Please read below - I don't appear to be the only one
having this problem - surely it must be possible to burn
a DVD rather than just CD, as the MyDVD soft came with a
Sony DVD burner...

Now to my dilemma. When I try to burn video I've captured
using Sonic MyDVD, it keeps giving me the error: "Wrong
media type. Please insert a recordable CD.". I was trying
to make what I thought would be a DVD disk so I kept
feeding it DVD+R disks to see if it would record the bit
of video that I'd captured from my digital camcorder. I
thought the software had to be mistaken, but, eventually
I inserted a CD-R and it took off burning (imagine that
 ), however, when I put it in my Sanyo stand-
alone it didn't recognize it as a disk.

Anyone know if I can make a true DVD disk with Sonic
MyDVD, or what I did wrong?
 
When you first start a MyDVD project, you're given the option of making
either a VCD or DVD. If you opted for the VCD, that would produce exactly
the results you describe.
