I was told by a guy in the know that the darker puple Ritex 2x DVD-Rs are better for all round usage. He also said that they are especially good for use with PS2s. The ones i use are plain white ontop and no distorted edges. I have authored 3 DVDs so far and they play fine in my Pioneer DVR-104 w/PowerDVD.

Is your PS2 chipped?

So would it be your opinion that PS2 disks run differently wether it was chipped or not?

Not sure what your talking about. For ps2 backups you need a chip. For dvd movies it doesn't matter if you have a chip or not. They play just as well without a chip.

Ok, i was not talking about 'back ups'. I was meaning when you DL from the net (.cue) and burn a PS2 game disk.

I also bought some Ritek from ALLMEDIAOUTLET.COM. They have worked great for movies and PS2. These are the G03 as DVD decrypter shows. Silver top and dark purple bottom. I have burned movies that are 4.37gigs and never had freezing at the end like some reported. Great media!

Yup, just got a batch of those silver 4x Ritek and they were very good. My PS2 seems to like them. Only one time has it went into the "please insert PS2 screen" unlike my old Princo disc which would go into that screen about 20 to 30 percent of the time when it boots up. By the way I got them for $1.79 each at shop4tech.com.
