I got a Philips DVD RW DVD8631 and Memorex 8x DVD+R DL Discs. I tried almost all the program that I have, including Nero 8, ImgBurn 2.4.1 and PowerISO 3.6 and doesn't burn. Keep giving errors. I set to the lowest copy rate.

Anyone knows what I did wrong?

Most likely poor media. Best and only media for dl +R recording is Verbatim and Ritek 2.4x .

Does that burner work for single layer disks though ?, as the DVD8631 has a horror of a reputation - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/179003

After reading that thread and a couple of outside reviews...here's the next suggestion you may want to consider.

Hi, does it gives any specific kind of error when you try to burn this discs?

It may be possible that it is poor media, but in the past I have used this media with a LITEON burner and it have given me good results, that is zero coasters and no errors on the discs. About Ritek 2.4x I have seen that some of the Memorex are Ritek too, but to make sure why dont you dont download DVD Identifier and check what media ID are the discs you are using.

Still that are many other factos that may interefere with your ability to sucefully burn DL's disc, lets say software conflicts, missconfigurations, its DMA enabled?

Although lamentably sometimes some media-burner combinations simply dont work, and as far as I know that Phllips DVD RW dont have a really godd reputation, but lets hope that is not your case.
