chewy Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 this part seems to show the obvious impact of how each firmware overspeeds or not, notice the benq! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 The BenQ looks nice doesn't it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 And notice the speed it burned the 8x media at, a TYG03 might not be so pretty, it's not in my Benq at 16x. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I think it was corny who said the 16x burns on the TYG03's aren't as nice to me...... Maybe firmware updates will fix that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 (edited) http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=507 I don't get this kind of burn at 16x on any mature firmware. Edited January 12, 2006 by chewy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 and that was with my nec 3550 @ 8x now compare with LUK's 4550 burn at 16x on same media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grain Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I've had much better scans w/ TYG02's burned at 8X over 12 or 16X, doesn't matter if Plex716 or NEC3520, haven't tried the BenQ1655 yet. TYG03's burned at 16X don't scan as nice as TYG02's at 8X, but they're better than TYG02's at 16X, and there was some improvement the more I burned, learning firmware?

Grain Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 learning firmware? now that's a ghost I have been chasing for over 3 months And what conclusion did you arrive at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 learning firmware? now that's a ghost I have been chasing for over 3 months And what conclusion did you arrive at? There's something to that theory(hypothesis), but every time I think I have caught the devil, media inconsistency lets him go and the chase begins all over. That's why I call him a ghost. I am gonna defintely scan all burns with all media when NEC releases new firmware for the 3550. Or I get that other ghost, my Benq 1650. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After rereading this, I would like to add, my TYG03 seems to be slightly better media than my TYG02, but my TYG01 beat both of them at 8x, notice I used past tense, they are all gone! Of course this is just a few percentage points in the upper 90's. After scanning 50-60 old disks this week, a 96 doesn't seem much different from a 98. When you scan a year old ritek G05, it puts it all in perspective. When the disk hits zero less than halfway thru the scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grain Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 (edited) I luckily missed out on having RITEKG05 problems. After I noticed that the very first spindle of DVD's I bot were shitting the bed after only 3 months (the hugely famous brand name of e3Works, media id: 001-00 ), I switched almost exclusively to Taiyo Yuden (also some Verbs & Ricohjpn), for several reason's, one of which was the LG 4120 burner I was using at the time didn't like Ritek(lucky break). I've bot some spindles of RITEKG05's over the past year or so, but haven't used them for any personal archiving other than the odd 1 here & there. Have an old spindle of BenQ 4X +R(DAXON) that actually scan quite nicely even after a couple years. Anyway, I know the pain of having achives fail .

lfcrule1972 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I am sure in the hundreds of pages of info on the DW1655 that I have read it claims that the drive optimises it write qualities as it goes. It continued with a piece on writing to media that it doesn't recognise from its firmware..... If its true - that's clever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewy Posted January 13, 2006 Author Share Posted January 13, 2006 now what would make this scan and disk unique? I knew sooner or later I would find one!]My Webpage[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
