Hello, Sorry if you all have already answered this question. I searched the forum and couldn't find it. Well, here it goes: Can I burn on a DVD+R instead of a DVD-R using DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink. My DVD Drive supports all types of media DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW, DVD-RW. Just asking because I have a stack of DVD+Rs that haven't been used. Plus, I'm worried that my dvd player may not play dvd-r as my friend's dvd player doesn't support dvd-r. Thanks in advance.
The quick answer is yes of course you can burn to +R instead of the -R format ;-) The same rules apply to the software(s) involved no matter which format of blank media you choose to go with. All I would say is that you want to use as good media as possible because poor/inferior media can casue an awful lot of problems along the way. If you get errors on playback with media , then try burning at a slower setting or simply buy decent media [lol] _X_X_X_X_X_[small] Afterdawn Guides: http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/ Afterdawn Rules: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2487[/small]
Thanks! Now that you answered that question, I have another. I just tried to copy pirates of the caribbean and the file appears to be too big to copy onto a regular DVD+R. What can I do to fix this? How do I shrink it? Also, I am using DVD Decrypter and when I have to choose my source to burn the movie I have two files: one ends with .ISO and the other with .MDS Which one do I use? Once again thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for your assistance! I have burned the movie and it works great! This software is awesome. You get menus and extras - an exact copy of the movie FOR FREE! Couldn't ask for anything better!
