BlizzardUK Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 (edited) I did try and do some searches before posting, but I wondered if someone could explain to me the below..... 1. What exactly does VOBU/ECC search mean on the layer break warning screen ? Should I use it if I have problems ? 2. How compatible is the "seamless" feature for the layerbreak as far as standalone DVD players go ? 50 percent ? 70 percent ? Etc etc. I have had many layer break problems in the past, hence these questions. I used the VOBU/ECC feature recently and it seemed to help, but I am unsure of this is coincidence, or if that did actually do something related to the layer break problem. Yes, before the Verbatim crew shout at me, I know it is always best to use that media, but given I spent out for 50 "cheapies" before I knew this, I may as well try and get as good a burns I can from them. At the moment if I select a layer break, then when I "verify" a DL disc it nearly always fails around 50 percent in. My current media I think is RICOH and MCG or something like that. Also to carry on from the Verbatim situation, back when DVD+DLs came out a couple of years ago I always used 2.4x Riteks and they were great (never had a layer break problem). I stopped buying Dual Layers though for a long time and recently bought 50 RICOHs (sp??) which have been very hit and miss. Anyway, my point is, are the riteks still good ? Obviously I don't expect them to be as good as a Edited September 25, 2007 by BlizzardUK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Welcome to ImgBurn Forum. 1. I suppose the prog is offering to break on a VOBU (which is within the cell) and on an error correction boundary (in the event it can't break at a new cell like it is supposed to). I'd reject the offer and remaster the project. 2. Many modern players (and many older ones) seem to play seamless LB OK. No-one can give you a percentage though. However, I'd reckon it is quite high, as superbit DVDs exist which are seamless. Just give it a try. 3. You can do a PIPO scan on your old disk and see if they are still OK.
