i thought it was pretty obvious... anyway, this is what we found...
Burner = internal Pioneer A107 ($140 from Umart)
Software = Toast v6 (titanium) - most popular burning software on Macintosh
Workstation = G4 running v10.3 OS X
Media #1 = Strathfield Audio DVD writables (under 99c)
plays on all cheap (e.g. non sony) domestic DVD players without error. Sony DVD player started ot have errors after first use. Continues to play on cheapest DVD player
Media #2 - Verbatim
plays on all cheap domestic DVD players without error. Reports same kinds of errors (from scratches) on all players - but only after many months of (ab)use.
conclusions:
- quality of media is key so you get what you pay for
- the cheapest burner and player dont care what media they are fed.
- mutliple burn sessions are recipe for drink coasters - dont bother unless you want to waste all your DVDR media
