You could try a dvd+rw but I doubt you will have any problems. Once you set the lite-on booktype utility to booktype dvd+r media to dvd-rom it will autmatically set them to dvd-rom unless you change it back. You can use dvd identifier to verify that they are booktyped dvd-rom after the burn. You might want to also download kprobe (free) from that same link I gave you earlier to scan your discs. It only works with liteys and rebadged liteys. I use it for all my scans.

Mort--
I was just thinking--do I have to download all the firmware since unit was made or just the most recent?

Just a comment on lite on in general....next to plextor which i feel is the best... lite on is a very close second. I always buy lite on and i have 2 lite on burners and 2 lite on 16x dvd drives. They are great products that do not have any rip guard protections so you can rip dvd's with ease. They have very low break down rates and work incredibly well. I would not buy anything else

Only the most rescent if it doesn't already have it. Look here. http://www.liteonit.com/ODD/English/e_downloads/e_firmware_dvd%20... Latest for 1673 is JSOB.

I agree with nohelpme, you will love it for ripping too.

Well I think its important to shout out good equipment. We all talk about how bad media can destroy ones "back up" dvd collection. A bad dvd burner and drive can do much worse.

Just thought a I would add my 2cents in here. I have a Lite on Burner cannot remember the exact model its there newest one out though. And after 14 Burns I love it. It is fast and quiet and a pleasure to use. I did alot of research prior to buying and all reviews and recommendations led me to Lite On. You will be very pleased.

Whitfield,

Glad to see everything working well. Don't hesitate to ask any questions regarding anything you are having trouble with or not sure about. Believe me I've asked some questions I thought were pretty stupid. Ya can't learn if ya don't ask. Good luck and happy burning.

Mort--thanks again to you and arniebear, I am now burning DVD-Rom's and tried them in my neighbor's stand alone Sony DVD player and they worked! I have lived next to this guy now for a couple years and when he borrowed my DVD back-ups they would not work--any of them--and we tried several times--So, with this new burner, I burned a backup as a DVD-ROM and took it over--It worked!! He thinks I'm a genius and I am not telling him different! hehe Have a great weekend guys
