I'll be getting a DVD recorder in about a week. It uses DVD+R/RW dvds but plays all types. Can most DVD players handle the DVD+R/RW format? What do most of you use to make yours?
I'd love to start trading stuff when I get it. I'll post my little list shortly. |

most newer dvd players will play both fine. but I'd go with dvd-r if you want it to play smooth on older/cheaper dvd players.

| DVD-R seems to be pretty universal with older DVD players...it depends on what you plan to play them on. My Apple DVD burner only uses DVD-R, but the burner I put in my PC can deal with both. If you are talking about a stand alone componant, than you should be able to use both. |

I use DVD+R, I have also found that the more expensive DVD's you buy the less errors you have.
I usually buy the Memorex 8X DVD+R |

Sony DVD-R is what I use.
DVD+R will give you some issues when dealing with different players, mac users, etc. DVD-R will usually work fine for all applications and machines. |

| My new DVD recorder is working great. I'm using Sony DVD+R and they even play in my super cheap Cyberhome DVD player. No problems! |
