Greetings!
I just recently got a Samsung DVD Recorder (actually, it's Toshiba drive... go figure). Since I don't have any blank DVDs, I tried blank CDs (TDK 8x and Samsung 52x) to test out the drive. The drive has trouble recognizing that there's a blank CD in the "cup holder" and flashes the panel light. If I re-insert the CD two or three times, the drive behaves normally and I can record the CD without problems.
It also hangs up on manufactured CDs, but plays nice with DVDs. I tried this drive on my Windows XP system, and it has the same problems.
Is this normal for DVD recorders? Or does my new drive hate CDs?
Only with broken ones. :)
Thanks!
