Princo

I just bought a pioneer dvdr a04 on ebay and i was looking for which media to buy (cheap that is).

Sorry if this was answered already (I did a search) but I got lots of mixed mesages.

1. Will princo dvdr's work fine with the a04? Some say they do some say they don't. All over ebay they say they do so I dont know.

2. If it does work will a low quality dvdr ruin my ps2 laser?


Tnx

I beleive Charlie_PS2 and Dust2Dust both have used Princo DVD-R's...... From what I have heard they are pretty good media..... I think Dust said the only problem he had was with Princo CD-R's (not DVD-R's) in his a04.....

I have been using that media for a while now mainly on dvd movie and its work great on my a03.Never use it on my ps2 back up.It should be ok on your a04 depanding on what u using for.
If u r in u.k than try the new media call generation 4.I been using this media for my ps2 and i never had a problem with it.Beside it just cost around £1.00 per disc

Princo is decent. You may have problems if you write on them. They are very delicate discs.


Im talking about the dvd-r's, I have never used the cdr's.

I have tried it a few months back. I would give it about an 80% working rate.

Not bad for 80%working rate.I might try it myself one day.
Currently I have been using Traxdata or the new generation 4 media and I give them 99% working rate.
I quiet like the new generation4 media because u can either get it on printable surface with work out around £1.25 per disc or u can get on normal dvd-r around £1.00

Most of the media nowadays r quiet good. Is only the unbrand media that give a bad name to the media. They r crap!!!

Cool post your results, but do at least ten copies before you do post.
