So this is 8x-media, labeled as 4x?

[pepst]

Exactly. Probably because the quality is not good enough for 8x speed recording.

[Tester_1]

Would 4x be much better?

My Titanum 8x and Emtec 8x are MCC-fakes with MCC 004, but IIRC 8x also won´t lead to good quality

How is this disc still readable…?

How is this disc still readable…?

High reflectivity medium caused by low level or lack of metal chelates in the dye. Few manufacturers have been able to do it without causing accelerated degradation… this one’s no exception.

Same happens with CD-Rs, a similar high error rate can cause playback issues with P-Cyanine discs but Cyanine disc plays fine on an old standalone player. Some newer players will adjust the laser intensity when seeing a CD-RW or P-Cyanine to counter that, I remember back in the day they had stickers advertising “Phthalocyanine and CD-RW compatible” on some players.
