Hi there. My first post. Recently installed DVD Decrypter, DVD Shrink and ImgBurn. Very impressed with all 3 esp Imgburn.
Been using only the 4.7gb dvd-r Disks (Taiyo Yuden). No touble so far, been working like a charm until i recently decided to purchase some
8gb Umedisk dvd dl +r. Had three coatsers in a row after using decrypter and then burning with imgburn.
Using a LG GSA 4163b Drive with latest firmware (A105). This paticular firware suposedly supports Ume (Aml 002 0) but then i noticed
that the Umedisk i purchased hav ADVDInfo: RICOHJPND01. Perhaps this could be the reason why the disks are coasting and not
the fact that i hav a bad batch.
Got decent pc specs with windows xp home.
Ive included the log info for those who know how to read this cryptic stuff lol:

Would really appreciate any help as i need to see if i can return these umediscs to the supplier. Btw i just did some research
and found that the best dvd dl +r disks to use with my drive are called MITSUBISHI KAGAKU. Are they any relation to TY or MKM or Verbatim?
