First, one needs to speak like an adult. The Yo is not necessary, as we can all see what is written. Second and more important, I question how you could be a member of this forum since May and not realize that +R and -R are 2 completely different types of formats. Unless the Cendyne is both + and- compatible which I do not know of that model, no it won't work with your existing media.

Cendyne makes a dual format (+ and -) writer, I bought mine at Costco for $230. They also make single format writers (+ or -). If you get a (+) format drive it will not write (-) discs. Search the "DVD writers" section on this stite for the Cendyne you need.

If you want to know the differences between (+) and (-) formats then check the "Glossary" on this website.

Also check the "DVD players" section to see what format your stand alone player supports. I would go with the dual format just in case.

Popee there is no reason to be an ******* about it. We were all kids once. He also may have been on this forum for the VCD scene, and not know a single thing about DVD-R and DVD+R. In any event this forum is a place to help each other not put each other down for spelling/grammar/speech/race/creed/religion, and there is no reason to do so.

The only good reason to put someone down here is if they use DVD+R.

To Popee:

I agree with you. This kid needs to leran how to communicate properly if he wants someone to help him.

Sorry, that's "learn". Let's see if I get bashed for not knowing how to spell.

Popee my have over-reacted, but calling people names in retaliation is definatly not needed. Please remain civil.

I would however like to give you some advice. If you are buying on Ebay, make sure to double-check the product they claim, as Cendyne does make both 4x +R, and 4x -R drives (as well as dual format). The seller may not know the difference. Ask them for a part number then go here..

And look it up. Better to be safe then buy something you don't want.

And BTW, I am very happy with my DVR-105 if you want a recomendation.

Posts like that I simply don't respond to, especially if I have the exact answer to the dubioulsy worded question. Word to the wise: Clear and concise. English as a 2nd/3rd/4th language isn't an issue, most of us are quite understanding if a verb is mis-tensed :P
