Default How to use Nero to check quality of copied DVD?


From Nero help:
"ScanDisc is a function which will show you the quality of a disc.
The test consists of two parts, the File Test which simply reads all
files on the disc and reports all errors. This test can also be used
for benchmarking to give you an idea on how well the drive performs
with for example software installing.
The Surface Scan checks the quality of each sector and shows the
results in a graph".

However, if I go to Nero CD-DVD Speed / ScanDisc it seems that I can
only test with Surface Scan. Nowhere can I find a File Test. This test
is also necessary for checking the quality of a copied DVD, right??

What is my best approach to confirm quality of a DVD copy with Nero?
I have:
- Nero 6.6.1.4
- Nero CD-DVD Speed 4.11

I have read somewhere that DvdinfoPro could do the job. But I would
like to avoid installing another program if I can do what I need
within Nero.

Tks.

That function only works with a few devices, mainly BenQ and Plextor
DVD writers. What is your model of DVD writer?

I have two DVD writers:
- LG GSA-4081B (some three years old)
- LG GSA-H20L (about four months old)
