NOOOO! Imation DVD+R with CMC dye

[Kingnog]

I just bought the Imation disks that were on sale at OfficeMax that people were talking about (10 for 10 bucks with mail in rebate). They're 2.4x DVD+R disks (at least, 2.4x on my burner, doesnt mention speed on the box). Heres my problem:

So far, my standalone has been able to play cheap DVD+RW and DVD-RW disks. DVD-Rs are not recognized, and COMPUSA brand DVD+R's playback 2 seconds and then freeze.

These imation disks play fine on the computer, but in the standalone they glitch constantly! Is it the drive, is it nero, is it the disks? Anybody tried?

It may be the + format and not the disk causing the compatability.

Will - format disks play in the standalone?

[kenshin himura]

he said - isnt recognized.

+RW plays perfectly, I just dont want to spend more money on a rewriteable!

-RW also works, with minor glitches, prolly from the media

+r has major glitches

-r (only tried one brand) is not recognized

I have a DMTECH player....cheapo....anyone have it?

i bought a 50 pack of the same imation dvd+r on sale at bestbuy a few weeks ago. 2.4x like yours, and i dont have any problems with them at all. gotta be your player.

[Kingnog]

I was hoping that wasnt it

Is this the media code on the disc CMC MAG R01 it’s the only media I’ve ever had a problem with it’s more than likely the disc not your player.

[kenshin himura]

that the same media code on my discs, and no problems. play perfect on my sony ns725

[goldmember1]

Good that it plays on your Sony but compatibility with that media code isn’t great I’ve tested it.
