What should I do if I cannot write data to DVD media?
This Q & A entry applies to selected models only. See the online Specifications to see whether your model is equipped with
an optical disc drive capable of DVD writing.
❑
Make sure you are using the correct DVD recordable media.
❑
Check which DVD recordable format is compatible with your computer's built-in DVD recorder. Note the possibility that
some brands of DVD recordable media do not work.
❑
The preinstalled software on your computer does not support copying DVD movies. Macrovision or a similar video
protection technology prevents users from copying DVD movies. Copying a DVD movie would be a copyright infringement
and therefore illegal.
