The only reliable DVD

[doggies] “Of course the guy at the mac store says… “You have a problem”…”

I would agree. I’ve burned over 300 DVD’s this year on four different Mac’s (two G5’s, Mac Mini, 17″ Powerbook) and have not had a failure yet with my blanks.

I use the cheapest crappiest DVD’d I can get my hands on and I have not had the Mac turn out a coaster yet. That is to say, I’ve made some pretty crappy disks as I experimented, but the Mac always burned ’em.

One G5 dual 2.5 w/superdrive and one Mac G5 dual 2.7 with the drive that does dual layers

What DVD-r are you using.. brand name ?

: )

[Bret Williams]

He just said, the cheapest ones he can find.

You definitely have a problem. And it’s going to get worse. I’d go ahead and replace your burner. You’re obviously doing a lot of work. You may have just ragged it out. But I’m sure it’s paid for itself many times over. Time to replace it with a faster better one. Just buy a superdrive and stick it in there. It’s very easy. I’ve done it myself on a couple G4s.

Has anyone tried SONY, Philips or Memorex?

[Walter Biscardi]

[Howie] “Has anyone tried SONY, Philips or Memorex?”

Yep, I’ve also used Memorex (in addition to the TDK and Maxell) with great results as well. COSTCO is a great place to purcase 100 DVD-R spindles at a great price.

Princo, Ritek. Never a coaster, but just as important, no incompatible players yet, no returns.
