while in Windows NT4 you will need Service Pack 6 or later, and in
Windows 2000, you will need Service Pack 2. In addition to this, some
DVD-ROM and DVD-ROM / CD-R/RW drives cannot read this added
data regardless of the operating system.

utility.

recording to DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL or
DVD+RW media - if this is not the case then the source disc might not
