Does anyone know what it takes to make a finalized didk from the DVDRHD04 play on anyother DVD Player? I have 5 in my house and the disk will not paly on any of them. HELP!
I am going to assume that you never finalized a disk with this unit. I take it you are using +R disks. If using +RW no finalizing is necessary. I hav a RHD04 and have used both and have had no problems. One machine an older Sanyo would not accept them. But 5. I would think the odds are against it. Before you blame the machine make sure its not in the operation. Finalizing a disk is an option in the tools section. [On the remote buttons, 2nd row from bottom, third from left]. Page 39 in manual
As I said the disk has been finalized and yes, I have tried 5 other DVD players and the disk will not play on any. I am using +R disks and I need to find out what other DVD players they will play on?
Make sure the HD04 has the latest firmware on it. Also, you may need to check if your other players are able to play +R/RW media.
Are you using the Go-DVD as the go between? We have found DVD-R do not record or play on another machines, the dvd+r & the dvd-rw (probably the best but could get erased )will play if the machines are both compatable (able to play +r/RW media) and electrically ( my husbands sleeping he could explain it better, has to do with whether they are neg. or poss. run).
I am having the same problem with the DVDRHD04 the DVD+RW will not open on any thing other than the DVDRHD04 but a DVD+R will play,rip,etc have the latest frim ware from ilo site have not tried the hacked verision and the recorder will not finalized a DVD+RW I have only tried maxwell +RWs because it was all I could get any help
I downloaded the latest firmware (ILOHACKED) and everything is working fine. You can not finalize a DVD-RW. It is a RW so you can reuse over and over.
it appears to be the media I tried another DVD+RW philips instead of maxell an now Ican read the DVD+RW files
