John; DVD- and DVD+ are two different Formats. Save yourself the expense and trouble of ordering a "mechanism". I record on both formats on my computer. If you plan on making this your "bread and butter", do some reading. Although both fit into your CD drive, DVD+ and DVD- are like VHS and BETA. Too long of a story to bring onto TechAssist, but since DVD recording is in it's infancy...go to Google..enter your questions. -Ed- Tel-Tek Electronics Ontario-Canada teltek3@xxxxxxxxxxxx > From: John at Main TV <maintv2004@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Reply-To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Sat, 4 Sep 2004 15:01:56 -0600 > To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: [TechAssist] Magnavox MDV650R/17 no record in DVD+R. > > I have a Magnavox MDV650R/15 DVD recorder made in 2003.
