Burning DVD
Thanks for the responses to my first question. I still need to know if DVD-V is a disk that can be found. Some say it is the same as DVD-R. Who knows?! I have been unable to find such a disk at a store and the internet sites about DVD do not list them as an available media. I am not literate enough in this area. I just have a Sony DCR-HC65 mini DV camera that I recently purchased and I want to get my films onto a disk. The manual for DVD Movie factory 4, in the section on DVD DiskRecorder says, ".....users can capture, edit, and save videos in the DVD-VR format or convert these videos to DVD-Video format for use with DVD-RW or DVD-Ram." It appears that there is a type of disk known as DVD-VR. The manual is sorely lacking in user friendliness. It would be so easy to just say in simple terms in large print that the system will not work with nearly all the common DVDs available. It appears that DVD+-R will not work.
Sorry, I don't know what's causing that particular error. Do you have any other burning software on your computer? Does it work? Some other burning software can conflict with Ulead.
DVD-VR is a file or data format, it does not relate to the blank media format. Stand-alone DVD recorders seem to use the DVD-VR recording format. It's used for "live" real-time capture to DVD. I don't think it has anything to do with your situation.
The type of blank formats you can use depends only on your burner.... It has nothing to do with Ulead. If your DVD burner is not too old, it should be able to burn:
DVD-R
DVD+R
DVD+RW
DVD-RW
It may also be able to burn dual-layer, but the Ulead application does have something to do with that capability.
You should also know that some stand-alone DVD players can't play 'burned" DVDs, and some have trouble with some of the blank-media formats. Your best odds are with DVD-R.

I have a JVC DRM-10 DVD Recorder and if you use a -R disc it automatically records in DVD-Video mode.
If I use a -RW disc I have the option of recording in VR mode or DVD-Video.
Using VR mode means I can edit out the ads on on my DVD recorder and then I take this disc to my computer and convert it using Movie Factory to DVD-Video. So I then end up with a copy of my original recording on a -R disc in DVD-Video Mode.
A disc recorded in VR-Mode will not play in someone elses DVD player so you need to convert it to DVD-Video.

Hi,
DVD-V stands for DVD-VIDEO (slang term).
It's a dvd format not a physical disk.
Simply purchase dvd-r and make a dvd-video disk (dvd-v disk).
Read the following link for help on the terminology.
Do not download these programs. They aren't for windows systems.

So, if you want to make a DVD-V disk (DVD-VIDEO Disk).
Purchase DVD-R and use MF to make a video dvd. Then you have
your dvd-v disk.
Hope this helps,
MD
