| 288461 | 2004-11-06 01:37:00 | Hi Experts I am using Laser 4x DVD-R's (A20 dye) with my LiteOn 832s burner. They burn great, both as DVD ROM and Movie "Backups", and read/play no problem on the burner. I cannot get them to read on any other DVD ROM drive I try, including my new BTC which is speced to read DVD-R. Is the A20 dye a problem.... anybody....? |

| 288463 | 2004-11-06 02:03:00 | You might have to try a few different brands of disk, until you fnd one which works with all the drives you use. I'm sure they try to make everything work together. ;-)But maybe the beancounters found a source for cheaper dye. | Graham L (2) | ||

| 288465 | 2004-11-06 02:57:00 | Ive found those Laser disc's of poor quality. I love my Princo's. Get them from supercheappc.biz for a great price. I just picked up 50 this morning :-) |

| 288470 | 2004-11-08 03:41:00 | Thanks Guys, will certainly look at other brands. Turns out these discs read fine on a new $100.00 Dick Smith DVD player, so not sure what the problem is. Cheerz |
