A re-coding or re-burning is a > very time-comsuming process. If you are unsure just take a a DVD writer that can burn both the + and - format. I never had problems with DVD+RW or DVD-R. Except one Grundig DVD player that didn't like DVD+RW, but that player also did not like VCD/SVCD. I had more problems with DVD drives in the PC that didn't like the DVD+RW :-/ auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
