WARNING: Philips dvd+r 25 pack buy1 get1 free at officedepot

[CHAOS]

I don't know if this is a fluke thing, but all the ones me and a buddie bought all have problems with locking up and pixelization.....

The disks do have a manufacturer id...they are CMC...but they are absolutely, hands down..the best media CMC produces. Those Philips disks should be flawless.

Some drives have to have media burned in order to view the manufacturer id. Burn one..then check the id again. It should say 'CMC.'

Hmmm..... well, i bought 50 from one location and my buddie bought 50 from another location and we are both having the exact same problem with them..... they are CRAP!!!
Kind of funny we would both have the same problem from 2 diff stores, so alot of them must have went out bad..... i'll never buy them again, if i have a problem with a brand once... thats it, & i have yet to have one problem with verbatims.... and we both have 2 diff. burnes each, we both have tried them with each burner and diff. recording programs so it is the disc's.....

I bought the DVD-R on that sale and all of the disc's so far have worked flawlessly. By the way they showed up as ProDisc in DVDInfo.

mopar7 You also had problems with them ??

And soundforbjt It is the "+" i am talking about, and they are the same code as defense was talking about being the best media....



And they seemed to be fine initailly..... but upon a deeper inspection started finding all kinds of problems, like a ways into the disc........
