Here's my problem. I've been playing around with my new Philips DVD recorder, and editing using my PC and TMPGenc XPRESS 3. However, when I delete various titles on the DVD recorder, the PC still sees SOME of these files, and the whole editing process becomes impossible, probably because of the different file systems used. When I format the RW+ disc in NERO (Full format), the disc is then unreadable in the DVD recorder (It says'Invalid disk format'). I can of course use a new RW disc, but of course if I'm only going to be able to edit properly after the 1st burn, I might as well use a non-writable disc. The DVD SETUP menu for formatting (Though it's not a proper full format, just marking free space for the recorder, and thus the cause of my problem) is not accessible after I format a disc in NERO. Is there any way to format a RW+ disc so that my DVD recorder will accept it as it would a new disc? Thanks

Obviously 'Erasing' the disc does not produce blank data as a new disc, because the DVD recorder won't accept it.

Hey up, I've just formatted using EASY MEDIA CREATOR 7, and it works fine. Don't ask me why.

Try putting the disc in the recorder tray, but do not hit the button to close the tray. Hit "record" on the front panel or remote. The tray should close and either recording will start or you will get a screen that asks if you want to record over the disc.

When i do a quick erase using NERO and then try to record that disc in my Philips DVDR75 it tells me that the disc contains unknown data and then tells me if I want to erase it to hit record.
Has worked every time so far. -

I prefer dvdram, these take me about 30 sec to format. -
Copy a VR-formated-blank to your RW.
OR you can:
Save to HD all the folders of a formated only VR disk
ISO or bin or image burn them.
ignore all error mesages
