zoogderrick2 Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 i have the samsung, and no they do not read all types of media, yes they do read CD-R/RWs and DVD-Rs, but they have a really hard time reading DVD+Rs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 thats the funny thing, what region are you in? Ive read that the samsung's compatibility is always best, but its compatibility differs depending on the region you bought it in Ive tested DVD-/+R DVD+/-RW CDR and CDRW in my samsung and they all worked perfectly, and im using a 100% unmodded xbox The brands of CDRs ive tested areVerbatimMemorexImationTDK CDRWsVerbatimMemorexImationTDKFujiFilm DVD-RMemorexImationTDK DVD-RWTDKK-HypermediaLead Data DVD+RMemorexTDKHP DVD+RWHPSonyTDK And they all worked perfectly, even when fast fowarding at 2X in a DVD movie it still remained smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orochi Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I have a Thompson drive and the only cd-rw it reads for me is Fuji Film, but later i bought more Fuji Film cd-rw and it did not work with music, only with games! My Phillips has trouble with fuji dvd-r but not cd-rw, but reads almost everything else that is cd-r/rw and dvd-r. I have not used dvd-rw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I got a thompson. it reads every dvd-r I throw at it. no cd-r at all but memorex cd-rw works well. I don't care anyways cuz if it is small enough to fit on a cd-rw then I just ftp it to my hdd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N3oGhost Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I have a Thomson in mine. Reads TDK cd-rw and DVD-R/+Rs have worked pretty well. Although they say Samsung is the best/least picky of the three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
