@ Demonic:
Try burning this Discs using faster Speed (eg 8x, or mabe 6x if your Burner allows to burn at that Speed).
I often got similar Messages when burning at 4x or Slower Speeds.
Newer Burners sometimes got very bad Laser-calibration Data stored in Firmware for such slow Burning-Speeds on 16x Media.
That's exactly what I thought by myself Years ago (you'll also often read such Things about CMC Media at other Forums).
But my personal experience has totally changed that opinion.
EG, i've bought the same Discs as Demonic above (CMC MAG. AM3 / Platinum branded) in a normal 'offline' Shop here in Germany and the Burning Quality was good @16x, very good @12x and nearly excellent @8x using a BenQ-1650 (FW BCDC).
(12x Burns got PIE max. from 25 to 40 and PIF max. of 2 when Scanned at BenQ-1650 at 4x Speed (1ECC)).
But I've also bought CMC Discs at some online Stores (Plattinum & other Brand) that where really absolutely crap.
This crappy Discs always got PIE above 150 (up to more tan 1000) and sometimes PIF of 8 and up (1ECC), no matter what Speed I burned them (and 8x Speed was the slowest Speed that Discs could be burned at, at 4x I only got Messages like Demonic above).
So I might say that the Quality of CMC Media can/will vary from Batch to Batch and mabe also depends on where the Discs are Made (Some Disc Labels like Platinum sometimes don't have Manufacturer Country written on the Package, so I can't realy say where the best are coming from).
For now, if I buy CMC Discs, I always burn 2 or 3 of them and Scan them for PIE/PIF and if the Errors are too high, I'll just return these Discs to where they come from.
And if want/need cheap Discs, I'll buy INFOMEDIAR30 / INFOME-R30 (eg Silver-Circle) which are in my opinion much underestimated Media-Codes and sometimes gave me the same Burn-Quality as Verbatim Discs (sometimes better, depends on where the Verbs are made).
Also we shouldn't forget that some 'MCC...' Discs also are actually made by CMC (MIT) for Verbatim, they soemetimes also got better Quality than eg the Verbatim Discs made by MoserBaer (MII) .
EDIT:
@ Demonic:
I've just seen that you're using Firmware DS02 which seems to be a very old Firmware.
While Searching Google I've seen that there are actually newer Firmwares called DX04, DX06 and also DX14.
As these Firmwares got different naming, i think that they might be OEM Firmwares (or mabe your DS02 is a OEM Firmare), so I don't really know if they are compatible with your Drive (but I've read that some People have successfully flashed from DS06 to DX14).
Sometimes DVD-Drives can be cross-flashed with compatible OEM Firmware (or vice versa) without problems, but sometimes you need some Tricks (or Hacks) to Flash such Firmwares.
If you're interested to flash your Drive with a newer compatible Firmware, you might take a look into the NEC/Optiarc Section of the CDFreaks Forums (club.cdfreaks.com).
There you can get the above mentioned Firmware DX14 (posted 4 weeks ago) and there are also many People around that can Help you with Firmware Problems etc.
I don't know if it's OK to Link to the Page at CDFeaks that I mean, but if you search for "Optiarc DVD RW AD-7560A" on their Site, you'll find the related Thread in one of the first Search-Results (was the 1st result some minutes ago).
