If you're using DVDR disks then there shouldn't be any formatting involved at all. DVDRW disks do require such a procedure but for long term application storage they are not as stable.

Hi Mark, What are you attempting to burn to the disk? Do you want to burn a movie, data, ISO images, or something else? For all tasks except copying data, I let the burning application do the erase, format, and burning? Are you using DVD-R or DVD-RW media? What Operating System are you using?
