I don't know where else to ask or post... I have an LG dvd drive. It has no problem playing commercial DVDs and even DVD-R, but is stubborn and stuck on trying to read DVD+R. Problem is that most of the stuff I have (homevideos) are on DVD+R... any suggestions?

try the disks on another pc, and if they're fine then buy yourself a new drive! i don't think they're that expensive - just make sure it's specifically compatible with +R.
Also try experimenting with other brands of disk as there are differences in manufacturing quality, although this won't help with your current disks.
Finally you could do away with disks all together. Rip them to HDD round a friends house maybe?

You may also want to have a look around the CD freaks website, they are a very useful source for firmware, fixes, limitations etc... etc..
