@Yujenh: Hey, don't feel bad about disagreeing, because as long as it's respectful disagreement, nobody here is going to mind much (this is a VERY polite bunch of forum users, probably the best I've seen so far). In fact, when a person can cite good experiences with a specific piece of hardware or media, that is quite helpful, because it helps others know what to expect from a new purchase. I, for instance, would have had a hard time narrowing down which drive to get as a backup, myself, if it wasn't for this forum and the experiences of other members. I must admit that I'm a bit worried about the 1655, just because of some of the Newegg.com customer reviews, but I have to believe that Benq, who have produced some amazing drives, beginning with what looks like the 1620s, will have made an effort to iron out any problems with the drives based on the returns they are getting.

Hello Guys,
I just got the 200 8x DVD-R from the supermedia. The plastic outer box of the media have been damage. However they have agree to accept the return but i will have to pay for the return shipping. My question is this: does the damage on the plastic box is going to effect the performance of the disc?? should i just get a return anyway. Also does this happned to anybody before?? Or am I just happended to be not lucky these cople days.
thanks

USUALLY a damaged cakebox doesn't harm the actual discs in any way, however, most people EXPECT to receive what they pay for in pristine condition...how were your 200 discs shipped? meaning, did they just throw 4 50-pack spindles inside a box and put those air cushions around them for "minimal" protection during transit?
usually, most orders from supermediastore come to your door with no damage, i've been pretty lucky with them in the past, having no broken spindles or whatnot...but, it's been awhile since i've ordered from them, so i don't know how good the shipping dept. is these days...
guess u've been unlucky? anyways, don't worry about disagreeing w/ the others here, we ALL have our own opinions about components and stuff, i personally LOVE my Pioneer dvr-109, it's an older model, but by FAR my fastest burner...i've had it since it was released and it's still kickin' :)
i've read a lotta good things about the 110d too, the only prob. with pioneers is the lack of booktyping features unless you use hacked firmware (which i do btw), other than that, they are excellent drives and built very well, my 109 is proof of that~
Liteons burn well to both DVD-R and DVD+R formats, i just PREFER to use my Benq for the dvd+r/dvd+r DLs...just a personal choice, as i mentioned earlier, i'm not saying either the Liteon or Benq can't burn very well to either formats, it's just i prefer to use one or the other for my specific purposes :)
since the cakebox was damaged during transit, i would totally complain to supermediastore and politely DEMAND they pay for shipping back to them...that's just what i would do if i were in ur shoes~

hello doc
its just exactly as you describe it man. they did not put in enough cusion to support the media. they put 4 box of 50 in each corner and then put the thing in the middle and then cover on the top. So the damage really came from the corner. One of the box is almost shatter everywhere and the other box have damage on top of the plasstc box. i would expected the big company like supermedia to do much better with shipping stuff. thats why i have ask to see if the guys in here have similar problem with supermedia. Its kinda sucks that they acutally charge 15% restocking fee and i have to paid for return shipping and its not even my fault that the disc come in damage.

that's why you raise hell with them on the phone, but in a stern and polite manner...hehe, if supermediastore sent ME damaged media due to poor packing, believe you me a 15% re-stocking fee is totally unacceptable and i would demand they make things right...
in ur case, IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT...deal with them aggressively, don't let them push you around...be calm about it, but voice your displeasure about your order...if you speak to them in a civil matter, they will give in...as with most businesses, "the customer is always right" :) they will come to a compromise if handled correctly~ :) good luck buddy...

It's not your fault they didn't package them good enough. Do as docTY suggested and complain to supermedia store. I personally have never had a problem with them. Later.

Well, not such luck guys.
I have been really nice and kind. I told them I only want to have the damage ones being return for exchange and they will not be responsible for return shipping whatsoever. So I guess I am running out of the luck. I am kinda thinking i might be keeping the disk since it probably will cost at least 10 or 15 to ship the thing. It weights 9lbs. I will just have to get rid of the damage box and use my own box instead.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

@ kivory666 & aabbccdd
Hello, I'm the guy with the one in a million problem that you guys helped me with a few weeks ago starting on page 6 of this thread in which my stand alone players wouldn't play TY-R media but would play every other media and brand I've ever thorwn at it in both formats, including Sonys+R 8x mij which is TY in the + format and I don't Book Type, yeah confusing huh? haha. I wound up returning them. Then last weekend I ordered a 100pk of Verbatims+R 8x on sale. I thought they would code as MCC which I've used before and worked great. However, when I received them and checked with DVD Identifier to my suprise they coded as....
Unique Disc Identifier: [DVD+R:YUDEN000-T02-000]
Disc & Book Type: [DVD+R]-[DVD+R]
Manufacturer Name: [Taiyo Yuden Co. Ltd.]
Manufacturer ID: [Yuden000]
Media Type ID: [T02]
which is the same as the overpriced Sony+R's I've been using. So here's my question. If I order actual TY+R at 8x on my next purchase can I expect to get the same ID? I've used a few spools of these now and feel comfortable that they work best for me. Now I'm just trying to get the best price possible in doing so and TY seems to usually have a better price than the others with this media code.
PS. I'm still VERRRRRRRY curious why my stand alones would not play TY-r's and has played -r's from Imitation, TDK, Virbatim, Sony, and many more etc etc etc. That just doesn't mesh, haha, but I don't want to invest in another 100pk of TY-r's just to experiment some more and have to go through the hassles of a return again.
UPDATE, cancel everything I just said above about the Verbs being TY code, lol I thought that was a mistake and should have double checked before I wrote this, I put the wrong disc in the drive and checked it-kicking self. They are MCC003 which is what I expected. I still would like to know about the TY+r 8x question above. Thanks and I'm going to go eat crow now, lol.

I only had 1 problem with supermediastore and receiving damaged goods but it was jewel cases & only a few were cracked - the media has always been fine and packed pretty well. I've been using them for almost 2 years and have placed quite a few orders though probably not nearly as many as doc. As doc said the discs should be fine but if not I would call them back again and this time speak with a manager/supervisor. I checked their website and couldn't find anything about a 15% restocking fee - unless I'm missing something or this is new.
Funny they also told me +r is more cause it's a better format yet on their website is has that it's hard to say which is a better format. hmmm I'll still order from them though probably place another order within the next week.

I just burned my first double layer disc on a Sony DRX-810UL. It is a backup of a movie on a Verb DVD+R 8x DL and the Nero scan went to zero. Playing it back I have yet to see a single problem. Maybe it is something with DL scans.
Update to what I posted in the quote -
I flashed the Sony with the BenQ164B (which it really is) BEGB firmware, rescanned with Nero CD-DVD Speed and got 82%. I played it in a 6 year old player that does not do DVD+R but it played anyway to about half way through where it choked on what I assume was the layer break. On a DVD+R player it sailed right through that point.
I am not sure what the lesson is here but it may be to flash your burner to what make it really is. Seems to make the scans more accurate anyway.

Hi everybody!
I have been following this thread, just lurking around! I have a Nec 3550A with 1.Y5 Liggy firmware. I never got good scan scores,I figured my drive must not be such a good scanner. So I just gave up on doing that, as the movies play flawlessly. I only used Nero to do the scans. I would post in a different thread, don't wanna abuse doc's thread, but the media/scan experts are here:~)!
Well, then I read a few posts behind as how burning at more than just X4 you might get better results. I tried that, and I discovered that also the scanning speed has a lot to do with the Q scores. I really don'r know the right way to do it( scan at the same speed like you burn, or faster, or slower?), so I am asking for input.
I used Maxell MIT(RITEK R03), Maxell MIJ(Maxell 002), Verbatim(MCC 003), and Sony MIJ(YUDEN000 T02). So, all DVD+R X8 rated media. The two Maxells I burned at X8 and the Verbatim I burned @X8(I could've gone all the way to X12, although is rated X8). The Sony(TY) I burned it @12(although I could've gone all the way to X16). Then I scanned them at the same speed that they were burned at. The quality scores look decent I guess?
Maxell DVD+R burned @X8
Maxell MIT burned @X8
Verbatim DVD+R X8 burned @X8
And Sony MIJ(TY) DVD+R X8 burned @X12
I tried to scan the same discs at different speeds than the ones they were burned at, and they failed miserably from the start, down to 60-80. So that's how it is, you have to scan using the same speed, or depends on the scanner? I also scanned some of the discs that I have previously burned at x4 or x6, like I was first tought, they all failed with scores in the 60's, 70's, no matter what speed I would use for scanning. I don't have any playback problems with absolutely none of them.
I just don't really know what to conclude: burn faster than just X4 or X6, if your burner/firmware/media allow it; how reliable is a scan afterall, if I can get difference of 20-30 points using the same media and scanner, just different scanning speed? And if it is really a reliable tool regarding disc quality, what is the right way to do it?

yes, if you order unbranded TYs from a reputable store online, you will 100% definitely get the YUDEN000T02 media ID coding~ :)
as to your TY coding on those Verb MCC003s, i was gonna say, HOW THE HECK DID HE GET THOSE? what part of the country, assuming you are here in the U.S., did he buy HIS MEDIA from? LOL if you hadn't updated your findings, i was about to poke you to death with questions so i could get some "Verb TYs" (as creaky calls em') here in the U.S. LOL~ :)
@cyprusrom
i have an NEC drive too, it's much older than the one you use, but it's the 3520a...i have it on my 2nd comp. as a backup drive, so i don't use it all that often...however, i CAN tell you that when it comes to Pioneer and NEC drives (in particular), you really shouldn't put too much weight on their quality scan results; my Pioneer dvr-109 (w/ hacked 8.58 buffalo firmware) and my NEC 3520a (w/ official 3.07 nec firmware) are by far the most INCONSISTENT scanners i have...with the pioneer being in front~ LOL :) i don't know if NEC has improved the quality of their drives in the more recent offerings, but remember, i have an older model that is a solid burner to base my opinions on...
i've ran the same disc through my benq and my liteon and then thru my pioneer and nec just for fun to see how big the discrepency would be...i got 97 (benq)/ 99 (liteon)/ 40 (pioneer)/ 65 (nec)...mind you, this is an unbranded 8x DVD+R YUDEN000T02 disc burned @8x (i burn everything @8x since i've been comfortable with that speed for the better part of 2 years)...so, yeah, those are the results (sorry, i don't have time to take screen shots/cut & paste/host pics/put them up here for "proof", but you're just gonna have to believe me) :) mind you the dvd plays FLAWLESSLY on all my standalone players without a hiccup as well as on the PC~ :)
so, with the scans you have up, i would say that they are pretty darn good, regardless of what scanning speed you had set them on...while i am a big advocate of 'burning faster' than 4x, you wouldn't believe how long it's been since i've burned @4x LOL; i DO NOT suggest to "overburn" as you have done (ie. burning FASTER than the rated speed of the disc) :)
from MY experience, i burn the 8x rated MCC & TY discs @8x, NEVER slower, never faster...with the 16x rated MCCs and the 'not so good' 16x TYG03 DVD-R (my own opinion of course), i still maintain my @8x burn speed, but @12x on those i get very decent results, hellava lot better than burning @4x on a 16x rated quality disc~ :)
we all have our pet peeves about scanning, many of our opinions will vary greatly as to which is the "best" prog. and what is the "best" speed to scan at...then you mix into the bowl WHICH drive you are actually using to scan and then you got a big debate about "my scores are accurate, urs are not..blah blah blah"...so i try not to get too caught up in the whole thing...
my suggestion to you, be content with your quality NEC burner, if it gives you great backups with no flaws/skipping/freezing/etc. during playback, use your quality scan scores as just a "guideline" and nothing more than that...as long as you use good quality media, those should remain as good as they are now when you first viewed them~ :)

Well, I was thinking the same, that was the conclusion that I came to.I guess I just wanted an input from someone with a lot more burning experience that would confirm my deduction. I have no complains about my NEC burner. When I burn within the rated speeds(I only have so far 2 overburns:~), just to experiment, just because"I could" do it!), is quiet like a sleepin puppy while burning,since I got the mod firmware, and it booktypes! All the backups play flawlessly.
As for the quality media, those are the 4 types that I use only(remember I told you about those Maxell I once found, 50pk for a little under $6), I went back an I found some not just MIT but also MIJ.I got about 300 now.
Thanx. I'll go back to lurking...:~)!

Before I knew which brands were better than others, I was using mostly Memorex +R and occasionally Sony +R to backup my DVD movies. I've had a few problems here and there with both but in general most of them played fine in my stand alone DVD player as well as my computer.
Once I began doing some research and read quite a few reviews stating that Memorex DVD's pretty much SUCK, I decided to put away what was left of my Memorex spindle and ordered 200 Taiyo Yuden -R 8x from supermedisstore.
The problem I have is that the backups that I make using the Taiyo Yudens ONLY play when in my DVD burner (SONY DRX-530UL), the internal DVD drive in my computer (read only) won't even recognize the discs and my stand-alone DVD player keeps giving me the message "Disc is dirty" which I have never seen it do before. I've tried this so far with about 7 discs, all with the same results.
I spoke to supermediastore and they are willing to replace the discs or credit me, however I'm still in the need of discs and according to what I've read TY is the way to go, so I'm trying to get to the bottom of this problem. I use DVD Fab Decrypter and Shrink/Nero to burn the backups. The only thing I can think of is that it has something to do with me using -R discs (since I've always used +R discs in the past), but the SONY DRX-530UL is capable of burning both +/- and I'm almost positive that I've played both +/- in my DVD player and computer before.
I'm stumped! Can any of you guys give me some insight as to what might be the problem?
Thanks.

@docTY: First off, sorry for the belated thank you on the SolidBurn information. I read it, but didn't have time to reply earlier. I was sort of thinking from reading in context that this is what it did, but since I'd never heard of that feature on a drive before, I wasn't comfortable making that assumption. I'm looking forward to trying it out on some cutting edge high quality media in the future. :)
@Novakane: You know, standalone players are a totally different animal, as far as I'm concerned. There are SO many different players out there, and each one seems a little different from the next. Sure, we can talk comfortably about rewriters, PS2s, and such, but that's because they fall into some general "buckets" and have consistent firmware. Thus, it's fairly easy to find out what media works with what burner or with a PS2. Here's an interesting scenario I just had today:
I bought this new Toshiba Progressive Scan standalone player just to try it out. My JVC was not playing movies that well (lots of artifacting) and I wanted a replacement. So, I try this player out with a TDK DVD-R (yes, I know that's pretty much junk media), since the player is supposed to play them, but not DVD+R (although I am pretty sure it would play booktyped to ROM, not that I'm ever going to find out...). So, the movie spins up, I start watching, and what happens? The movie starts freezing, skipping chapters, sometimes huge sections of the movie, because it doesn't like that particular media. Now my movies have all played fine in the JVC, with the exception of some artifacting. It NEVER skips whole chapters or freezes up. My Sanyo works pretty well, also, except it can't translate PAL into NTSC like the JVC. It, too, doesn't skip chapters or freeze that or any other disc I've tried.
Moral of the story: The easiest variables to control are the media you use and the burner you use to burn it with. So, use the best of both and find a standalone that will accept the best, since settling for less just because it's compatible is going to leave you with a bunch of rapidly decaying media that will soon be a stack of coasters. :)

@Novakane
Just out of curiousity, what's the model # of the stand alone player you're trying the -TY 8x media on. I'm curious because I had the same problem about a month ago with the same media. I purchased a 100 spool and finally had to return them. I have 2 stand alones and both will not play TY-R 8x. Both have played everything perfectly in the + and - formats that I've ever thown at them including + -RW, never any problems. The only exception is they won't play TY 8x -R. Both play TY +R's and everything else flawlessly without booktyping. Which I can't do on my Pioneer drive without upgrading to hacked firmware. Anyway just wondering, since -R is SUPPOSED to be more compatible in stand alones and we're the only 2 that I've ever heard of having this problem. Oh if your interested my stand alones are Apex AD-1500 and Memeorex MVD2042.

The old scenereo that dvd-r's are more compatable with stand alone dvd players really no longer holds water. If anything the newer stand alone players are more compatable with dvd+r's. For older stand alone players (3+ yrs) the old rule that dvd-r's are more compatable generally still applies. You can plug your make of stand alone player in here http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers.php then locate your model to find out what media and format it does and doesn't like.

@mort81: I'm glad you shared that information about DVD-Video players being more compatible with DVD+Rs nowadays. I'd really like to limit myself to maybe one or two types of DVD media, if possible (Taiyo Yudens are a must-have, I'll always be keeping some of those around, and since I tend to find Verbatims on sale quite a bit, I was thinking of buying DVD+Rs of those, as well.). My Lite-On drive doesn't seem to like my Verbatims very much (scans show many more errors and failures, so far, and one actually failed), so I'm hoping the Benq will perform as admirably as others have reported.

delateur,
My litey SOHW-1633S didn't used to like verbatim dvd+r's but after a crossflash with SOHW-1653S firmware and an eeprom reset with the lite-on eeprom utility available here http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=83441 it burns the verbatim's nearly as well as my benq DW1620.

@mort81: Hey, that's great info! Since I'm only really banking on Verbs and TYs for my burning needs, I'll go ahead and follow suit. I'll let you know how it turns out when I next need to burn something. Thanks!
Edit: Ok, flashed myself a modified KSOB, reset my learned settings with that utility, and burned a Verb that I'd swear was a TY, another 100% using a quickscan, that's what I like to see! :) Thanks, mort, I think this is the best my Lite-On has run since I got it.

Jake02 as kivory said you will be fine with the TY DVD+R coding out as the real thing iam sure of it
that just stumps me with the TY DVD-R not playing on your standalone guys i use the TYGO2s DVD-R on 100s of dvd players and i think only two decks havent worked . IMHO i just think its an compatible issue between the burner/software used, Jake if your interested PM me and i will send you a TYGO2 DVD-R that i burned with my Plextor using CloneDVD 2 with AnyDVD and see if it works on your Apex i would almost bet it would play on your standalone

delateur,
Glad to hear that litey is back up to snuff. Little tricks I've learned over the years of owning a lite-on. Happy burning.

I ordered some TY DVD+R media from Meritline. I got them yesterday and I'm positive that they're the real thing. I always check out the coding on the disc and the manufacturer. The coding on the inner hub of the disc is TG001162, the manufacturer name is Taiyo Yuden Co. Ltd., the manufacturer ID is Yuden000 and the media type ID is T02. This is genuine TY media, right?
