Wii and DRE.

Craigsblackie · 02-09-2007, 12:55 PM

I've been receiving DREs now and I believe others have too. They only seem to occur during idle.

I'm using Imgburn, Pioneer 110d and Riteks. Burned at 4x.

What are your experiences, anyone spotted a pot that could be adjusted?

I've found that you can eject and reinsert the disc with many backups and continue to play ok.

Typically Riteks are known to be good quality discs, their dye highly regarded and were a god send on GC. I may have to try a Verbatim disc however, as I agree, the brand is perfect on the 360.

Quite a few verbs are actually ritek manufactured. Riteks are good quality disks.

ritek arent as good as you think infact ritek are known to have dodgy batches which could render more then half of your set useless.

If you want Quality burns that you have no DRE's with use Verbatim Media with a MediaID that starts with MCC XXXXXX or Taiyo Yuden media with a MediaID that starts with YUDENXXXXXX

If you use good media and burn at 4x all your burns will work great with no dreaded DRE

For Wii games, I get DRE's when using Fujifilm DVD-R's burnt at 16x.. I get no DREs when using TDK DVD-R's burnt at 16x. When I use the fujifilm DVD-Rs for GC games i get no DREs.

Some guy on Wiinewz site says laying his Wii flat solved his DRE issues.
