over right a DVD????

[DesB]

Forgive me if this has been asked before...
Can you record over a DVD?
I have some DVD+R and some DVD- R discs, that didnt work properly, what I need to know is can you scrub them and re-record over them?
If you can... any chance of an idiot proof way of doing it!
Thanks ...............:moon:

Yeah as hadmad stated, DVD +/-R disks are write once only, if you had a RW disk that had not been closed then it could be wrote over.
