Didn't work on my player. DVD+R doesnt seem to be the best format.

Just wanted to counter the previous rating of '2' by pointing out it's DVD+RW that are designed to work with existing players by following existing video DVD specs, like physical reflectivity and burning the bits just-so (lossless linking for forward references), to look exactly like the old DVD players expect. It's the DVD-RW/R media that requires a newer player built to read them.

See list of DVD+RW compatability at:

I have had my drive now for 2 weeks and I love it. I only wish it would read/write DVD-R. Anyone know if the DVD+R's or on the market?
Check out this site www.dup-dvd.com it copies DVD's to VCD's with a ccouple of clicks. I have the unlock key if interested..
