made with other software on a different DVD-R/-RW or DVD+R/+RW

recorder.

If you add data to a DVD-R and DVD+R disc that you have already

recorded to, you might not be able to read the added data under some

Windows 98SE and Windows ME, in Windows NT4 you will need

Service Pack 6 or later to read the data, and in Windows 2000 you will

need Service Pack 2 or later to read it. Some optical media drives

cannot read added data regardless of the operating system.

recording to DVD-R/-RW or DVD+R/+RW discs. If the source drive
