Just watched Star Wars with my father and my brother. They were both amazed at how well it was put together. I am too. But I need a way to print custom stickers for the DVD, anybody know how?
Thanks in advanced for any advice 😃
Honestly, I wouldn’t use labels/stickers at all. They can upset the balance of the mechanism that spins the disc in your player, over time… their weight is not negligible and they can never be applied truly evenly.
The best bet is to print directly to disc, there are hundreds of options. I use an Epson Artisan 730 printer, and it’s reliably accurate within 1/2 of a mm when printing directly to a disc, so it’s always pretty much fucking spot on all the time. I’ve had mine for a few years, never has a single problem with it. The Epson has an actual disc tray, and software for specifying the label size. So, it’s just a matter of pressing a button on the front of the printer, putting the disc in the tray, and pressing “print”. That’s just for the disc art, when it comes to printing out actual sleeve inserts it can also print dual sided, so that’s how I printed and interior and exterior to the BD cover. The pics I took are blurry for whatever reason, but in actuality they’re razor sharp.
I only use waterproof/smart guard/ liquidproof/ blah blah blah discs because I like the retail finish and durability - and I like the fact that it’s finger-proof, smudge-proof, etc. For single layer 25gb discs (like the doc disc above) I use Falcon Pro SmartGuards - tech licensed from TDK and absolute top of the line quality. For dual 50gb discs, when it comes to waterproof finishes, unfortunately, the options are limited. I use PlexDisc. Rock solid burn reliability and the disc finish rivals the Falcons but they source their raw media/discs from Ritek (which has serious issues with media longevity.) Still, for right now, they’re the only player in the game for dual 50gb water/smudge/finger/proof BD’s.
I’ve also had a few right now, so I realize I’m rambling and taking up real estate I have no right to.
