Hello All, I have a Sony DVD RW DRU-710 A (REVBYO1)the manufactured date on the side is Dec 04. I have always used DVD-r's to copy a movie. I was advised to go to DVD+r"s . My problem is that I cannot get it to write on them. I use both ANYDVD & CLONEDVD. Why can't I write with the DVD+"S ??
@picman47 Do you get an error? Or what happens? Could be the brand of discs your using - which ones are you using? Your drive supports both formats and also booktyping. Booktyping the +r's to dvd-rom makes the discs more compatible w/ players. Your drives firmware can use an update also. The latest is BYX5. This may help. Here's a link: http://sony.storagesupport.com/dvdrw/dru710adwn.htm
What I get is a popup on clonedvd after it has copied the original dvd on computer,and begins to write it to the blank dvd that says "install a recordable media" Of which I have already done, it is like it does not recognize the dvd+r that I have in there. I am using Officemax 8x, which I was told is made by HP. I will upgrade the firmware. thanks
I wasn't aware HP manufactured any of it's own media. Download DVD Identifier and install. (free) Put a DVD in the burner. With DVD Identifier open click the Identify box. Post the info you get in the box to the left of Identify here.
