    Hi
    I bought this burner from Ebuyer.co.uk but it wont work with Discrite or Bulkpaq DVD-R's. The drive wont even pick them up! (No media inserted)

    The bundled DVD-R & RW work fine so the drive cant be faulty. Anyone else found this?

    If you buy DVD+R/RW media for your DVD+R/RW burner there is a better chance that they will work...

    I sent it back. Waste of money tbh.

    What good is a DVD burner that doesn't recognise DVD-R's?

    My advice to anyone is DO NOT BUY LITEON DVD-R DRIVES. I've read a few things about them and it's VERY difficult to find media that works.

    It's not even as thought I got coasters, the media wasn't even picked up by the drive as a blank.

    Please... There are two DVD formats + and -. The Lite-On will work perfectly fine with DVD+R/RW media but will not write DVD-R/RW media as it's a single format DVD+R/RW burner.
    Next time maybe you should check some facts before buying?
