hi all
back from my holliday and since I was asked for some weeds I decided to buy some decent CD's. So it became the TDK's. however the writer indicates that the medium is not ok ? Anyone an idea how this comes. Never had a problem like this before.
thanks
stefan

Hmmm, they've always worked ok for me in the past, but I've been using Sony recently

Could be a bad batch of discs possibly? Check if there's a firmware upgrade for your writer...some brands work better with specific drives (altho this usually applies more to DVD's than CD's), a firmware upgrade could fix this.
Never had a problem either. The whole CD burning thing is so mature by now that it's unlikely to be a compatibility glitch.
What brand is the writer?

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

tried some more on this bloody thing. I succeeded in making a photo cd with the tdk's so it burns ok. Just doesn't want to succed in copy an audio cd or dvd. strange thing.

Yeah, Dan has a good point there. Also, what program do you use and maybe there is something wrong with the wav files? Have you tried using EAC?

Surprisingly enough, I had probs with TDK once, too.
Not a single one of the buggers wanted to accept my WAV files.
When checking in the store, the guy told me I was not the only one, so he sent the whole bunch back to TDK. Now he doesn't sell TDK anymore.
What I do now, is: go to Colruyt or Carrefour (Belgium only I guess?), buy a spindle of 50 from a known brand (Sony in my case) and burn away.
Never had any probs with them whatsoever.
Oh, and for audio: refrain from using NERO. I had more problems with the program than anything else.
I'm talking rather semi-pro audio here, so a simple copy will do... but I'm now using WaveLab from Steinberg for my audio and it works a lot!!!! better
Plus it comes with mastering tools, EQ, and various restoration tools. It is quite expensive, but there are *cough* other ways. Then again, I sponsored Steinberg a week or two ago, so they can't complain...
IZ.
