BTW, did you try it, or is that just what the manual says?  If the
manual was written before +R/+RW came out, they may work, but the
author wouldn't have known it at the time.


Scott, you hit it, the manual told me this. I don't really have access to a DVD
that is in the "+", so there is a speed bonus out there when I try a "+RW" on
the "other room" DVD player.

It seems that the disc blanks one purchases takes some deliberation because it
seems what you can do is based much on the disc. I pursed the Sunday paper ads 
looking
for types of discs. I saw most of the + and - with R and RW excepting I did not 
see 
DVD-RW featured, but I'm sure I'll find it when I get to a supply store.

Thanks,

P.S. Next time you post, "Where is "nu" and are "U" at "nu"?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
