Does not support burning DVD-video in DVD-ROM disk

What does that message mean?

I am using DVD-R the error message says it supports them.
Even changed the DVD writer.

Maybe it is because of some DVD writer programs I installed lately.
Before I start deleting them does anyone have an idea?
Sometimes also hangs on the preview window. I reinstalled the software to no avail.

Could very well be.

Sometimes also hangs on the preview window.

Sounds like a DirectX issue.

Weird indeed.
Some of my DVD's thought they were CD's

I tried using Nero yesterday and it worked OK so I bought a new CD writer. This time I used the disk that VS told me:
Does not support DVD-Video in DVD-ROM disc. The message is wrong and should say CD-ROM disc. Trying the errant disk in Nero I was told that it needed a DVD and I had inserted a CD-ROM disk.

Seems only the top discs (so far) were bad now VS works fine.
Thanks for the help.
I need a drink.
