Ok its not funny anymore. I have about 3 200 disc cd wallets of dvdrs of misc crap. About a month ago i noticed that my dvd movies werent playing at the end of some newly burnt movies. These were prodisc 8+ +r's burnt at 8x on a liteon. So i started doing random spot checks. All the prodiscs are bad and unreadable alittle past the 50% mark. Ive gone through 50 or so test so far. Pi errors in the 800's and pif errors in the 200's across the board. Now im trying to rebuild some stuff and it looks like almost all the discs ive burnt over the past 2 years are bad. Talking at least 3 diff burners and media from memorex/ritek/prodisc/ricoh.
I dont get it. I know for a fact that after alot of these discs were burnt the error rates were very low ( under 50pi and under 4pif). Now the same disc like 6 months later is bad. These discs where just in cd wallets, in a 70 degree room with no outside like.
Is there any hope? Im testing with a liteon 163sreader and a nec 3500 writer but so far non of the 4+ gig burns are workable.
The both rip real dvds fine.
