    I don't know if there's any manufacturer of DL recorder whose products can't be played on standalone players. Where did you look?

    Summary: As long as you use Verbatim double layer media there is no problems and the drive automatically bitsets the discs to DVD-ROM.
    Quote:
    Supports 2.4x DVD+R Dual Layer writing
    Supports 16x DVD+/-R speed.
    Supports 4x DVD+/-RW speed.
    Very fast writer, so far it holds the speed record.
    Impressive writing quality on most DVD+R media types
    Very good writing quality on most DVD-R media types
    Excellent CD-R writing quality.
    Supports Walking OPC technology to adjust writing strategy while writing.
    Supports DAO-RAW writing.
    Supports reading and writing of full SubChannel Data.
    Good reading speed with most types of media, including DVD-Video discs.
    Good seek times.
    Fast and perfect audio extraction, also with copy protected audio discs.
    Supports reading and writing 99 minutes CD-R discs.
    Supports bitsetting for all types of DVD+R/R DL/RW media and automatically sets booktype to DVD-ROM for all these media.
    Supports advanced disc quality testing (FE/TE, PIE/PIF/POF and Jitter)

    Supports writing many 8x DVDR discs at 12x or 16x speed, unlike most other 16x writers.
    BenQ drives also support bitsetting for DL. Pioneer, too. NEC, too. Lite-On, too. LG also writes DL as having DVD-ROM booktype in all of their DL recorders regardless of firmware.

    Where did you read about compatibility problems with standalone players?
