mmalves Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I 18:29:21 Destination Media Type: DVD+R DL (Disc ID: RITEK-S04-66) (Speeds: 2.4x) Your burner doesn't support those discs. Try with Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL blanks and it should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmalves Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I 18:29:21 Destination Device: [1:0:0] MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-841S 1.60 (D:) (ATA) You know a burner is crappy quality when even the manufacturer acknowledges such fact in the product's name Seriously, though, laptop burners aren't great for dual-layer burning, so your best chance of getting a good burn is using the Verbatim 2.4x blanks. You may be able to burn those other dual-layer discs with a different burner, preferably a recent full size one in a desktop computer or an external enclosure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feehshatl Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 yea i hear ya, the other comp was much better quality than this shitbox i am using now. any recommendations for a good cheap external? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 If it was me I would get the newest internal full size model from Pioneer or Optiarc and put it in an external enclosure. Now if you want a factory-assembled external model there are several from LG, Samsung, Lite-On, Pioneer, etc, but they might be more expensive than assembling one yourself, and depending on their firmware updates they might not be as good as an internal drive in an external enclosure.
