What do you think of these 3.00 DVD-r they are selling. Have you had any problems? Are they just as good as a 15.00 dollar DVD-r.
And what are they good for.
Thanks for any info.

When I burn using Prassi Primo DVD on them I get lots of errors. First I thought it was my set top DVD player because the video was EXTREAMLY jerky and would freeze up. Then I had Prassi Record & Verify. Well not even a whole minute into the verify it found errors. I got horriable results while burning from Sonic's DVDit! also. The only way I have had good results is with burning standard data (Non- Video or audio) DVDs in Nero. When I burn a Video DVD in Nero most of the time the DVD will show up as "NO PLAY" on my set top player and can only be viewed back on the PC with Power DVD player. It's a shame too because I LOVE the CD-Rs www.cdrecordable.com makes. I have gotten great results on every disc I have made on other generic brand DVDs. Just look on ebay or yahoo shopping, some are only like 5.00 and work as good as the 15.00 pioneer.

I use a Pioneer A03, Pent 3 933mhz, 512 Megs Ram, 2 100GB 7200 RPM Western Digital HDs

I've had good luck with them.
I have the A-03 burner and have used VideoPack5 to burn DVD's.

The disc's play fine on my Panasonic and Apex DVD players. My sampo is a bit slow to access the menus, but not bad.

My brother has a Philips player that can't play them, but I haven't confirmed that it can play the $10 disc's either.

Right now I'm using them for my own use, but only major brands for customers untill there is more feedback.

I've burned both the cheap cd-recordable.com DVD-Rs and Pioneer DVD-Rs on my DVR-A03 1.65 firmware. The only difference I saw was that the cheap ones could only burn at 1x (burining with Ulead's DVD Movie Factory). Cd-recordable.com claims that they can burn at 2x.

I'm using the cheap ones as "working disks" for my home videos I'm transfering while the Pioneer labelled ones are my backups.

Has anyone got the cd-recordable.com DVD-R's to burn at 2x. If so what burner and software were you using?

Both played fine in my Pioneer dv-525 player.

Someone posted that the A-03 seems to burn all "generic" DVD-R's at 1X.

I had the same problem.
