I always aim for the highest compatibility possible. For instance, I only -R media. "-R media" tends to be more compatible with stand-alone DVD players but with bitsetting (to DVD-ROM), +R media can be more compatible, even the most compatible. As far as the quality of the burn goes, I haven't seen many burns that are better than RICOHJPNR01 DVD+R's burned with my Liteon 812s@832s; which is why I stick with +R; i.e. because the famous RICOHJPNR01's are +R media and with bitsetting to DVD-ROM (the DVD player will "see" the media as a DVD-ROM, rather than a +R); they tend to be the most compatible. Of course, bitsetting to DVD-ROM only works with +R media; -R media will always be "seen" as -R media by the player:



The burns I get with that media and burner combination are unbelievably good, far better than a typical factory pressed DVD in regard to the PI and PO errors. When I posted that scan on the Club CD Freaks forum some time ago before I knew how to interpret it, these were some of the comments:

General rule:
PI should not exceed 280 errors max.
PO should not exceed 4 errors max.

So your scan is a very nice one. More information on interpreting these scans can be found in our Media Forum and in Interpreting PI/PO error scans. Welcome to the forums MaximRecoil.
