ghwong Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I'm stumped. I've read almost everything on this website and still having problems. I'm burning DVD video files directly to single layer media. I followed every step of this guide: http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=4632. I used Verbatim DVD+R media. I burned at a slower speed than maximum. The procedure, including verification, concluded successfully without error. The burned DVD plays fine in my computer DVD player. The disc is NOT recognized by my Panasonic DVD-RV32 player. You can see from the log below that the book type is DVD-ROM "I 19:28:50 Source Media Type: DVD+R (Book Type: DVD-ROM) (Disc ID: MCC-004-00) (Speeds: 4x, 8x, 12x, 16x, 18x)". I have a DVD+R burned disc from a friend that IS recognized fine by the Panasonic player. What am I missing? I 19:07:08 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!

LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 What dye is used on the disc that does work? Does the player give an error message when it tries to read the disc you burnt there? Have you tried burning at 8x or 12x? Slower isn't always better.

volvofl10 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Have any +R disc's worked on the Panasonic DVD-RV32 player? according to panasonic's manual , this player does not support the +R format. DVD-Video, DVD-R (R4.7), CD-Audio (CD-DA), Video-CD, CD-R/CD-RW (CD-DA, Video-CD formatted discs) * It may not be able to play some CD-R/RW due to the condition of the recording. panasonic players are notoriously picky with what brands of media they will play. I had 2 panny's that would not play -R verbatim's with the MCC dye !. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 The disc that works has been left 'open', maybe that's got something to do with it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghwong Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 Does anyone know where I can get some blank DVD+R's with the media code RICOHJPN-R01-02? Do they still make them anymore? My old Panasonic DVD-RV32 standalone DVD player (with updated firmware) will read a disc with this media code but nothing else. Help! Here is a list of some brand names that have this media code: Emtec DVD+R 4x Fuji DVD+R 4x Imation DVD+R 4x Maxell 1-4x Nashua DVD+R 4x Platinum DVD+R 4x PrimeDisc DVD+R 4x Ricoh DVD+R 4x Speer DVD+R 4x TDK 1-4x TDK DVD+R 4x Tevion DVD+R 4x 3t PRO DVD+R 4x Arita DVD+R 4x BestMedia Platinum DVD+R 4x CompUSA DVD+R 4x Databank DVD+R 4x Datasafe Media DVD+R 4x Datawrite Classic DVD+R 4x Infiniti DVD+R 4x LG DVD+R 4x Lite-On DVD+R 4x Medion DVD+R 4x Memorex DVD+R 4x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
