I was trying to transfer a TV programme from my HDD to DVD for someone using my DMR-BWT800.

I put in a Toshiba DVD player to check and it did not recognise that there was a disc in the machine.

It reads and plays OK in the DMR-BWT800, a Panasonic SD PVR with DVD and my laptop.

I had recorded as SP so did another as LP but got the same result.

I then copied the programme from the DVD to HDD using the Panasonic SD PVR, once there I blew another DVD using this Panasonic SD PVR. This one plays OK on my Toshiba DVD player.

The DVDs are +R and yes, I did finalise.

Anyone else had problems with the DMR-BWT800?

I have the similar DMR-BWT720 which is the third Pannny I have had over the last three years. All of them really didn't like +R discs. Once I changed to DVD-R I never had another problem. Maybe just me, but it's worth a try.

Thanks, I will give that a try (I think I have some -R somewhere)

Late - but two things to say.

Ensure you finalise a disc in the recorder that recorded the disc if you wish to play that disc on any other machine.

Secondly, it is always best NOT to use +R discs (or any + type disc formats) in any Japanese origin machines.

They will work, but all recordings will be restricted to 4:3 Aspect ratio.
