I like DVD-R myself, my current burner can not booktype. Plus they have always played great on both my PS2's, and i had glitches wen using +R media.
But if you booktype DVD=R to DVD-Rom as mentioned i have heard that works real well. Also make sure that you use quality media.
The problems you are having are usually, but not always, due to cheap media. Sometime it is because your burners firmware is out of date. And sometimes it is because people either use their PC or have other programs running in the backround when burning.

I've got a different sort of problem. I've already got .cue file and tried burning it with the Image Burning Wizard. What Write Method should I use (RAW DAO, RAW SAO,DAO/SAO, RAW SAO + SUB, & TAO)? I already selected for "Playstation 2" for Datatype. What happens when I push START is that it initializes and says on status "empty disc" (I'm using a blank Maxell DVD-R which worked before).
yes, and hopefully you have both the Bin and Cue files.
Yes you burn the Cue file, but it is basically just a file that contains the information of the Bin location and how it should handle the file. You will need both.
A different sort of problem this time. I don't know how or why but I can't select datatype, write method, or anything else for that matter in the second page of the burn wizard. Everytime I make changes for data type in the options it always reverts back instead of reading Playstation 2.
What's weird is that I was able to burn both PS2 DVD and CD games before after following people's advice last April.
