just another tidbit: the cable 'cant' be faulty - as the transfer tests give a baby bottom smooth graph with average read speeds of 12.5x and max speeds of 16x on even the worst burns i.e. those with quality scores of 0! wondering aloud, i know the quality tests basically give a guideline...

heh, had tried it as master on secondary channel. that didnt help either. thanks for trying though. i'm just hoping that the dvd+r from moser will solve my problem. but since almost everyone says the drive works well with sony media, (and mine barely gives a usable burn with it either sony...

nope. what's worrying is that this is the 2nd drive and it's exhibiting the exact poor burns are the previous one. will try the MOSER DVD+R (MBI101) as mentioned by Eazy. if that fails as well, then it could possibly be some hardware/software glitch on my pc setup...?

heh, thats what all my burns are like. save the samsungs. but again, i'm stressing the samsung 4x spindle i have is using the AZO dye. i.e. good quality

yup OS is disabled. i'm not too sure about BSOB - BSLB and even BSHB gave me 99% burn&scans with the Samsung 4X @ 12x - though i'm pretty sure now that it has to do with that particular series of samsung using the AZO dye (used by Verbatim Singapore and TY Japan)

After a few more burns, i'm quite sure this drive is pretty similar to my older benq 1640 - still prefers the samsung 4x media (MBI 01RG20) and can burn it at 12x with a 99% quality rating. sony (SONY08D1) scans are pretty disappointing, and moser (FUJIFILM03) simply doesnt work. anyways...

please PM/post the telephone number and contact details of the vendor/person in charge of the Philips headphones. I wanna buy a couple myself - Had picked up a Koss KSC 55 and Sennheiser HD 202 from singapore a few months back, but i'm still not totally satisfied...

Get the Pioneer 383; works well with DVD-Rs and i have not encountered a problem with any of the XVIDs i've thrown at it. got mine for 3600 at alfa (irla, mumbai) personally i prefer using the xbox and xbmc. get a wireless bridge and you can watch movies on any TV in the house without even...

yeah that's what i used for changing the write strategy. anyways, got a new 1640, flashed this to BSLB original and did a couple of tests using the Sony -R media. Slight improvement, but the burn and scans were better when I was using the TYG02 write strategy on the BSLB firmware (Compare to...

did that, read the post - Media 3 is Sony DVD+R 8x and it gives horrible burns.

have you any experience with this drive and the media types i've just tested. even i'm not getting a good feeling about the drive, but the samsung 4x @ 8x (MBI 01RG20) burn and scan was excellent. And from what I know, this drive has a preference for TY media, which uses the AZA dye found in the...

Got myself a Benq 1640. Been experimenting to see which media works best with it for me and I've come across some extremely weird results. DVD DRIVE Batch: June 2005 (Made in China) Firmware: BSMB Overspeed: On WOPC: On SolidBurn: On/On MEDIA 1 Brand: Moser Baer DVD-R 8X Media ID...
