Mark, In light of the success I have had writing DVDs with the Kodak DVD+R brand (and failure using the Staples DVD-R brand), I'd like to hear what type(s) of DVDs you have been successful with and which ones possibly have been failures. As you know, we have exactly the same burner and firmware although I am running RSJ 6.0 under eCS 1.2MR and you, if I understood correctly, are using RSJ 5.53 under eCS 2.0RC2.
