Apple dvd-r & A04

wilky · #1 19-06-2002, 07:37

Has everyone here had success burning PS2 games with the apple dvd-r media and the pioneer A04 . I see that pioneer , verbatim and apple dvd-r are the best recomended media to use and so far I have found out of those 3 that apple dvd-r's(at its web site) is cheapest here in Australia @ AU$55 for a 5 pack free delivery but at the web site it mentions this about them>
Note: these discs are not compatible with DVD-R Authoring drives (i.e. Pioneer 201)
I am hoping this does not mean the A04 may have problems with this media and need confirmation from others here that apple dvd-r is the one to buy before I fork out the $$$ . If anyone knows where I can get a better deal on the above mentioned media here in australia please do let me know

I asked the experts which media to use on the a04 and was advised by Dust to Dust to use Traxdata.
I don't know if there available in Aussie land but if they are give them a try.
I have a new machine coming next week with the a04 and i've ordered some Traxdata and can't wait to do some dvd burning.
Incidentally Charlie has done some excellent tutorials on how to use nero 5 and PrimoDVD software.
Ask for the link if you want it.
