A friend has lent me some D VD's recorded off air to copy. 1 of them can't be read by either of the DVD re-writers in my computer, or the two drives I have in my hobby room. The TV DVD re-writer comes back to tell me that they are empty, the TV DVD player does not come up with a play list. The first time this happened (4 D VD's ago) he told me that it had not been finalized. He took it back and finalized it and it worked fine when he brought it back for me.
All the D VD's are RW, but he is under the impression that if he finalizes them he will not be able to re-write them.
In all the years I have used re-writable disks (CD or DVD) I have been able to erase them and start again.
Can anyone help please?
