i read in the dvd media sticky that maybe v4 ps2's cant read dvd+r or dvd-r discs?

i hope this isnt true because thats the type of ps2 i have

also ive tried burning games on fujifilm dvd+r's and the ps2 makes a wierd noise whenever it trys to read them

but, the fujifilm discs I have are the ones made in Taiwan and i heard those discs are krappy

can someone clear this up for me so i dont have to go buy a new ps2, I'm hopeing that I just have krappy media and need to get some better quality discs

If so would +r or -r be better from you guys past experiences?

Would these work?

What type of Mod are you using? Swapmagic? Modchip?

You can always booktype DVD+R media to DVD-ROM if your burner supports it
