Any good quality, proven media such as verbatum, taiyo yuden, sony, fuji (made in japan) or maxell. I even had good results with prodisc R03. I recommend +r media since benq's are capable of booktyping +r/rw media to dvd-rom therefor increasing compatability with stand-alone dvd players.

If you got an oem drive which doesn't come with the booktype management utility software, you can download the app for free from benq. I would also check for any f/w updates.

I guess I either answered your questions or you didn't like my answers since you didn't reply back.

No prob, it's just nice to know if our suggestions or advice was of any help.
I doubt you have any problems with those TY dvd-r's. I mainly use +r's to take advantage of their ability to be booktyped dvd-rom. I feel +r's are the better of the two formats but thats just my opinion. Here's a good read. http://www.cdfreaks.com/article/113
