Default Strange Error Behavior LiteON LTR5237S

Strange Error Behavior LiteON LTR5237S

I just upgraded to a new Liteon LTR5237S.
I tried burning a CDRW with one big backup file on it.
It burns and verifies ok, but I always run cdspeed99
to check for C2 errors. CDSPEED99 claims that the length
of the data is 58:50:01. The cdspeed99 cd quality check runs
and gives a read error at 58:49:60 and aborts. Is that even a legal
time signature? This is repeatable across different media.
If I add a file to the compilation and reburn same media,
the problem goes away. But comes back if I reburn without the
added file.
When I run cdspeed99 on another drive with this media, it does
not give a read error or any C2 errors.
Nero cdspeed that came with the drive shows 35280 errors at
the end of the file, but there's no time signature shown.
The program does not abort.

I flashed the firmware to VQS0C. No change.


File size reported by windows is 541,839,964, 541,851,648 bytes used.
Nero 5.5.10.13
Windows 98SE.

Should I be worried about this?
