News of DVD Writers

Anyone familiar with this machine? I've got some issues.

Hi guys.
I have a liteon SOHW-1633S model, and I upgraded the firmware to the latest from www.liteonit.com... well, the problem is that it doesn't recognize the BENQ DVD-R 4.7 GB as a dvd. My computer keeps recognizing it as a blank CD.

when I try to burn 4 gb, it says there is not enough room (obviously), but I can't make it read as a normal DVD.

What ...

I am about to purchase the Plextor PX-712A 12xDVD+ 8xDVD- 4xDVD+/-RW 16xDVD 48x24x48x CD-RW. Is there anything I should know about it before I go, is there any problems, any firwamre issues. Anything to do with different versions of the drive released.
Thanks

Are there any known issues with the DRU-710A? After installing mine, it doesn't recognize any typr of media.

Purchased Sony DRU-710A. Installed drive and whenever I insert a blank disc, the drive doesn't recognize it with Nero. Any ideas?

I just wanted to know if CDRLabs had a Plextor PX-716A drive to review?

Can I make the hp movie writer works on a Mac G4? I've just got one and it is very poor on printed info. Help would be appreciated.

Anyone knows what is the TLA number of 716UF @ Plextor Online Shop?

And what's the deal with the colors units now? only color faceplates? what happened there? Colors dont sell?

Anyone else get the feeling this was heavily sponsored by Panasonic?
