Customer Review: Burn at a slower speed when you have problem DVDs
Summary: 5 Stars
I haven't bought Verbatim blank DVDs recently, so I can't comment directly on them (but since you can't post a review without choosing a star rating, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt, and giving them a 5 star), but I've just been dealing with a batch of Memorex 8x dual-layer DVDs, and I'm getting a lot of failed burns to them, at full 8x speed, on my two Macs (a Quicksilver 867 MHz with a Pioneer DVR-115D burner, and a Mirrored Drive Doors 1.25 GHz dual with a Pioneer DVR-112D), using Roxio Toast. I dropped the burn speed to 4x, and at that speed, they're burning and verifying fine.
So if you find yourself stuck with a batch that's failing to burn or verify, drop the burn speed down a notch, if your burning software allows it, until you've used up that batch, and then go buy a better brand, which from these reviews, sounds like Verbatim is one.
Customer Review: A very good purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
If you decide to burn a regular movie in a regular empty dvd, sorry!, that's not possible my friend, 'cause with all kind of information like other lenguages, subtittles, comments from the director, producer, bla, bla, bla, that are included normally, it takes more than the capacity of these devices. But when you use these new items, wow!, the quality is just equal to the original movie plus all the movie menu!. CAUTION: YOUR DVD BURNER MUST HAVE A DOUBLE LAYER RECORDER!Customer Review: works fine
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the first time I've had to buy dual layer dvds. I got them to burn a movie I made onto it. I want the best quality I can for this movie and something that always affects the quality of a dvd is the burn speed you set it at. I set this one to x2 or even x1 just to be safe. The two copies I made came out fine. Burning a dvd at it's fastest speed possible is just asking for trouble. Always take the safe route and go for the slow burn and they'll turn out fine!Customer Review: Best Double Layer DVD for Intel iMac
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first choice for a double layer DVD for use on the Intel iMac. Initially I bought Memorex because they were cheaper (25 for $30, or $1.20 each) versus Verbatim (10 for $22.50, or $2.25 each). However, after factoring in the number of Memorex discs that failed to burn properly, I bet the costs are roughly the same. Choose Verbatim if you want reliability; choose Memorex if you want to save money and don't mind creating coasters now and then.Customer Review: Guy with the Sony RDR-VX515
Summary: 5 Stars
I looked up your DVD Player & it didn't say it supported Duel Layer DVD discs so that could be your problem.
As for me, I'm using an HP-DVD640 and these work great for me so far. I've used 5 already and no coaster which I'm thankful for cause they aren't cheap when you buy the 3 packs offline.
I've done both Data and Movies with them & they are great!
