  1. I have a Panasonic LF-D311 burner, which can write to DVD-R and DVD-RAM.

    My question is: can I burn a movie to a DVD-RAM disc, or only to DVD-R? My DVD recorder for home entertainment is a panasonic, and can read DVD-RAM, so there shouldn't be an incompatibility problem.

    Thanks.

  2. I believe it'd work...

  3. I would think it should. Now the question is: what software do I need to burn a move onto a DVD-RAM disc?

    I'm running WinXP. The disc wizard in PowerDirector Pro doesn't seem to be able to write to DVD-RAM.

    The file system of a DVD-RAM appears to be UDF, if it matters...

    You don't "burn" to DVD-RAM, as far as I know. You just drag files like you might any other disk in your system. That is once you have the drivers loaded and working. As far as playing them on your player, that's a question I would like the answer too. I also have the LF-D311 (310) and was thinking of getting a Panasonic player that supports RAM disks.

    Try making the DVD folders, and then just drag them to the root of the RAM disk.

    The previous post is correct... I have done this with my DVD-RAM drive...
    TOSHIDA SD-1111
    SO you gotta make VIDEO_TS elsewhere and DRAG it to
    THE DVD RAM ICON in MY COMPUTER...

    The resultant disc (one sided media can be removed from the cartridge)will look like a DVD to a software player- but will never play in a settop except for those RECORDABLE SETOPS that record to DVD RAM...
    the MACg4's recognized one sided discs but few windows drive handle the naked discs...

    btw..In Win 98, A DVD RAM DRIVE has 2 icons one for DVD and CD read and one for DVD-RAM writes
    but in XP UDF support is in the OS and only one ICON resides in MY COMPUTER
