Dvd question!!!?

DVD-R question?

  • I have a question about DVD/R-'s. My driver says "DVD/CD-RW" does that mean it will only burn RW and not R's? and also will it only burn - (negative) not + (plus) ones? Also, my portable DVD player says it can play DVD+R and DVD+RW, I have DVD-R so I cant play them on my dvd player, can I? I suspect it only plays + DVDs.

  • Answer:

    1st question: Any player that will do RW (read and write or rewritable) will also do R (or WORM, write once read many). 2rd question: If your equipment is at all modern it will do both - (dash) and + (plus) format DVDs. 3rd question: almost all modern players will play both - and + DVDs often expressed as -+DVD or +-DVD or -/+DVD or +/-DVD. They all mean the same thing. However, most DVD players except the ones in computers need to have the DVDs properly authored with a burning program such as Nero or Roxio to put the files into a format compatable with the DVD standard.
