Can dvd-r disks be changed to use by dvd recorder which uses dvd+ disks?

Question

I have LOTS of brans new dvd-r disks. Anything I can do short of getting rid of these disks or getting a different machine?

Mine is JVC and annoying as it loses the thumbnail pic on finalizing. I have to TYPE in each letter painstakingly or each recording is just assigned a number that's it. Disgusting.

If a different machine, do you know of DVD recorders that will give me a final thumbnail and uses DVD-?

Which type is most common? DVD-r or DVD+r?

Ooops lots of questions.

Thanks

Answer 1

No. But I thought all DVD recorders worked with both DVD+ and DVD-

I think DVD- is more common.
