I have some DVD-ROMs that I burned on a WintelPC using the SONY
DRU-510A mechanism. Some of the DVDs are DVD-RW, some are DVD+RW
and some are DVD+R. All of these DVDs are readable on the drive
that burned them and a combo DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive on the computer
that burned them. The drive is a relatively new Plextor PX-320A.
They were burned using Veritas' RecordDX under Windows XP, Service
Pack 1.
I tried to read these DVD-ROMs on two different Macs without
success. One was a 3 year old Blue & White G3 (Yosemite class
machine) and the other a 450 MHz "Cube". I believe the firmware on
both machines are up to date.
Question .. Is there anything I can, in terms of software, device
drivers or firmware upgrades that I am not familiar with to
facillitate the reading of these DVD-ROMs on these Macs? I fear
that the drives are just not capable of reading these newly burned
DVDs.
