Dvr-109 burning DVD-R DL

[g12345567]

Accidently purchased some Ritek DVD-R DL media so wanted to use them up.

The only drive I have with the ability to burn DVD-R DL media is a Pioneer dvr-109. Been burning dvd-r DL fine on this drive. But lately the last couple which were 7.6gb failed to burn at 75% mark. May be due to bad media but not sure as I have burned 7.63gb before this fine.

Also don't understand why Pioneer released this drive with the ability to burn DVD-R DL media. When the drive lacks the ability to read DVD-R DL media.

Burning the same move to DVD+R DL and it didn't fail.

Any thoughts on using this drive to burn DVD-R DL?

@ g12345567,

All Ritek Media especially Ritek DL Media has a rich well-documented history of poor manufacture quality. If you desire consistent quality error free results ALL Ritek Media should be avoided (not used).

…Any thoughts on using this drive to burn DVD-R DL?..

Suggest obtaining Verbatim DVD-R DL MKM01RD30 or MKM03RD30 Mitsubishi Kagaku Media if you desire obtaining consistent quality error free DVD-R DL results.
