Unfortunately, there are many factors that can affect
the CD-R's ability to record.
Many of these factors are beyond our control; some of the most common are as
follows:
1. Compatibility with writer and/or firmware in the writer.
There are numerous writers on the market. The intensity of the laser, the recording
speed and "firmware" configuration of the writer (which looks at things
such as width between the "pits & lans", reflectivity, etc.),
can all affect the recording capability. Software and firmware are the reason
many writers do not recognize a CD/DVD. We recommend that you contact your writer
manufacturer; you may need to download a later version of software.
2. Storage conditions.
The recording layer is extremely sensitive to sunlight and heat. If the CD has
been subjected to adverse conditions during shipping, the dye may have been
adversely affected. This will negatively impact the CD-R's ability to record
properly.
3. Dust on laser lens.
This can accumulate over time and cause the laser power to change, thus affecting
the recordability. The same is true for the player.
4. Home Digital Audio Recorders.
Home Digital Audio Recorders will recognize CD-Rs ONLY made specifically for
recording on such equipment. As such, a CD-R specifically marked for use with
home Digital Audio recorders may only be used. Standard CD-Rs made for recording
on computers will not work. Additionally, a home recorded music CD-R will never
be as "forgiving" as an original. As such, some CD players may not
recognize these home recorded CD-Rs, additionally, car stereos may have difficulty
recognizing the entire content if these home recorded CD-Rs, or may not recognize
them at all. This is especially true of older players. This is not a quality
issue, and not a function of the media, it is a function of the laser and firmware
incorporated in the player.
5. Missing sectors at the outer 25% of the
CD-R. This is possible if the dye is not spread
evenly. This would be classified as a quality issue, but does happen on rare
instances.
