Dual Layer Media for Pioneer DVR-111DBK writer

[KingLouie3]

Hi,

I bought this dvd writer this week and very have been impressed by how quiet this drive is. However, I bought some Aone DVD+DL 8x media to copy large data files but the drive and Nero detects the media at 2.4x?? I have updated the firmware to the latest version. And still it reads the media at 2.4x.

Can anyone who uses this drive pass on what brand of media they are using to get 8x writing speeds?

Cheers!!!

I had a similar problem with my philips dual layer dvdrw, it wouldnt detect the correct speeds.

I search the entire net for firmware updates but nothing newer than what i had, so i contacted philips and they gave me a program that would flash the drive and install new drivers and perfecto works now.
You could try that?

Did the nero come with the drive? Cause ive seen nero sold with certain drives and when you install a new drive it doenst allow the maximum right.
