I'm not sure that I can help you. I have never had any trouble labeling lightscribe disks for any brand of DVD.

I assume that you have a lightscribe-capable DVD burner. I turn the DVD over in the burner tray, use Nero to make a lightscribe label (in the special lightscribe label section of Nero), click on the lightscribe print button, select best quality, and it begins. It is possible to get a slightly darker label if the disk is burned twice without removing the disk after the first burn, but doing this probably is not needed.

You must have the lightscribe label software such as comes with Nero, or whatever software that came with your burner. Trying to make a lightscribe label using regular label software that is intended to print on paper will not work.

You could try a different brand of DVD. If the same problem occurs, I would suspect either that your burner is at fault or that you are not using lightscribe software to make the labels. Can't think of anything else.

There are differences in quality with DVDs. Some brands will not play on older DVD players as well as other brands. What this means is that if you are making a lot of DVDs, some brands will have more "duds" in a box than will other brands.

For single-layer DVDs, I recommend the Taiyo Yuden brand.
For dual-layer DVDs, Verbatim has done well for me.

I usually buy from http://www.meritline.com/ but there are a lot of listings on eBay.

I will need to make DVDs from AVI to watch on a typical TV DVD player both
in the US Region I and in Belgium Region II where I have a built in DVD
Region II player and a stand alone DVD player region free.  What disks
should I purchase to have the greatest ease of both recording the DVDs and
playing them .what I am looking for is DVD-R or DVD+R or DVD-RW or DVD+RW .I
will NOT archive with them for the most part, but will watch and re-record,
but I may make a few to give to family members who do NOT have a DVD
recorder so I will want some record once types for that.  Advice?  I have
IBM DVD recorder and WinDVD creator etc. that came with it.tia!
