Burn to R/W DVD or R-only DVD

My DVD combo unit reads and can burn Read- or Read/write DVDs and CDs.

Music, of course, won't work on a standard in-car or in-house CD player if
it's burned to a re-usable R/W CD...has to be burned to a (one-use)
Read-only CD.

How about DVDs. I want to create, then play them in the in-house (compoent)
DVD player in the living room. Do I have to burn a "project" (I think
that's what they call an edited movie) to a read-only DVD, or can I burn and
change and re-burn to a R/W DVD...seems that'd be a lot less expensive.

Thanks,
George
 
just to add... you do not burn the "project" to a dvd. the project is
simply a file that helps moviemaker keep track of all the parts of your
movie. after you have finished creating your movie, you create a movie file
with moviemaker and then import that finished movie to any of a number of
DVD authoring programs.
you may already know all that, but it sounded like you were heading in
the wrong direction.
