Re: PX-716SA growisofs won't write DVD
Well, I went out and bought the best Fuji media I could find according to the web. mediainfo scans them fine, look to be ok, but when I try to burn to them i get the error. So far the only disc to work is the RW media that the drive came with. my TDK -R and the Fuji +R and -R all get this error of showing as 0%. Upon Further research I've found individuals with the PX-716A say that these two Fuji media (Taiyo Yuden make) work *perfectly* with this drive. In fact, one of the makes (the YUDEN000/T02) is the media SOLD BY PLEXTOR! I've also read many people with the A version say they haven't had any problem with even cheaper media. I'm really beginning to think that the problem is not with the media or the drive but with the software somewhere. I've attached the mediainfo I took for both media from my two DVDR drives.

No, because the drive hardware needs to be tuned by the firmware to produce correct results. But looking at the output, you also support 6x writing in your drive. I would try writing this media at 6x, since it's a supported speed. That's about the upper end of how fast you write a CD at 48x, as a data point. It may be that the firmware indicates it can operate at 8x, but can't, at least with this media.
