I have a Sony RDR-GX7 and I have recorded a couple of movies off tv like you would with a vcr. I have tried to play the disk in a laptop, and 4 dvd players and none will play them. Do I have to do anything special when I record them or is it just coincidental that none of the units will play DVD-R? I have a Tsohiba dvd/tv 9", Samsaung dvd home theater, HP laptop, and a Mintek small personal tv....I can't believe none will play them. I used Memorex DVD-R's and they had the dark purple backs which I heard were good. Can someone please help me or should I just return the unit cause this is primarily why we got it to use to record dvd's to take with us or watch later on the players....
Thanks!
Thanks!
