  1. I should know in about a week if the ones I ordered are legit or not. I didn't know about the sale until I read about it on the redfox forums. I was down to my last 50 discs, so when I read that, didn't hesitate for a minute and ordered them. 2 months since the sale probably won't have stocks deplete and be replaced by cmc crap.

    When they pan out, I'm ordering more

  2. They're still in business because they sell a ton, just because you sell a lot doesn't make it good. Cmc crap is known to become unreadable after months or a few years, fail to verify immediate after a disc gets burned, playback of the disc flat out refused but standalone players,...

    My verbatim burns have none of that. I have movies I burned 10 years ago, still perfect picture from start to finish, playback refusal? I've yet to encounter a standalone player that refuses one.

    It's not just about how much you sell, it's also about how long your backups hold over time, the quality. If you need to redo the backup every year, because the disc fails to play, who's doing the financial winning here?

    Yes, because of the constant reburns, they'll sell a lot more discs. But the consumer loses on the long run because they have to buy new discs constantly.

    The quality of the real verbatim is more expensive than cmc crap, but for a reason. They're a lot better, and last longer too. That's what counts for me

  3. Well I just ordered 1k of the DVD+R, next up will then another 1k if they're the right MID a little later, and some printable bd-r's when the Bitcoin price goes up. So the little I have is worth more and I can snap up a couple hundred of those too

     

    That said, I'm on the fence on this one. I fully expect quality to drop and I'm prepping for it, but just maybe, now that they'll have the patents, technology, their crappy quality will increase and become the new verbatim (or remain if they keep the brand alive)

  4. It's true https://www.anandtech.com/show/14597/cmc-buys-verbatim-assets-from-mitsubishi

    Which is why tomorrow I'm ordering 1000 of the DVD+R SL tomorrow and I'll probably order 1k more a little while later. Should last me a while.

    I'm expecting quality to drop, but I'll hoping it'll be the other way. That by acquiring verbatim, cmc mag will finally increase their quality due to the IP from verbatim.

    I hate it just as much as you do

  5. Sounds to me your trying to make the iso on a drive that's formatted as FAT32. FAT32 has an inherited maximum file size of 4gb, this CANNOT be changed. If this is the case, you have 1 option, format the drive you're writing the image to as NTFS.

    That said, imgburn isn't really designed to make images of hard drives, there's specialized software for that like macrium reflect or acronis true image

  6. Not with imgburn. It only burns what you feed it. If you burn the mp4's you'll end up with a data disc with mp4's on it. If you want a DVD you'll first need something to convert the files to a valid DVD structure.

  7. Nope, that's not the only thing. Yes they're mainly on triple layer, but there's also significant new info in the mpls/clpi and m2ts files to accommodate for the new audio types, different HDR specifications...

  8. Whether they have been used or not is irrelevant. If the packaging said 'DVD+R' and not 'DVD+RW' you've got SINGLE USE recordable discs. You cannot erase single use discs, period. They're already blank. You can only erase them if the packaging states +/-RW.

  9. Unfortunately, ConvertXToDVD is relatively useless for converting Blu-Ray discs.  Regardless of what you load, the software ONLY loads the main title stream.  You can select other MTS's that are not part of the main title stream, but ConvertXToDVD ALWAYS loads ONLY the main title stream.  This makes the software relatively useless for what I need it to do, which is convert an entire Blu-Ray's contents to DVD.  So, it's back to using Handbrake and my old method of converting to containers first.  default_angry.gif

    That's what convertxtoBD is for ;-) or video converter ultimate depending on your need

  10. What's the exact filename you're trying to burn, what mode are you selecting in IMGburn and what's your playback device. Sounds to me you're either using the wrong mode for what you're trying to do, or you burnt for example an MP4 to disc and your player doesn't support that type of playback.
