Hello,
This is my first post on this forum.
2 years ago, I backed up my digital images and some VHS videos onto TDK DVD's. To make them look good, I bought some labelling software and DVD sticky labels from Pressit and printed off some labels with still shots from the videos on them.
About 6 months ago, I tried to retrieve some of my images and I found that I could not read the disc. I tried all my other DVD’s and found the same problem. I had also backed up some videos and images onto Maxell DVD’s and these were fine. I found the problem to exist when i tried the DVD's on different computers too.
I have come to the conclusion that I either had used poor quality discs or maybe the ink on the DVD labels or even the adhesive on the labels had somehow affected the DVD’s.
I have 3 questions:
1. Has anyone come across this problem ?
2. Can anyone recommend a good quality DVD that is reliable ?
3. What is the difference between DVD+ and DVD- and which one is better?
Any responses would be appreciated.
