If you use that with structural protection, it will not remove the structural protection, as far as I recall, but instead copy it.When all else fails that sometimes works. It has for me before.
This could be normal, as Pioneer reads the discs slightly differently from other brands, to what I recall from the extended tests I did.The interesting thing is the Pioneer log is 1 KB larger than the ASUS one. Don't know if that means anything.
The log files also show that there is a structural protection.
