-through plastic ring?
The reason I ask this is because I ran across an 8x 100 pack bundle (hub printable), and they cause my games to stutter. The GGxxx code resides on the writable side of them.
I also ran into another bundle that has the term "P&O Reflections" on the disc, and the GGxxx code resides on the inner ring (see-thru portion). Playback is flawless.
Just wanting to clear some fog,

well for the main reason we only have 1 source of a good DL disc. i allways thought more is better.
also if there was more than 1 quality DL disc to choose from the price might come down also. verbatim knows they are the only real quality DL disc maker out there

Pretty good argument I think cincyrob. I never thought of the old supply and demand thing. I don't buy DL media just for the reason of $$$. If I can't squeeze it down to a DVD-5 with decent quality then I just watch the original. LOL.
Plus you gotta emphasize the quality issue as well. TY makes very good media and if they chose to enter the DL market I would expect the same.
Not that I count but I added another couple of cents into the mix.
@Mort81,
How's it going? Haven't chatted in a while. Sent you a PM, did you get it? btw I've burned a couple (30-40) 16X Verbs lately and I'm not getting quite the "quality" burn I would like to see. I've tried all speeds and 8X and 12X seem to give the best result with 12X edging out most of the time. Of course I've been scanning, which doesn't mean a lot I know, with Nero and they don't seem to be as good of a scan as the YUDEN T02. 2 different Litey's so I expect good results.
Now to the point, sorry. What are the settings that give you the best burn as far as play and scan score? The reason I ask you is because I know that you use Verbs and have at least one Litey. TIA.

greensman,
I very seldom scan my burned media. All I know is they play back flawlessly. Never a skip, pause, or any pixelation. I almost always use my litey to burn. No special settings. I usually burn iso's using imgburn that was made with rb/cce. My benq is a faster ripper so I use it to rip and besides since 1650's aren't being made anymore I don't want to wear out it's laser burning. Last pm I got from you was on the 17th.
cincyrob,
Good point.

you beat me mort81. i had the same burner and same disc mcc004 but never got to 98 man. the closest i got on litey was 95 and i am already impressed with that. You are killing me with 98 mort81.
Good thing is I am not as concern as those scores as I used to be.

1. I had the Lite-on LH-18A1P and could not get it to work to save my life. finally sent it back to PCI Micro and that's the last I have seen of it and my money.
2. I use mainly a Litey SHW-160P6S and ever since I updated Nero7 I cannot use Nero Recode. Get error 1066, 1135 and thus I am back to using DVDFAB to decrypt and then Shrink to compress and burn with Nero. this works even if recode won't. In any event, ever since I have been doing this, I have gotten some fantastic results quality-wise using TY02----8X premium line, DVD-R, burning at 4x. Consistent 98% with hardly any PI failures and minimal PI errors. Much better results than recode ever was. Shrink seems to do a heck of a job not only shrinking but utilising Nero to burn. I highly recommend Taiyo Yudens, especially the premium 8x!
