    hi, everyone i have a samsung r-100e recorder.
    the problem is that its telling me it can't read or record the disc because it needs formatting-- but i have recorded on this disc plenty of times before.
    so i tried to unfinalize it and delete it but i get the same message-needs formatting????

    tried doing that but still no go.
    p.s i have had this machine for some time and never had this problem before.

    Sounds like the disc could have gone bad. If you have a DVD writer in your computer, you could try to format it using that. Otherwise, it's time for a new disc.
