Hi I have the rcs hdv5000 and when i try to play any of my dvd+rs it says unsupported disc format even though it says it will play dvd+rs any ideas guys?
The RCA HDV5000 is practically a clone of the Toshiba HD-A1 - same specs with slight cosmetic changes in front, and same price. With my HD-A1 I haven't had any problems playing backups when I use DVD Decrypter, ImgBurn and AnyDVD both for DVD+R and DVD+R DL. I also have no problems playing home movies on DVD+R authored and burned with Pinnacle Studio 9 or 10. Maybe if you tell us how you burn your DVD's we can give you some suggestions?

Sure.. Im using dvdxcopy to rip and burn onto memorex dvd+rs using any dvd as well. My sony upconversion player played em flawlessly but for some odd reason the rca hd player just wont recognize the disks as a supported format and im out of hdmi inputs on my tv so i cant have both players connected what a bummer.
The experts on the DVD+R Media Forums will tell you that Memorex DVD+R's are not the best choice and are very unreliable: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/379580 I suggest TY or Verbatim.
remember one thing memorex is the devil of blank media...stick with some good blank media like Verbatim or sony an so on....
