Well i am new to dvd burning stuff. I just bought a lite-on dvd writer and a dvd-r dl dvd for backing-up my files. I am using nero's latest 7 version and to my horror it keeps giving the error that you need dvd+r dl or dvd+rw for writing this dvd. But on the lite-on's box it says it supports this format.plz help.
Hi Ankur_G, Welcome to AD. Okay can you give some more details on your burner such as model number. Before I make a suggestion would like to look the burner specs up. Or you can click the link http://www.videohelp.com/dvdwriters type in the make of your burner and it will tell you what it is capable of burning. Oops forgot to ask for a nero log..in your case Nero 7 history log location: C: Program Files>Nero>Nero 7>Core>NeroHistory.tx
Hi there, Please provide us a full burn log. Or tell us exactly what model is your DVD Burner, and what firmware version is on it ! Maybe your burner doesn't support DVD-R DL just DVD+R DL ! Or with a firmware upgrade, it will support DVD-R DL.
i am sorry the vendor screwed me! this is lite-on sohw-1633S and it doesn't support this format. i am gonna kill him!
Hi there, Isn't this a good burner ? The hell with DVD-R DL, stick with Verbatim DVD+R DL and forget all the other issues DVD-R DL might not be a good idea at all for video anyway. Data maybe. My 2 cents...
