I have +RW and -RW disks, a +-RW drive in my computer, a Sony +-RW DVD recorder. When I have used MyDVD LE to burn a disk it works in my Sony player but gets stuck in my Sony recorder. Biggest problem is that I literally have to use a screwdriver to roll the plastic wheel that runs the load/unload mechanism. After a few more times this will probably break and I will not be very happy. For now, I am reluctant to put any disk created on the computer into this recorder.

I have also noticed that when I take a +or- RW disk and erase it I can't use it in the recorder either. Says there isn't a disk. Now I am guessing that there is a format issue here.

Can anyone shed some light on this.

The drive in the computer is a Philips DVDRW DL - DVD8801
The recorder is a Sony RDR-GX315

Forgot to mention that I did upgrade to MyDVD Premier 8

If you have to use a screwdriver on the Sony player, it sounds like you have big hardware problems, not software problems.
