See if you can get RITEK or DVDMaster. Alternatively if you can walk into a shop and site the dvdr pick any brand that have a dark purple burn surface, The darker the better. Be cautios about verbatim as I had serious snags with them. Ordered five and got five coasters!! Two crapped out in mid burn!! the only two out of about 200 burns. A mate convinced me that I just got a bad batch so ordered another five and got same results. If you can get them then Traxdata, DVDMaster or RITEK are top DVDR's and should give you no probs at all.

Good luck!!!!
