Rewrite DVDs.

I would just over record what I want. The system should ask you what you want to do. Maybe you can erase what is on the DVD, but I never try to do it....

Nero is the probably the bestest software for writing and re-writing CD's and DVD's... Well its not a better option to rewrite DVD's at all, Better you buy some Writable DVD's instead of DVD-RW as DVD-RW don't work for more than 5 times and also cost of DVD-RW would be more than 5 times as of DVD-Writable. And DVD-Writable will store your data permanantly so that you can use it in future too... Cheers And have a nice day...

Most DVD recording programs have the facility for this, usually in the form of a packet writing utility. I tend to use Nero, which has the option in the recorder menu to erase a disk. I remember the same facility in Roxio, although it is a long while since I have used this program and cannot remember where the setting is. Whichever program you are using should have the option, so it is a simple matter of checking the settings or having a quick look at the help menu.

I am not really good with this type of stuff but my DVD Recorder/Player has a menu that I can go in and select to erase what was recorded and then record on it again...that is as long as I didn't "finalize" the disk...once it is finalized then it is done - can't record anymore after the movie/program or on top of...
