I was serious about doing that ....but I haven't given up hope yet...
but if you read other threads here people are having the same problems...
there has to be a common link why these wont play...

I borrowed my buddys new dvd and it played immediately on the new dvd for the tv...go figure...

the converted dvd+r didnt play on the tv but now I have a permanent copy for the pc or somewhere else...

I was converting all the dvd+rw's to permanent discs anyway....

btw at staples right now has the 25 pack of dvd+r and dvd-r's for $7.94 instead of $24....so I'm stocking up...

so after I practice on the dvd+rw's and everything is cool...I'm switching them to the dvd+r's for now...
