Panasonic DMRES20D DVD Recorder
I bought the above DVD recorder/freeview tuner a couple of months. it works and plays fine. But recently when I put the dvd recorder timer on, on a few occasions I have got home to see it has not recorded and has a message saying error with disc.
I have reset it and and has worked ok. On some occassions it works fine. It reads the disc and I can even press record and it will record ok, its only when I set the timer that on some, not all, occasions it does not record. I use Sony DVD-RW discs. When I put a new/fresh disc in it always says "disc to be formatted". It formats it and its cool. I have only ever used the one disc which I got when I bought it. I have thrown that away and have formatted a fresh disc, keeping my fingers crossed for the next time I set the timer. Do you think this could be down to a dodgy disc?
