Appologise for posting in this thread, BUT i couldnt think of n e where else, and this is like my second ever post, so appoligies in advance.

I have just bought toast titanium 8, and am running it on my 12" PowerBook G4. I am looking to burn all my movies to DVD so they play in my home dvd player. A friend told me to get the DVD+R which i did, as he claimed this was the same as "he used" with his mac; however upon closer inspection my trusty PB G4 has a DVD-R drive. This may sound stupid but could i quite posibly burn the DVD+R discs with my -r drive??

If your burner does not support +Rs, then you will not be able to. I use DVD-R because they can be played in more DVD players than DVD+Rs. Most of the older DVD players only support DVD-Rs.
