We start our DVD writing quality measurements with DVD-R media. A variety of different MIDs were selected and burned at the maximum allowed speed. In each of the following pages, you will find detailed information about each disc, the burning and reading procedure as well as the related signal measurements that construct the overall quality picture for each disc.

The test reported acceptable PISum8 error rate and no uncorrectable errors (POF). Jitter was also increased after the 40mm radius of the disc and until the end of the data area. Generally, a good burn here with the CMC MAG AMD DVD-R disc at 16x.
