Hi,

Problems with DVDs from some hardware recorders are a common
problem, AFAIK.

Even if the "features" they use are legal in the official DVD
standard but not commonly used, it will be hard for OSS developers
to reengineer such features.

As the DVD standard is at $$ and includes signing a NDA, I am afraid
this situation will not improve in short time :(.

OTOH producers of hardware recording devices could add some "nice"
proprietary "features", which will totally break even with the
official standard. - Just a mess, IMHO :(.

In general it's quite the same situation we had with early DVD
players. The less well know the producer of the device is, the more
you can hope he has produced a devices following the OSS way of
reengineering instead of looking for some extra "features" of the
official standard and the more compatible the devices will be.

Just my 0.02 EUR.
