Looks like my Pioneer burner is shot: doesn't recognize DVDs at all... Though it seems to have no problem with reading or burning CDs. Head Scratch

DVDs and CDs use different laser wavelengths. It looks like the DVD laser setting is hosed.

Yeah, that site is very popular. But a few months ago when I was looking for some blank dvds I wasn't impressed with their prices. It was cheaper for me to get them at the store.

No, I'll check it out. Thanks for the info. Victory! Peace! I used to get blank dvds for free, so I've never really bought that much.

I typically buy the Taiyo Yuden silver premium DVDs... About $26 for 100.
