Hi all,
I'm in the process of upgrading my computer for DVD Recording. Tonight, we plan on getting a new 60GB HD compared to the current 10GB one. And a new All in Wonder Radeon 64MB AGP card to replace the 8MB Pro version. But, a question.
I'm torn between wich type of DVD Recorder to get. I found a great cheap one in an add a while back, a Panasonic DVD R/Ram Drive for $300's. The DVDRW ones are $500's and a bit out of my current price range.
So, the big question. Since DVD R is playable in most DVD Drives, will it play in my Creative Labs PCDVD12X Drive, or my Sony DVD Player? Exact Model # for the latter is available if needed. Hopefully someone who has a DVD R Drive can help me out here . Because if I can't play it in any of my current machines, no need to get one yet.
Also, is there any difference in picture quality compared to a TV Based DVD Recorder?
Thanks!
