Devil may cry trouble?

Hmm, really?

I didnt know that, I thought Verbatim Data-Life PLUS DVD-R's were good for anything (cause normal Data-Life DVD-R's suck totally)

I'll give it a shot, my gf's dad is a videographer and he has like 6 UNOPENED 100 DVD-R packages of RIDATA dvd's!

Is there anyway I can tell if they are G04 or not? Cause nothing is written on the DVD's OR the package? (its a red package for the DVD-R's)

Thanks again

(and no, flip tops rule :P hehe (least cost wise) )

If they are 4x, they are G04, 8x could be G05/G06

lol, Its not that the verbatim's are totally crap, the PS2 has problems reading most media when its burned all the way to the outer edge of the dvd-r. Same can be said for Memorex, TDK, Sony or any media that isnt G04 dye.

Lufcfan --> There's no writing anywhere on the package OR the DVD's themselves that say what speed they are... How can I check?
Just by putting one into a copying program and then seeing how high I can copy something at? (and I think I remember the bottom was purple, if that matters? :P)

Warlock --> But I remember that MK: Deadly Alliance was burned to the edge, and it plays fine? (on Datalife Plus)
(and funny how even $ony's own DVD-rs play like crap in the ps2 :P)

ADVDInfo is the best way to go. Just click 'Get Media Info' and it'll tell you the dye on the disc

Or just ask your gf's dad what speed they write at

Cool! Thanks man, I'll try it out soon as I get there
(and I dont wanna ask the dad... then he'll think im gonna take his dvds or something, or he'll offer me dvds and then I'll owe him hehe)

(Id rather my gf "misplaced" them :P)

lol

Ok well, I got my gf's DVD-r's... they ARE G04 (advdinfo didnt work, so I used DVDinfo pro).

So, I burned at 2x using nero... and STILL, it locks up at the "warning" screen... any ideas now as to why?
