Can Anyone Help
 

I am currently using Datasafe 2x Speed White Top Printable Gen.4 V2 DVD-R media to backup my dvd films. This is the second lot of disks that I have used.

I had no problems using the first set, all films worked ok on PS2 and my Pioneer 105. But now when I am using this second lot, most of them do not even read on either player.

I have not changed my backup method which is copy all files to harddrive using DVDDecrypter, then DVD2One to resize to fit to one dvd-r and finally nero 5.5.10.15 to write the finished film.

Is it possible to get a batch of crap disks or os there something else that I might not of thought of which would cause me all these problems.

It is very possible to get a bad batch. Most stores will let you return them for a refund or replacement.

thanks for the reply bighap (i like your ps3 :D ).

i upgraded my firmware to 1.30 and tried again with success. would this have made my pioneer more acceptable to this type of media?

Yes, thats what the firmware upgrades are for. They add support for different types of media. Glad everything is working out for ya.:)
I want that ps3:p
