I read that DVD+VR is an editable way of writing my footage to dvd. It allows me to add more to the disc later, or edit the contents, sounds like I need to use +RW discs though.
I read that:-
"With a DVD-VR disc, created using a DVD-RW burning device, you can only playback the contents on a DVD-RW compatible device, and not on a standard home DVD player. However, with DVD+VR format the discs created can be played on DVD+RW compatible devices "and" home DVD players."
So far, I have been using dvd-r discs for maximum readability for friends etc. I have bought many for my vhs to dvd transferring. dvd-r writes quicker than -rw and thats also a factor as I have lots to do.
I now have the current Ulead Movie factory which offers DVD+VR or -VR as writing options for putting mpeg footage onto dvd. I also read that DVD-R is the best media to purchase for compatability with most TV unit DVD players.
Now that I come to use my new Ulead prog...is it ok to write DVD+VR to a -R disc ?
No doubt this will not be editable....or is it ? I keep wondering how I can add more footage to an existing dvd-r disc, still unsure !
Is it that if I want editability I must buy +RW discs ? but having read that dvd+r is less widespread compatible to dvd-r, what of +rw, same problem or not ?
if I do edit the +VR, I don't see myself changing chapters, just tacking more footage on. As such, dvd-r may still be best perhaps but as Ulead only gives +VR or -VR as writing choice I need some advice please.
