Mac Forum / General / Portable Macs / September 2004DVD+R in my iBook
OK, so I hire a guy with a PC to shoot and edit a wedding and burn it onto DVD. He asks me if I preffer "+" or "-" DVD. I ask him to do both. They play fine in my livingroom DVD-player. The DVD-R also playes fine on my iBook (Combo, not supperdrive). I put the DVD+R in my iBook, it shows up on the desktop and I can navigate, it looks just like the DVD-R, but the Apple DVD-player gives me an error. I guess the Apple DVD player does not like DVD+R. Why? the finder seems happy with it. > OK, so I hire a guy with a PC to shoot and edit a wedding and burn it > onto DVD. He asks me if I preffer "+" or "-" DVD. I ask him to do both.

In fact there have only recently been +/-R drives available on the street. You can probably retrofit one in, for big $$ Your current drive will still see a piece of loaded media, even if it can't be read.

The DVD player application (and any incompatible set-top player ) won't see what they expect to see when they try to play the content. SignatureNo sig, no neuroses |
