Due to the karking of a VCR I am looking to buy a DVD HDD recorder. One requirement is to record off air for subsequent importation into iMovie. Currently I have been doing this by recording to VHS, playing back into my camera and then transferring into the computer. I envisage transferring via DVD in future. Format of DVDs is my query. Am I correct in the supposition that DVD+R or DVD+RW is not compatible with my Superdrive? Further, if anyone has words of wisdom on this area it would be most appreciated. I should mention that I already have a combo DVD player/VHS recorder so I do not need VHS tape facility, which I will phase out of my operation now.

I'd highly recommend checking that the disks it writes can be imported into iMovie. They're likely to be MPEG program streams which are not in a format that iMovie can necessarily read, even if your drive can read the disks.

Have fun,
Shay
