dvd-r

[savtoo]

Hi all,
Can anyone help me out please. Have been looking at alot of reviews latelybut am puzzled about one thing.
They say plays, dvd-r/dvd-rw (in video mode)?
What does that acctualy mean, in video mode?
If anybody could give some clarity on this please, would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks.
Kind regards.

well you can wright to these discs as either data discs or video discs etc. so in this case it supports video mode only. ie like coping a film to dvd-r. you couldnt copy a word file and expect your dvd player to read it. thats what it means
