Will this system potentially damage colored albums or picture discs?

Not that I know of. I don't why it would hurt color vinyl or picture discs. That being said, I have not cleaned either in my spin clean - although I wouldn't hesitate using it on either.

I've washed several picture disks and I haven't seen any damage, but I can't guarantee that continuous washing over the years won't begin to degrade your picture disks.

Hi. I don't think so. Colored Vinyl is still just Vinyl. Picture Discs are also Vinyl Covered cardboard. Whenever you clean Picture Discs, anyway, you have to be sure they aren't cracked, and that the Discs are completely sealed around the outer edge/rim. Otherwise the printed Picture inside can get wet. Hope this helps.

It works as well as with color negatives. What is really important is the negative condition, if is too old or has scratches

It should help as long as the minor surface "noise" that you are hearing is from static and/or dust/debris build-up on the surface of your album.

We have never had any issue with a disk at all, if one of the bunch didn't work then I would say yes. Could happen, but if all don't play, you hve a problem with the blu Ray playing reg disk,

Hi, no, it will not copy these type of discs you are mentioning as it will have a copy protection added on the disc.

NO do not use it in blu-ray discs. They have a special coating that it will damage. Only use on CDs and DVDs.

No. For at least two reasons. #1) Records and CD's are made from different materials. The Maxell kit is essentially acrylic car wax, made specifically for the type of plastic CD's are made from. Vinyl LP's use a completely different kind of plastic. #2) Records and CD's store information differently. The CD repair kit doesn't bring back missing information, but it restores the surface just enough that the laser can read sufficient digital data to reconstruct the information it thinks should be there. An analog vinyl LP is a "dumb" system; the needle just plays what's in the groove - damage, dust, dirt, etc. It all looks the same to the needle, and it has no way of knowing what should be there. Sorry Amazon, there's really no need to buy expensive record cleaning solutions. A drop of mild dish-soap in a cup of distilled warm water, wiped gently with soft cloths on the LP (and vacuumed completely dry with a small shop vacuum - that's something you can buy from Amazon that) will help alot, but scratches can't be magically made to disappear by any means.

NO! It corrupts random files; I bought two and I would not recommend it at all! I would say go ahead and pay a little extra for something more reliable!

It depends on how damaged the disc is. You may or may not need to use the sanding pad first. The step that you will always need is the buffing step using the white solution. I disagree with the other response in that it is very messy. You will get a little bit of the white solution on your fingers, but it is easy to wipe off. The blue solution step is optional. I never use it. After the buffing step I just spray the disc with disc cleaner and wipe it off. It has restored a couple CDs and DVDs that would not play to perfect working order for me.

I had no problems with these CDs being burned I use Mac and windows, so to answer your question 100%.

Matthew, I use it only for a few limited features. I cannot comment on that feature. I use it to print on DVD & CD'r's exclusively. I think the answer is no though. Sorry!

I would think so. Although, if they are really old and fragile I would just use a flat bed scanner, it won't be quite as speedy, but they will ensure that no damage is done to your photographs. Not saying that Doxie damages any documents, but I would err on the side of caution.I use this scanner for old college notes and any ol' document, but for pictures, drawings and photographs I use my canon flatbed scanner.

You shouldn't put any labels directly on a CD/DVD. The disc will become unbalanced and will potentially be irretrievable if it spins out of the holder. Use a felt, permanent type marker.

I currently use water-based markers just to be safe. However, discs I've had for two decades that were written on with a sharpie show and they no sign of deterioration. I'm not saying it's impossible for something in the ink to penetrate the disc's coating and cause damage, but I suspect people are being paranoid, and their disc failures are likely due to something else.

When you copy JPEG files to the disc, does it rename the image files like in the older model?
