Summary
After having compared three test disc results measured with CATS and with PX-712A, we are happy that finally end users can do accurate measurements, and close to what proffesionals are using.
From the first place we didn't expect any miracles, remember PX-712A costs only few hundred Euros when CATS costs thousands.
For sure, we would like to have other reading speeds options than the default 2X CLV, since if you decide to do PISum8/Sum1 and Beta/Jitter scans, for one disc you must spend around 1:15hours.
If only PlexTools could report PISum8/Sum1 and Beta/Jitter with one pass would be great
« Résumé :
Après avoir comparé les résultats obtenus avec 3 DVD de test mesurés avec la machine AudioDev CATS puis le graveur Plextor PX-712, nous sommes heureux de constater que les utilisateurs finaux ont enfin la possibilité d’effectuer des mesures précises et proches de celles données par les machines utilisées par les professionnels.
Au début nous n’attendions aucun miracle considérant qu’un PX-712 coûte une centaine d’€ et la machine CATS SA300 quelques milliers.
Bien sûr nous voudrions pouvoir disposer d’autres options que la vitesse de lecture par défaut de 2x en mode CLV (vitesse linéaire constante) vu que si vous décidez d’effectuer un scan PISum8/Sum1 et un test Beta/Jitter pour un DVD cela vous prendra environ 1 heure et quart.
Si Plextools pouvait reporter le PISum8/Sum1 et le Beta/Jitter en une seule passe ce serait déjà bien »
NEC and Pioneer drives: These drives are discouraged from being used as testing units.
I can't think of any software that should be avoided.
For LiteON's, K-Probe, DVDInfoPro, and Nero CD/DVD Speed are good
For BenQ's DVDInfoPro, and Nero CD/DVD Speed are good
For Plextor's PXScan is good, and DVDInfoPro also works, but it doesn't report Beta scores yet.
LiteON's: 4x CLV is recommended, 8x CAV would be "ok" but discouraged
4x is pretty much the standard most of the time, so I recommend 4x to keep it more uniform. 8x is pretty much the other option.
BenQ's: 8x CAV is recommended, 4x CAV is "ok", CLV and P-CAV testing is discouraged.
8x CAV is pretty much the most common speed used, and could be argued as the BenQ standard.
Again, I'd like to keep it as uniform as possible. I tend to be against the use of P-CAV and CLV because BenQ drives were designed to be CAV testing units.
Only CD/DVD Speed offers these odd testing options, and I don't think we want to see everything get confused by having to see which of 6 or 7 different speeds/testing methods has been used. Also, I've seen some odd results on CDFreaks that concern me.
Plextor: 2x is encouraged, 5x is "ok", 8x and 12x is discouraged
2x and 5x tend to give fairly similar results, but once you move to 8x and 12x the results tend to get a little wild. Also, most people who bother to use Plextors for scanning, usually use 2x or 5x anyways.
Please note that the posted results are only valid for the specific tested Plextor drive. Using other drives, even another PX-716A, can produce totally different results. Be aware!

a lire franz99, j'ai tendance à penser que l'ensemble de ces tests sont inutiles car non reproductibles avec un même matériel.Please note that the posted results are only valid for the specific tested Plextor drive.

cxman a écrit:donc si je peux me permettre cette synthese, nous pourrions rassembler les résultats des differents testeurs du quarté:
graveur/firmware/vitesse/media
sachant qu'il ne nous faut qu'une variable à tester en même temps sur l'ensemble des 4 facteurs.

les lecteurs, que nous avons, ne sont de toute façon pas calibrés comme les scanners profesionnels
et qu'il y faut encore investiguer plus loin . . . .
Page 1: « From the above graphs, we can see that the error line trend follows the same pattern as the original CATS »
Page 2: « In this case, the graph is different to that of the CATS error line »
Page 3: « The trend line follows the CATS trend line. »
Page 4: « And lastly, a somewhat close trend line to the original CATS, but only for the PIF measurement. »
Page 1: « If you ignore the absolute values, which differ from software to software, the error trend lines are quite similar for both PI and PIF »
Page 2: « In the case of the PISum8, similar scans from the LiteOn burner and the CATS system in terms of trend lines »
Page 3: « The error trend lines are quite similar for the LiteOn and the SA300 for both PI and PIF »
Page 4: « As you can plainly see in the graphs above, the error trend line follows the same pattern as the CATS system scans, but value levels are different »
