What is the diff. between DVD -R, & DVD +R?

Question

I am trying to burn a mini dvd rw disc home video to a standard size disc. This will allow me to erase the mini dvd rw disc to use again in my camcorder.

Answer 1

The only practical differences I can think of are that -R is slightly more compatible with standalone players but +R loses less space if you're doing multiple writes.

Answer 2

the dvd+r has more space than a dvd-r.

Answer 3

there is really little difference between them it's kinda like VHS and Beta. some drives play and burn both where others are specific.

hope it helps!
