    I am so worried now. Because I am affraid that my DVD+R cannot play on my stand alone DVD player.

    Please tell me that should I return the drive or keep it? If I keep it, can i still copy the DVD movies to DVD+R?
    Thank you.

    Yes you can still copy to DVD+R. Most players will play the discs though they are generally less compatible than -R but don't let that put you off.

    Try burning them as DVD-ROMS.

    Make sure you have Nero 5 5 10 35 and on the "Burn" tab, put a tick in the box next to "Book type DVD-ROM".

    Then try that disc in your player.

    Thank you very much, you guys make me feel more comfortable. Because I alsmost packed the drive and return it to exchange for the DVD-R drive.
    Last question, if I keep the drive DVD+R seem very expensive, any where that I can buy the DVD+R disk cheap?
    Best regards,

    xichlo it just depends where you live? I live in the USA, I found Best Buy to be the best spot for me. I just bought 100 Fuji Film DVD+R for $110.00 after all the rebates. If you live outside the US someone else may be able to help you.. Goodluck_X_X_X_X_X_[small]Despite All My Rage - I'm Still Just A Rat In A Cage!
