Cool!!!
I hope mine work out good, i just ordered 100 of them yesterday,
But i ordered dvd+r's because i like to bookset them at "rom"
Thanks for the info!!!

[dmagic1]

Yes please let us know if the problems are still there with the DVD+R.

[Gen-An]

Interesting, they've switched back to the MCC media code. Seems like people were having lots of problems with the ProdiscF01 white inkjet printables, but it didn't seem to affect the non-printable discs. Nice to see Prodisc has apparantly sorted out the issues.

[dmagic1]

MCC for the DVD-R?

[maldb]

How about some scans????

[Bodyslide]

[zanos]

Until I hear some reports come in I'm going to assume this is just an isolated case and the F01s are still being sold everywhere.

[snoland]

I'm curious where this goes also. I am trying to decide which is a safer bet. The Prodisc 8x DVD-R or the Ridata G05's Seems like they are both hit and miss right now.

[Supreme2k]

I've bought two separate batches of 100 from Rima, and they're both MCC. I was happy enough with the S03's, so this is an unexpected bonus.

[dmagic1]

Hub printable?

[Supreme2k]

Yes.

[Bodyslide]

Yes, hub printable. The scans above were done on an 8x burn.

[zanos]

I wonder if Supermediastore is also carrying the MCC Prodisc printables.

[Bodyslide]

The last ones I got from Supermedia were the S04's. That was in early January.

[lordsmurf]

At least 3-5 people today alone have told me stores are sending MCC02RG20 for 8x PRODISC inkjet media. At least two stores.

[dmagic1]

Whats the other stores besides Rima?

[Noahtuck]

I just got my Prodisc Hub Printable 8X dvd+r's From RIMA.com, here is the screen shot of the media code,

What do you use to check your media codes ?

[RickTheRed]

Noahtuck,
This thread is about Prodisc -R 8x, which has several media codes, but the prefered one (I think) is MCC 02RG20.

You are talking about +R 8x which is typically R03, usually good (not excellent) media.

[Bodyslide]

I use DVDDecrypter.

Ummmm... i know.... just not in the title

If Bodyslide does not want me to post this here i won't
Just thought it was about "Prodisc Media from Rima.com 8x Inkjet printable" :P

[dmagic1]

Considering there have been issues with both - and + I think we all would like to know your results.

[RickTheRed]

Yeap,
Got a point here.

Anyway, this is good news that the MCC code is back.
The best online Canadian store, blankmedia.ca, has stopped selling Prodisc -R 8x, as you can see

Due to problems in supplying the Prodisc MCC media code, we will be discontinuing the sale of these disks for the present time. The ProdiscF01 code on the WIHP disks has compatibility problems with too many burners. If you decide to shop for these elsewhere, please be careful, and try a sample first.

Maybe they will be back!

[Bodyslide]

I changed the title to now be DVD-R. You can post info on the +R here to.

[chas0039]

If these stay MCC I would be overjoyed. Here is a scan on a MCC01RG20. My scans on the 02 are only slightly higher at beginning and end. Do not expect as good if you do not have a 3500.

[dmagic1]

I'm just wondering how long will they have the MCC. The last thing I want is to end up with Prodisc S or F in their current state.

[TOpclass]

I ordered -r 8x prodisk from rima a month ago and supermedia a week ago and they are both mmc. burn at 12x if you want. I will prob, still with this intill they change. I burned about 300+ dvd-r's and no coasters and no read errors burning at 8x. Qhen i burn at 12x i good good scans but when i watch the movie there are some glitches in it. Just some info

[Noahtuck]

Okay, here are a couple of scans of the Prodisc dvd+r hub printable
The media codes are posted above.
This is the first disc from a 50pack.
All burnt at 6X


This is the 4th from the same spindle


Now the problem..... from disc 5 to disc 9 so far.... they have all been coasters, opened the second 50 pack.... same problem after disc 5 they all went to hell!!!!! I have not even burned this many coasters going through 100's of dvd's let alone in one 50 pack!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very unhappy with these "+" disc's
Gonna e-mail Rima to see what they will do on a return or exchange for some other's, only problem is i want "+" and i don't see any other hub printables there
If you want i can post a scan of one of the coasters.

9 coasters & 12 good disc's out of 21 & the all the coasters seem to have a problem near the end, like when i watch them they start to pixalize, stutter, freeze... but the videos are only around 3.72 - 4 gigs.

[chas0039]

Sorry about your coasters. This is a continuation of a long series of Prodisc printable 8X problems.

[snoland]

I'd look close at your burner. Might need a firmware flash. I have burned quite a few of those discs on my NEC 2510 (herrie 2.18 hacked firmware) with awesome results. My reader is a Lite-On SOHC 5232K also with hacked firmare so that it reads at 16X. Nero CD-DVD speed shows a very nice slope. No dips and spikes.
