DVD writing

[t_tringle]

Hi all,

I have had success transferring Tivo video to DVD+RW using an HP 
dvd100i/j. However success will depend on a good many factors. 
First, I would try to find someone who has the type of Burner you 
are interested in buying and have them create a generic DVD for you 
to test in your DVD standalone players.

Second is the software you use with your burner. I have used 
numerous packages , DVDIt PE, MYDVD (came with the hp burner), 
ReelDVD, and Scenarist.

ReelDVD seems to be the most compatible (Scenarist was way too 
difficult at my level of knowledge to get working yet)

In case anybody has been keeping up on DVD+RW and all of the other 
standards, I have found DVD+RW to be pretty compatible however the 
even more (supposedly) compatible DVD+R, the record only half of 
DVD+RW (and cheaper!) may not be a workable solution in the first 
Generation DVD+RW drives. Which makes me mad since everything I read 
inferred that company's were going to provide compatibility in a 
firmware upgrade. Oh well, they don't call it bleeding edge for 
nothing.

If anybody has any questions about DVD+RW, I would be glad to help 
out. of course VCDhelp.com and their upcoming DVD burning site will 
probably be very helpful as well.
