Hello everybody.

Since purchasing DVD writer ( 2 month ago ) I have a problem with CD-RW media. CD-RW disks became not readable after some time, around couple of weeks. Media is known to be good ( I am using it for more than half a year). It is too early to talk about exceeding max number of burnings per disk( around 10 times only ). These CD's were always good when burned on my old GOOD CD writer ( LiteON 52x). Don't have any problems ( so far ) with other types of media, all are good:CD-R, DVD+RW, DVD+R.

Any ideas?
DVD writer is Lite-ON 812 ( firmware update didn't help ).
SW:Suse9.1, K3b ( don't have a chance to test in WXP).

Best regards,

olegnick.

What is the speed rating of the CDRW media and what speed are they being burned at by your DVD burner? If they are being burned above rated speed, clock it back!
