I have a 17"Al PB and haven't yet managed successfully to play a DVD+RW in
it from my Phillips DVD recorder. It recognises the disc OK and starts to
play but invariably crashes.  My recorder allows me to change a setting in
the recording to aid recognition (I had to do this to successfully get the
DVD+RW recognised on my TiPB) but none of the options get the discs playable
on the 17"Al Superdrive.  If you find a patch, hack, fix or workaround - do
please let me know!
