That's what it gives me. I have Phillips DVD+R rewritables and by all means should be able to erase what's on there but for whatever reason I can't. Any suggestions?

You can't erase single use recordables. You need rewritables for that aka DVD+RW. So which is it. Are you using DVD+r or +RW. Your message isn't clear. Other that that your dive may not like that cheap Philips crap

Sorry, it says DVD+R with a small box directly underneath with RW in it.

That's a standard logo, those discs are single use. Rewritables are clearly marked DVD+RW
