Review: Excellent media quality - Quick Summary: Burns at 2.4x or 4x on Plextor 716A burner; Verbatim DVD+R DL burned with the Plextor 716A is PLAYABLE in EVERY DVD Player (at least 20 and counting) I have tried!!! Awesome. Full article: I recently used the Verbatim DVD+R DL media to back up a couple of my most popular DVD's. The original was 8.1GB in size and contained about 50 music videos. I couldn't get it to squeeze down to fit on a single layer disc. Verbatim DVD+R DL to the rescue! Using my new Plextor PX-716A burner (an excellent DVD Burner!), I used the included PlexTools program to make a copy of my DVD. Note, the original DVD is not protected in any way. I burned the DVD+R DL at 4x speed (approx. 28 min. to burn). There is a selection in the Plextor's software to "overwrite" the book type of the DVD+R DL so that it looks like a pressed dual-layer DVD to settop DVD players (to avoid a confusing older DVD players). I used this setting (it is by default) to burn the DVD. When it comes to DVD burning, there is no better test than the compatiblilty and quality test of the burned disc. The test is simple, put the burned DVD in as many players as you can and see how many can and cannot read it. Well, I have to say that I have tested this DVD+R DL in over 20 DVD players so far, and ALL have played it with NO COMPATIBILITY issues whatsoever. This finding is as good as or better than all DVD+R and DVD-R (single layer) I have ever used. After having read all the reviews on the web about how incompatible burned DVD+R DL discs are, I have to say, the Plextor 716A and Verbatim DVD+R DL combination blows everything else away. Yes, the discs are kinda expensive, but if you have valuable or irreplaceable DVDs to back up, they will work for you. As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. Just a couple quick notes: 1. To ensure compatibility among all DVD-Players, be sure you set your recording software to finalize all DVD+/-R's with the DVD-Rom booktype. If you do not, older DVD players may have trouble recognizing the DVD's. The Plextor drives have a setting (via Plextools) that will allow you to force them to always finalize with the DVD-Rom booktype! 2. I have burned about 200 of these Verbatim DVD+R DL discs successfully and have used no other brand. I refuse to even try another brand. There have been only 2 out of all of them I had problems with. First one I put an adhesive label on, and the label warped the DVD. When I tried to "flatten" it, the DVD cracked center-to-edge and I had to toss it. Second disc had a few read errors on it near the layer switch. The bonding on that disc appeared to be a bit weak near the center, as some of the dye was inconsistent there. Go figure as to why the problem was at the layer break at the outer edge of the DVD. Review: Recommended! - When it comes to writable media, one has to keep in mind that there will be some sort of failure rate. With that said, I can definitely recommend this product for being as good (if not better) than other DL DVDs on the market. This is maybe the 4th or 5th time I have purchased these Verbatim dual layer DVDs - they are the kind of thing that most people will never need, but are indispensable when you do! I use DL DVDs for backing up operating system discs - though mostly these just sit in a spindle on a shelf once they have been written to, they are needed every now and then and I am happy to say they perform admirably! As I mentioned already, some failure rate is to be expected, and out of the 30 or so that I have used, two failed while being burned. Now, whether this is the direct fault of the Verbatim DLs, or something to do with my DVD burner, I simply cannot say. Still, a 6.6% failure rate is not terrible, and most people will probably not encounter any issues simply because these are not exactly an every day item for many. Some general bullet points: - These are compatible with both PC and Mac burners/readers. - They work very well to boot and install an operating system (tested with OSX 10.5-10.8) - They will ONLY work in Dual-Layer capable DVD players for DVD playback As a side note, if you are using these DVDs (or any for that matter) for critical operations (backing up files, Operating systems etc.), I highly recommend buying the DVDs in individual jewel cases. There have been several articles (PC Mag I believe) about how DVDs in spindles have a higher rate of failure due to the nature of that method of storage. Once I dig up the link I'll put it in the comments. My only wish in regards to this product would be for a lightscribe version to exist - I have all but eliminated the need to sharpie my DVDs using a lightscribe labeling DVD drive, and these DL DVDs are the only ones that still require the old chicken scratch. Overall, highly recommended - much preferable to Sony or Memorex! ## Features - 3-pack of double-layer DVD+R DL discs in their own jewel cases - Supported by high speed Double Layer - 8.5 GB of storage capacity on a single-sided disc--no need to flip the disc - Record 4 hours of DVD quality television and video (16 hours of VHS quality) - Compatible with DVD+R DL drives from Sony, Philips, Lite On and other leading manufacturers ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002LEMWE | | Best Sellers Rank | #46 in Blank DVD+R Discs | | Brand | Verbatim | | Color | PURPLE | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (309) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00023942950141, 00666672734126 | | Item Weight | 0.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Verbatim | | Media Speed | 2x | | Memory Storage Capacity | 8.5 GB | | Recording Capacity | 16 Hours | | UPC | 080000246530 071030674769 666672734126 239429501410 641438707132 999992416084 163121449209 031112293295 510003596443 031111966855 031111406702 072202022814 012951705576 863363649657 023942950141 132018231005 777786018467 778888140568 174645875627 031112028767 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Verbatim - **Color:** PURPLE - **Item Weight:** 0.5 Pounds - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 8.5 GB - **Write Speed:** 2x ## Images ![Verbatim 8.5 GB 2.4X Double Layer Recordable Disc DVD+R DL, 3-Disc Jewel Cases 95014 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Shvk+dm+L.jpg) ![Verbatim 8.5 GB 2.4X Double Layer Recordable Disc DVD+R DL, 3-Disc Jewel Cases 95014 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71S9kSln+VL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size Name** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I guess i am asking can we label these through a printer instead of writing on the dvd with a sharpie®?** A: YES **Q: Do these burn in an Apple Superdrive? I have an iMac.** A: I do not know I just put them in my dvd player and they said recording error they would not record anything. I do not know about a Apple Superdrive or an I Mac. **Q: Could anyone please tell me if I can use these on the regular DVD burer that came with my computer--I use Roxio to burn my DVD's with. Thank you** A: I use these on my computer and they work perfectly. I use Roxio Easy Media Creator 10 and have had no problem. I do have to create an image on my computer and then burn the image to the blank DVD. I tried copying directly from one disc to the other and it didn't work well. However, by burning a copy to the computer and then computer to blank it does just fine. Hope this helps. **Q: Can i transfer vhs tape to dvd with this?** A: Although the DVD is smaller in size than a video tape... it IS possible to put the video tape onto the DVD. Simply set the DVD on a coaster, and place the video tape on top of it. Parts of the video tape will over-hang the DVD. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent media quality *by H***N on January 25, 2005* Quick Summary: Burns at 2.4x or 4x on Plextor 716A burner; Verbatim DVD+R DL burned with the Plextor 716A is PLAYABLE in EVERY DVD Player (at least 20 and counting) I have tried!!!
