Have you any Verbatim DVD+R DL discs to test with? That seems to be the only recommended DL media on forums such as this one and cdfreaks.

[LIGHTNING UK!]

Update to the 1.08 firmware and as kumi said, buy Verbatim DVD+R DL media, not Ritek.

So it's a media issue? Those Ritek's are cheap that why i gave them a try.

I have Verbatim and they always burn fine.

Maybe the firmware update can help, i'll give it a try.

Maybe the firmware update can help what? Make your crappy media magically work? There's a reason everyone says Ritek is crap. Firmware updates won't change that.

I have never had one Ritek DL work for me. DVD movie or just a data DVD, nothing.

I must have been lucky with 2 RITEK D01 spindles....15pc packed under Fuji's and 25 from Memorex...not one coaster with a fairly new LG's H10N burner. However it is excruciatingly painful to wait & burn at 2.4x, approx 47min whereas Verbatim's 2.4x can be done in 8x speed, about 17min....not buying anymore of these D01s.

Riteks have been used under PGCedit & IMGburn. Always followed the recommended layerbreak.

The recommended NEC firmware update MAY have a enhanced writing strategy for RITEKs...or not. Let us know? :)

Well believe it or not, but magic did happen.

After i updated the firmware of my NEC 4550 from 1.06 to 1.08 five DL's burned successfully so far.
Before i only got one out of five to burn successfully.

Not that i'm happy about the quality.
When testing the disc's with Nero CD/DVD tool, the ratings varry from 20 - 60.
All my Verbatim DL's were about 90+.

Sounds like NEC came up with a better write strategy specific to the Ritek media.

Perhaps, as a result, there will be more postings about successful burns using Ritek D/L DVD+Rs ;>}

A bit off topic but watch Verbatim as well: I bought a spindle of Ritek Verbatims DVD+R 16x "Pearl White" (reorder 43571) a while back. :mad:

I only noticed when I got a coaster. I decided to check the media code and it was Ritek.

I was like WTF? Verbatim almost always uses MCC media, so I bought the spindle expecting it to be MCC as usual.

Went back to the shop and exchanged it for proper MCC Verbatim's.

Boy was I pissed, I even wrote an email to Verbatim Europe to ask WTF they are doing going for crappy Ritek media (no reply of course).

Anyway lesson learned: do not get the Ritek Verbatim's I got and always check the media code just to be sure ;)

Hi!

Just a bit of additional information regarding Verbatim media. Most, if not all, of the Verbatim D/L DVD+Rs bear an MID of "MKM" which, like "MCC" is a Mitsubishi division or subsidiary...

Yeah I know MKM = Mitsubishi Kagaku Media, MCC = Mitsubishi Chemical Company

All I was saying: (unlike I thought) not all Verbatim DVD-R's from the + line are MCC or MKM apparently....

Let's keep an eye on them :)
