    Nero DVD-Video : Book-Type DVD-ROM?

    hi guys,
    does anybody know if this option is better to be selected in Nero (i got 6.3.0.2) or not? i see nero force it to be selected, but i'd appreciate some tips...thanx

    PS: seems like i started to make a lot of coasters in these last days....i got a doubt...could it be possibile that's because i tried to select as target size from shrink or recode as well 4,472MB instead of default DVD5 size (4,464 for shrink or 4,459 for recode)?? i mean is it better to have 24-30MB free at the end of the DVDR?

    The book type can only be used on a few makes of writer. Ricoh (the first and main one), some NEC, QSI and a make called Nutek.

    It makes the disc a DVD ROM and so players that don't work with DVD+ will work. I got my Panasonic E50 Recorder working with DVD+RW even though it doesn't work normally. It makes the disc more compatible with more players.

    It sounds like you have a drive that works with bitsetting. There is no harm in using it. A +RW disc will still be a RW afterwards.

    I have used DVDInfoPro to change a +RW to DVD ROM after burning.

        The old versions had a tickbox that could be on or off. Now Nero makes a DVD+ to a DVD ROM automatically.
