I've found problems with Memorex blanks on several occasions, in 2 different recorders; the problem is that the disc 'hangs' up and won't record or play past a certain point. Sometimes it will record all the way thru, but on playback it stops at a certain point and the timing display flashes

1999-12-27 Thread Jim Resinger
It has been my experience that dropouts are usually a *player* problem and not a *disc* problem. (This is not to say that all discs will be problem-free.) My Sharp MD-X5 developed a distaste for some Maxell discs a while back, yet the same discs played and recorded just fine in other machines.

Hey I'm relatively new to the world of MD, having just bought an R90 and 30 sony "prism" series discs (10MDW-74HP). To date, I have recorded on 10 of these discs, and so far two of them have started to give brief dropouts at certain points on the disc. These were all virgin recordings done on
