DVD-R - Disc Speed - Help

This may seem a basic question but my Panny E55 (In the brochure) says to use dvd-r disc speed 1- 4x.
I have used some datawrite classic 8 x dvd-r and verbatim 8x without any problems.
On reading the box for some other fuji and maxell discs I have which are 4x its says that using the discs with the wrong speed may damage the driver.
Am I safe to use 8x?

RE: PanasonicDMRE55- DVDRAM problems

In response to Paull
It could be a case of watching the programme (by the way noticed on 3 to 4 seperate recordings of different types of programme) again and again and seeing a difference.
I copied The Shameless Christmas special and then edited out the commercials (for fun) and noticed some lip sync problems.
I copied some MTV videos and noticed the pixel breakup on certain videos after repeat play this was also evident on a copy of "Nighty Night" from BBC 3.
My first thoughts that the discs were getting progressively worse however I am not sure this is the case and after your comments is more likely the case that the "original signal "and therefore recording may not of been as perfect as first thought.
I am using Panasonic DVDRAM own brand (any advice on others as on a quick internet search Panny own brand at £19.99 for 10 seem a good bet) and recording at SP.

PanasonicDMRE55- DVDRAM problems

Without meaning to further the much discussed and emotive blank disc debate.
I have had a E55 for 3 days and recorded on the Panny Ram discs after a few plays (3-4) the pixels appear to be breaking up slightly during movement.
The recordings were made from RGB /Sky and appeared perfect on the first play.
Is this likely to be a "dodgy disk" problem or something more serious.
The discs are perfect and not scratched in any way and only been in and out of the machine 2 to 3 times.
Whilst writing what is the general view on the quality of dvd video playback is it as good for example as my old TOSHIBA 220.
Any help or comments would be appreciated before I speak to Sevenoaks Hi Fi
