According to the diagram on an Imation jewel case insert:
DVD-R, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD+R drives can read DVD -/+ R/RW, CD-R/RW
DVD-R/RAM drives can read DVD -/+ R/RW, DVD-RAM, CD-R/RW
DVD-R drives can write DVD-R, CD-R/RW
DVD-R/RW drives can write DVD-R/RW, CD-R/RW
DVD-R/RAM drives can write DVD-R/RAM
DVD+R/RW drives can write DVD+R/RW, CD-R/RW
DVD+RW drives can write DVD+RW, CD-R/RW
Note that this may not be correct for some models, especially stereo
players.

I live in Killeen, Texas, USA.
