Blu-ray Disc is the next-generation optical disc format that was developed to enable recording and playback of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing large amounts of data. A single-layer Blu-ray Disc can hold 25GB, which can be used to record over 2 hours of HDTV. Blu-ray uses a blue-violet laser to read and write data while current optical disc technologies such as DVD use a red laser. The shorter wavelengths of the Blu-ray technology make it possible to record more data on the same space. These discs are safeguarded by Verbatim's super hard coat which protects against everyday wear and tear. With the rapid growth of HDTV, Blu-ray will meet the consumer demand for recording HD programming and is expected to replace VCRs and DVD recorders over the coming years.
Using an LG bh08ls20 x8 blue ray burner, all I am getting is media errors and coasters. This is using firmware 2.0 which I beleive is the latest. This is using Nero 9.4.26.0.
This doesnt mean the media is bad but it doesnt seem to work with my burner (it could be a bad burner).
I ordered Mirror 4x White Printable 25GB Blu-Ray 10 Tub 1st two my burner would not recognise. The next two seemed to work but on play back started to break up, data was corrupt. Have used Verbatim BD-R and BD-RE disks with 100% no problems. For normal DVD's I always used genuine Taiyo Yuden 100% no problems.
Burner is a LG GGW-H20L latest firmware Software Imageburn
