This can be due, among other reasons, to problems and errors that can occur during the creation or recording of DVD and other software and the manufacture of soft- ware discs (including blank discs).

Moreover, because of variations in the quality of discs, this recorder may not be able to record on all discs that bear a DVD-RAM, DVD-R or DVD-RW logo, but you should not encounter difficulty if you use only high quality recordable DVD discs.
