| Hi everyone, im trying to write on a DVD but I don't really know what the problem is, when I insert a blank DVD appears this message, "insert a valid disk", I have no problem with reading CD's and DVD's, and with CDs writing not problem at all but is not the same with DVD writing. I've a VAIO Notebook (PCG-FR872) ad the DVD/CD-ROM unit is a matshita uj-810, since I get it I had the idea that am able tu burn dvd's too but never try it before, now that i need to back up my files i found this problem. i already use the notebook default software and other ones like nero (where the burn icon appears off) Any help will be useful for me thx |

| What blank media are you trying? It looks like only -R format is compatible with your burner and not +R. Could this be your problem?

| I'm using TDK blank media, indeed it says DVD +R DVD Recordable. Whats the difference between a +R and -R. The tap of my unit only has a 'DVD R/RW' so I dont know which one supports |

Your burner is a panasonic. A useful site for now and future use is Video Help.com. For your specific drive click on this link and scroll down. As you see, +R is not supported by matshita UJ-810 (panasonic UJ-810). Pick up some quality -R media and you should be ok...Taiyo Yuden would be a good choice...easily accessible online.
