    Wow,, really wow!!!! Nice job Lance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just watched it for the first time. It really is great. Something that made me think and really the most unexciting portion of it all, for now. But in a few years, the awards ceremony will be the most treasured part of it all. I had no idea that was being recorded, very nice touch and very brilliant to keep it and use it. Thanks for all you have done Lance.

    That's strange because I have never had a problem with and DVD+R I've burned in any of my players (which are several years old). I also have not had any reports of the drag racing videos not playing, except in John Ford's XBox, which serves him right for owning one. :evilsmile)

    I had always heard DVD+R was more compatilble, I guess I bought the propaganda. I did a web search, and according to one website that did extensive testing, DVD-R's played in 93% of players, DVD+R's played in 87% of players. Another site had them at 93% and 89%. So it's not like they are drastically better, but it's good information to have.

    Lance, can you convert it to a mpg file? This type of file should be playable on all computers.

    Talked to John Ford and he bought a new DVD player that specifically says it is Compatible with DVD+R and DVD-R. He said it played fine. Anyway not asking anybody to go out and buy a new DVD player just drawing more of a conclusion it is a compatibility issue. Even some newer players do not specifically play this format. You have to look for one that does. Anyway as mentioned I will work with everybody that has an issue. Pretty much what ever it takes. New Format, New Discs etc.....I will let this ride over the weekend and see what happens as more people get there's. Just another bumpin the road,nothing that can't be solved I promise:yup:
