hey i was wondering why these discs arnt working when i try to burn them with decrypter it just sits there and says focus servo error then when i put in a memorex dvd+r 8x it works but dont play on my home player the disc that says focus servo error is maxell dvd-r 4.7gb 2hrs yellow top is it because my burnner will only recognize dvd+r or is it somthing to do with the disc. I was wondering, how do i tell the speed of my burrner like 2x,4x,8x etc... and maybe a recomendation of what discs to use before i go waste alot of money

What do I do if I get a 'Focus servo failure' message?

The "Focus servo failure" message is a hardware error. It can be caused by the following:

Poor media - Try more than one brand of CD-R media to rule this out as cause.
Poor power - The power to your recorder could be fluctuating. If you have an internal recorder, try a different power connector and make sure it's not being shared by any other devices. If you have an external recorder, if possible, remove it from the external chassis and connect it to your system as an internal recorder. If this resolves your issue, you need to replace or repair the power source in your external chassis.
Optical head is dirty, needs alignment, or recorders circuit board has an open coil - please contact your recorder manufacturer to service your unit.

You should have posted this in the thread you already started.
Not really clear what your asking? Your standalone may not recognize both formats (plus R,dash R). The speed of your burn can be found by searching online for the model number.

Or try this link. Put a DVD in you burner and run it.
