Hi,

Is MorphOS supposed to have problems with Combo DVD/CD-RW drives? These problems might occur by DVD viewers and CD Burning applications.

AFAIK
Using a Beta of Burnit3 Pro for MOS you should be able to use most any combo drive out there for burning cd and DVD!!! Playback of DVD is another story. Mplayer is very sensitive what drives it likes. I personally use a LG 8161B DVD Rom drive and it works great on encypted cds!

A combo drive is a DVD-ROM with CD-R/W, not a DVD burner.

Problem what I have is writing/reading CDRWs. CDR works perfect.
