I've had my Mitsumi burner for about a month and the Media(Maxwell DVD-R) I bought with it didn't work. Should of been more viigilant and looked at the back of the box... Oh, well, but I use Fuji and TDK DVD+Rs mostly. Is their a firmware update?, if so post it please.

I can't get 4X write speeds using Memorex DVD+R 4X discs. Can anyone recommend a good medium that will let me write at 4X using this burner?

I've bought this great burner in Germany for 139,- € and this was the right thing.

I've big problems mit Platinum and Verbatim DataLifePlus DVD+RW's
With Primeon DVD+RW i've no problems, it works great

In the case of DVD+R i haven't expected any problems. All Mediums i've tested works fine, also Verbatim and Platinum :-)

Hello DVD-burners,

This drive is just OK, there absolutely nothing wrong with it.
I got it for 140 EURO (in holland) at www.gistron.com

Using it I found out that MMORE dvd's and Verbatim are just fine.
Burned them without one failure. Using Nero burning rom 5.5.10.20.
Don't use "That's Write" DVD's these discs suck in a - and + burner.
Using a toshiba - burner and the mitsumi + burner.

I bought this drive for one reason - the price... It only cost me $229.99 Canadian! All other drives were around $400. I figured that even if the DVD writer was horrible I was still getting a DVD reader and decent CD burner (compared to my 2x that I never bother to upgrade) As it turns out the DVD writer works great! I've only have it for three weeks now but I haven't had any problems. Like what was previously said the bundled software isn't anything special but I'm not going to complain about free DVD writing software... Great buy!

I've been using the Mitsumi for about a month. Burned 50 or so DVDs with only a couple of coasters which were probably my fault. I've had good results with Verbatim and Fuji DVD+Rs. Only problem I've had is I can't get our Mintek 5830 to play anything from this drive - don't know if it's the media or burner. The disks play in every other DVD set top player I've tried.

I've also had good luck with the included software.

I've been using this drive for about 3 weeks. Only CD-ROM, DVD+RW and DVD+R media have been used, recording only to DVD so far. Speed is acceptable and has met my expectations. Verbatim DVD+RW (DataLifePlus) has worked without fail. Memorex DVD+RW media is spotty, I'm still doing some tests to see if I can get it to write consistently. Fujifilm DVD+R works as well.

The bundled SW wasn't really a big benefit. They include InterVideo's WinDVD Creator (the encoder is horrible and you won't use it for long), Nero Burning, and InterVideo's DVD player. But I bought it for the low price more than anything else so the SW bundle isn't a big deal.

I'm using DVD Complete with great success with this drive. I'd recommend both the program and the drive.
