My guess would be that it is either using packet writing (unlikely), or the
disc isn't closed.

Subject: [H] DVD Formats
I'm just starting to look into this, but maybe someone here knows the answer
already. I have a set-top DVD Burner, a Samsung DVD-R120. Got it for only
80 bucks and used it hooked up to a VCR to copy over tapes. Does a pretty
good job. However, I recently slapped it into my computer (actually both
computers) and neither sees the disk at all. Doesn't play and won't show up
any file listing (MCE just hangs). Do set-top DVD recorders use some sort
of different format? I'm using the same disks for all my DVD burners (-R).
Thanks....Steve
