Favorite DVD Media Brand?
This may have been asked before, and I hate to repeat questions, but I am looking for what my fellow Vegas + DVD Arch users like to use as a DVD media. I recent switched to Philips 16x, and everything seems great, until it tests out on an X-box. I usually test clients discs on two machines just to make sure that it works. Everything is fine on my panasonic, but on the X-box it get streams of pixilation that come and go. So I attribute that to the disc not being to friend with older players. So… what is everyone else using? I would love to know.
Thanks,

I have used Taiyo Yuden ink jet printable DVD-Rs for a few years, now. Very good and consistant discs. I get them on-line from Supermediastore.com. One of my burners does best at 2X speed, while the other does best at 4X.

I have done some research and testing to find what I consider the best solution for blank DVD. I have been using Verbatim DVDs for several years now and have never burned a coaster or found a problem with any DVD player reading them. I started with 8x and then moved up to 16x. I always burn at the maximum speed because it
