I've been using a 2.4X Sony DRU 500 since they first came out. It has updated firmware for the new 4X disks.
I used up the last of my Memorex 4X DVD +R's and couldn't find more. Got some no-name 1-4X blanks. Movie discs burned on these discs showed video drop out and some jerkyness, making them unpleasant to watch. I got some -R 1-4X blanks and the first burn was a coaster.
I went on a broader search for blanks and ended up buying Plextor PX 708A and now I burn good dvd movies on either +R or -R. And now at 4X. Nice.
I'm wondering if the Sony is going south, or possibly if it was damaged when I tried to burn on 4X DVD's before I realized the firmware had to be upgraded.
It still burns but the last burn was a disk with video drop out--looks like pixels that are blank.
This is just a comment on my recent experiences and pleasure at once again being able to reliably burn dvd's.
