Curious to see how this replacement drive does. But isn't Oct. 2006 a step backward since the previous drive was Nov. 2006 and came w/ FW GL0F? Anyway, I'm sure the tests will tell. And I can't get over it didn't like your TY media. Definitly a bad drive. Hope you have better luck w/ the new one.
On a related side topic, I decided last night to rescan a couple test DVDs I had burned and scanned pre-18A1P, the damn scores improved drastically when scanned on the 18A1P vs. my Pioneer A05 (burned on an LG4167B). Oh well.

yea the other drive was made in dec 06 and came with the glof firmware.. and i know for sure this one comes with the gloc firmware. it is totaly diferent from the other drive.. this one is tan on the back and the other was black. and mine has the same date as my buddy here at work has. dont think i will have any problem with it....
checkl this out though.. my buddy here at work that has the same drive. he just bought 100 8x-r ty's he burns to them great.. but the Nero scan we use wont read the burnt disc.. he puts it in dvdinfopro and that works fine???? any ideas on this ?

cincyrob,
What are the symptoms of the drive in question? It won't use Nero Scan? Which version? 4.7.0.2? I would think that it should do anything another drive might do on his system.
Try this if you have XP: Right click on My Computer, click properties, click hardware tab, double click DVD drives to expand, right click the drive in question and choose uninstall. Restart the computer and the drive should be re-installed. See if this does anything to help the situation. You might try downloading the Nero application again to see if there is a problem there too.
I had to do this today on my SHW-160P6S, for some reason the darn thing wouldn't eject a disc. I went through everything that I could think of to eject besides shake the crap out of the puter. lol. Re-installing was the only thing that would get the dang disc out of there. ;-)
Just to keep somewhere on topic. Here's a scan of a TDK 003. I know, I know, it's a TDK but I got them for cheap and I was running out of give aways so these are them. LOL. For $25/100 ($11.99+tax each 50 pack) with tax really hard to beat and besides I had a $20 gift card. (SO $5 bucks out of pocket) ;-) Consistent PIE's and the PIF's are little high, but this is the first burn and not that bad really. I still think that the YUDEN T02 is TIP-TOP in the media world. LOL.

I'll be honest here! These reports of the LH-18A1P not working properly are disturbing at best. Try the things I mentioned cincyrob and if that doesn't do something maybe one of the more knowledgeable members will kick in a few ideas to fix the issue. :)
There are other drives available by LITEON but I really like the ones that I have (SOHW-1693S, SHW-160P6S, LH-18A1P). What other drive maker is left besides NEC, Plextor, and Pioneer. Most Sony's are outsourced and the other drive makers like Samsung, AOpen, Toshiba, Philips, Asus, LG, and some others aren't smiled UPON as much as the first few mentioned. I'm not knocking any of the second makers (I have a Samsung and like it actually) but they aren't touted as much as the others. Like I said this really bothers me that a couple of my friends have had difficulties with this new drive.
Now if they were idiots or mentally challenged I'd think nothing of it and go on but they're NOT. lol. cincyrob I'm really curious to see how this new drive of yours works out. You gotta email me or post as soon as you can. TONITE isn't to soon in my book. LOL. I'll be up late as usual so get off early and do a burn and scan ASAP. ;-)
.....gm
Just checkin here; the drive will read everything but the TYG03 with Nero Scan? That is very odd indeed. You've checked all the settings and such to make sure it's burning ok. How bout playback in a standalone player? Has he re-flashed the f/w and all that stuff? Man I'm almost lost here, like I'm not most of the time anyway. hehehe. Ok enough to think about, get to burning with that new LITEY buddy.

Might not be the issue but I'll throw it in anyhow :)
If the jitter test is turned on - turn it off. I had a problem w/ externals not doing a scan if this was on - turned it off & all ok.
I might be in la-la by the time you post the scan cincy but I'll be
back :0)

Howdy binks ;-)
Next scan of a TDK003 and a little better than the last one. These aren't to bad in my book especially for give-aways. lol. What's funny to me at least, lol, is I went to a link at DigitalFAQ.com and they consider TDK media in the first class line of media. How and why? Some of the older stuff (by TY...lol) where pretty good but supposedly the new media is less than desirable by most here at AD. hhmmmmm..... The list seems updated too. It has some of the newest 16X media on there, so does that mean it's up to date and has some validity? Just wondering...;-) here's the link

cincyrob where's that scan and where's my BUD? hehehe. How was work, long having to wait and get that new drive installed? lol.

Me either alphabet. He's been dealing with this on 2 drives now. I can't believe it would be a firmware thing. I have the same f/w (GLOF) and burn YUDEN T02's like a champ. Good payback and great scans. You got any ideas?

OMGosh....lol School for Scoundrels looks so funny!
OK cincyrob, what's the dang deal? Did you get it to eject the disc? If not try the procedure I mentioned a post or two above. That might even fix some underlying problem. :)
Let us know how it's going.
btw I got your email. THANKS!!
.....gm
Forgot to show these. I did the same "image" 3 times; 1 with CloneDVD at 12X, 1 with IMGBURN at 12X, and 1 with IMGBURN at 6X and it seems this media likes the 6X burn better with my system. I'll keep experimenting but this is the results of the 3 scans. :)
Clone at 12X

IMGBURN at 12X

IMGBURN at 6X

rob try burning that same image with IMGBURN to see what happens. You may have to re-install some of your progies just because you can to give the machine a fresh look at things. I know some people that re-install Windows more than once a year just for that reason. Doesn't make much sense to me but it would clean the system out so to say. :)
btw that's a pretty good scan with a YUDEN T02. First one since the re-install of the new drive, right?
....gm
Man I just thought of something. Do you disable AnyDVD when you use RI4M or use another burning progie. Something to think about, I've heard of AnyDVD interfering with other programs for some reason. Best to turn it OFF when not in use I say. ;-) Another thing to consider buddy. I don't know what else to say on this. Like aabbccdd said it should work.

well i got a second burn onto TY media. was able to use imageburn this time burnt onto one of the few 8x+rsony (mij) i have left. if i am able to burn more like this, it has to be a firmware problem. i wasnt able to use imageburn at first. i used Nero express and burned the first. now i am able to burn with imageburn.. still cant burn with Nero recode or clonedvd2... i can scan ty's with no problem gettinf ready to try a 8x-r TY now..
heres a scan of the sony mij 8x+r..

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO SAY......i have 30 day i can keep it and see if it learns the media to let me burn with the other programs.on the 28th day im gettin a RMA #..lolive tried everything to get it to burn with CloneDVD.. i do have 2 programs to burn with now Nero express and imageburn... just not my FAV though..check this out i burnt onto one of the 8x-r's my buddy just got.. and i cant do anything with the Nero speed check just like him.it lock Nero up wont do anything, as far as that goes the 8x-r i burnt that he got i cant scan it on my older liteon it locks up too. but check this out the disc he burnt onto the 8x-r i can check it on Nero... seems like that if we burn the disc we cant check it with Nero. JUST DONT MAKE SENSE TO ME...... i understand that it might be so new that the firmware isnt working but damn it should at least burn the good stuff....
if all else fails il send it back and take me a trip to INDY and visit aabbccdd and see about tradein for one of them fine azz plexy's...lmao

ROFLMAO @ cincyrob,
You better be careful talkin to aabbccdd like that he may never reply again. LOL. I bet you couldn't pry one of those out of his dying hand, any takers on that. hehehehe.
cincyrob,
I don't know what to say? Maybe I got the only good one in the batch. It would be different if your other drive was acting up but it's not soooooo maybe a different drive might be the thing to look at. I will get with you later and see what you think and what options you have picked out. ;-)
...gm
btw I said that because I know that dude is going back. You're just like me if that baby doesn't work right, as long as you know what the root of the cause is, back she goes. LOL. :-)
EDIT: Not that this means a hill of beans but I thought of something that may be worth looking into the next couple of days. I know that DELL puters prefer the cable select jumper setting and the HP might be the same. I really am grasping at something intangible now but what else could hurt at this point. BUDDY I'm sorry that you're having these kind of problems. It doesn't seem fair that mine works so well and yours hates your guts. LOL.
