I assume you can confirm that RICKHJPN in original post was just a typo. > which are supposed to be pretty good, Yes, RICOHJPN is by far most widely used and solid DVD+RW brand. A number of vendors sell it under their label: Ricoh (naturally:-), Philips, HP and Sony to name few... > and are on the campatibility page for my drive. Well, DD0203 is capable of 2.4xDVD+RW recordings only, while /W11 must be denoting 4xDVD+RW media. There is a chance that it's not fully supported by firmware anyway, as it seems that /W11 is recently introduced product (so far I could only observe /W01 IDs). > I've used dvd+rw-format and growisofs without the dvd-compat option > before, so maybe that's what left the discs unusable... Or combination of both... A.
