I have an HP dc5000 or 630c as the software shows it. connection is usb2 to my laptop.
burned tons of sl dvd's and a few DL.
got a deal on Fugi dvd dl from Best Buy. little did I know that they were really Ritek D01
I know they are crap but I did get 2 good burns. now I have 5 coasters sitting here in front of me.
is the failure rate on these that bad?
I have tried dvdshrink, dvdclone, ultraiso and now pgcedit and imgburn.
here is the log file just too see if there is something else other than just crap media
