I ran all the tests in Plextools Pro.

Test ran at slowest drive speed (so it said :-)

Results here (when tested on my DVD-recorder, no PIFs at all):

I don't understand all the tests, so if you would explain :-)

It's brand new. But since all errors are correctable in the tests, BUT
there are a large amount of error at 16x at the end of the disk, the
problem might be that this cheap DVD-player has to poor error
correction? Wouldn't that together with the test explain everything?
