I just purcahsed an External DVD Burner - Mad Dog 16X +- R +-RW for my lap top. With it I purchased box of DVD-R Value Discs. I was somewhat succesful in burning one of my DVD's. It works on my DVD Rom on my PC and one of the three DVD I have tested it on.

Anyone have any thoughts on my which direction I should start looking to have it consistently work:

Should I get abetter media and if so what?
Or is it a DVD problem that I can not get around?

Any help would be apprectiated.

Sam

I purchased the Verbatim DVD+R Recordable Digital Movie type. Will this work better than the Value Disc -R disc I purchase earlier or should I look at buying a Verbatim DVD -R Disc. Will that work better than the +R that I have. I have yet to open the package.

depends on what version ps2 you have. If you have a v1-3, +r wont work.

Update:

I tried the +R disc and it wrote OK, but did not read on my PC DVD or any of the DVD'd.

So it does look as though -r FOR my PC and DVD is a must.

By the way, can you educate me on what you mean by "
version ps2 and v1-3"

Thanks

there many versions of the playstation 2. the first ones made are v1, and the latest ones made are v11. The older versions, 1-3, won't read +r discs.

Here is an update:
I purcahsed some Verbatim DVR-R Super AZO disks.

I burnt and disk and had the same success with the Value Disc DVD -R I had orginally tried.

I am almost thinking that the DVD's themslef may be the issue.

I have three:
Yamaha - Disc does not work
RCA DRC 220 - Disc does not work
Cyberhome - works (most recent works).

The other items is that when the DVD encrytor takes over, I receive several "semaphone time period has expired errors" I just retry many times and it eventually takes.

One other Item I did not mention earlier, although the DVD burner is a USB 2.0, my PC connection is a 1.1.

Any help would be appreciated.

Frustrated Sam

Thats why your getting the semaphone time period has expired errors, and might be your problem with burning. You can buy a usb2.0 card for $10-20 at the store (probably $5 on pricewatch.com), which i highly suggest.
