When I first purchased my Sony VX500 DVD/VHS recorder, I also purchased about 100 blank DVD-R disc (made by Sony). They all worked well. I recently purchased another batch of blank dics. Same brand same speed etc. They did not work. I could see by the front of the blank disc that Sony had chnged manufacturers. I just purchased a batch of Memorex disc. Same problem. The VX500 will not record on it either.
When I put these newer blanks in the recorder. The recorder says Please wait will disc is loading. After that message goes off the red light indicates that the media is in the machine and ready to record. But... it does not record. The recording timer says it's recording but it's not.
But if I put one of my older Sony blanks in the machine they do record.
Anyone have any ideas on my problem?
Thank you for your time.
