DVD-R or DVD+R ??
 

I am soon getting a Sony DRU500A. I'm confused as to which DVD format to use for backing up my PS2 games amd my DVD movies. I am in Australia which has PAL if that makes a difference. I thought games were -R and movies were +R but after reading here I see people are using -R for movies. Which format do I use?
Also does DVD X Copy do both formats?:confused:

It depends on what version ps2 you have. If you have a v5 or higher, +r will work fine. Check here to see what version you have. You can use either type of media for dvd movies. If you are going to use your ps2 as your dvd player, either media will do, but +r will probably only work if you have a v5 or higher. Dvdxcopy supports both types of media.

Thanks for your help. I will probably try using -R as it is half the price here than the +R.:)

Good choice. I am not a big fan of +r media either.:)
