It's time for a new BD burner - not player. I have an ASUS internal Optical that's having a lot of challenges. Did the disc cleaning, and all..that but it's starting to have more problems with burning DL and ejecting the tray. I use the same media, and that hasn't changed. So I think it's time for something new. I trust you all here except for Lathe. Ha! Nahh... Ha. Any recommendations? I use MKVs on HD and BDs at times, but girlfriend still (and so do I) loves the menus and her older BD player doesn't support USB. Which is cool with us.

The LG reviews through Amazon are....Okay. I'll check Pioneer. Does your Pioneer support CD ripping and checking? My ASUS never did that, but I do use a Sony drive for that which functions great for it. But would be a great bonus.

Amiga, I have a Pioneer BD-R-209D that I've had more than a year. Zero coasters. Though it's seen maybe 20 or 30 in that time.
I had O-K luck with LG. After about a hundred burns each on the two of them, they crapped out burns, but still read ok. But I currently only trust the Pioneer to burn. Ugh... off to work. Good luck Edited: sentence structure.

Luck doesn't exist but I understand your meaning. Good to seeeee you again!
I'm very much considering a Pioneer next. Zero coasters, but has seen 20 or 30 in that time?? The last seems to contradict the previous. Is that what you meant? I'm noting LG Burners aren't....great quality, hmm.. But then many of them are "cheaper" drives. I'm going to go mid-range this time. 100 to 150$ or so, I think.

My LG may be fine, but I see a slight hiccup, and I don't like trusting them anymore. No contradiction, but I see that my sentence structure could have made that easier to interpret. I try to check-in every now and again

I have a LG BD burner in my tower, and a LG slim drive in an external case for my laptop. Both of those drives have been outstanding performers.
I've been using Ritek 4x inkjet printable BD-Rs for a long time in those drives with no coasters and excellent longevity. I burn them at 4x. Writing software is exclusively ImgBurn. For BD-RE: I have a handful of Fujifilm BD-REs I have been using for years in my LG burner reliably. I also picked up a cakebox of Ritek BD-REs for cheap a while ago. They work ok, but tend to get fussy in my burner when pushing them to their limits (data size wise). Last edited by Rich86; 3rd November 2018 at 21:29. |

[21:32:59]PHASE TWO - Rebuild Started - [21:32:59] Building ALTERNATE OUTPUT Structure - [21:32:59] Converting 1 subtitles to DVD format. - [21:33:46] Starting MPLEX. - ERROR in attempt to mux (MPLEX) [21:35:37] - Failed to REBUILD Then I used 50.25 to make a 50gb movie only BD from the source files including the engish audio and 1 subtitle. That ran fine and the resulting files play fine. I tried making a DVD from the resulting BD movie folder that BDRB had created and it failed in the same manner/place described above. Then I tried it again with no subtitles included . . still failed the same way. Then I tried this one in multiAVCHD and it finished, but there is a huge out of sync between video and audio in the resulting DVD video. It looks like the video jumps frames in the beginning, maybe throwing off the A/V sync. The source BD files ripped from my disc and created by BDRB 50.25 play fine. Update: Making a DVD from the "Skyscraper" BD - how I got it to work. This title has an english Dolby Atmos track and no lossy english audio tracks other than commentaries. I ripped the BD to hard disc (DVDFab64). I then created a movie only BD50 folder/files using BDRB and forcing BDRB to convert the audio to lossy Dolby Digital by unchecking everything under "Audio Encoding Options" in Setup. Then I used BDRB to create a DVD from those BD folder/files successfully. It appears the process to create a DVD from a BD in BDRB cannot handle the lossless audio tracks in some titles?

Not needed, is the bat file command doesn't run as administrator, run BDRB executable as an administrator as specified in the setup instructions.
That's what I needed to do on win 10, there's ZERO need to change the path. Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 6P met Tapatalk |

So my advice is this: Don't think, just buy a Pioneer |

As for BD's..I have been reading about riplock..that's new to me. I guess I'm not well enough in the Know now these days. There's a slowing that happens when ripping is noticed with some drives. Looks like the Pioneers don't have it. Quote:
I took some Sony BD-RE's I've burned to someone I know who has the same LG player and they read pretty well. HMM!! I'm going to disassemble my LG player and clean the lens better than the CD cleaner does and check if that improves things. I'll keep the Digistor and Ritek's in mind. Appreciate the reply. Quote:
Great Tagline. Ha! Girlfriend said, "You have a B-day anniversary coming...so choose what you want to do." - Something I'm normally not at all interested in celebrating anymore; prefer every day being special rather than 1 or a couple through the year. But, she knows how to surprise and that can be very fun. Appreciate the replies, all.

I'm starting to think my ASUS BD Burner has had problems for a while with media. When I burn to BD-RE (SL/DL) sometimes different video parts, not only the movie, have pauses in them. Such as an error of some kind is encountered. The video can seem to be paused while the Optical Player is attempting to get the data. Once it does, there's a short burst to get back into sync and then play resumes as normal. A while ago I thought maybe it's BD-RB not rebuilding correctly for some discs. But others would have reported that, for sure. So, it's either the media or the drive or both.
Opened my Player and cleaned the lens and it's accepting discs again, BD-REs and original but some of those video glitches remain with BD-RE, and I wondered if any of you encountered any of that from now to a long, long time ago? It's burner related and media, since JD also commented not any problems with his Pioneer. I'm going to locate one of the Pioneers mentioned and it should solve it all...and I'll keep my BD-RE for when I get it and check it. But for wonderment, I pose that question.

Amiga, I recall having problems with a Maxell DVD+RW. If I didn't do a complete erasure of the disc, there were problems. Verbatim never gave me the problem. But perhaps it was the burner that didn't like the media. I have a BD-RE from Sony that worked once, and never again. I think whatever data was burned to it, caused problems for acknowledgement of the disc from any reader at the time. I'm not sure if I threw it away, or it's simply stored.
Finicky things, media/burners lol

Oops.. I've been using Verbatim BD-RE DL for a while now with my LG BD Player, and ASUS BD Burner.. Switch over to Pioneer should solve it all, going by the replies here and reviews at Amazon. I'll check my not so favorite Store BestBuy to see about getting it locally. A lot do great Stores have gone bye, bye since Amazon got huge.
Yeah, I've been checking the reformat idea also since yesterday and before. Not any improvements. Sad Face. LOL.
