Am new to the DVD field and my knowledge base is not too great. Are you burning your own DVDs and have a large supply of DVD+R media that you don't want to toss? There are utilities around that will change the "booktype" of your media to fool readers into thinking that your +R disk is really a -R. I have one from LiteOn, but it may only work on LiteOn drives. http://www.liteonit.com/DOWNLOADS/utilities/BookType135.zip -- Bert Hyman St. Paul, MN bert(a)iphouse.com |
