LG352SC DVD Recorder disc format problem

Hi,
Can any one help?
I have an LG352sc Recorder which I would highly reccomend for around the £100 mark. It has many good features although it's a bit clumsy to use.
My problem is that I have tried ASDA's own DVD+r's which I am assured are Verbatim and they are not even recognised. I then purchased Maxell DVD+r's and although they are recognised and I am able to record onto them from the built in HD, when I then go to play them on the recorder, even though they are finalised, the HR352 will ask whether I want to format and will not play the burnt disc. They do play OK on a DVD player.
To save trying LOADS before arriving at a solution, is this fairly commonplace with recorders? Would I fare much better with DVD-r's or is it more likely to be the disc manufacturer or do I have a faulty DVD recorder?
Any suggestions?

The manual should tell you wether or not it works with + or - dvdr's
DONT use rewritables
My only recommendation is to use DATAWRITE TITANIUM discs. Theyre the ONLY ones ive used thus far that have worked with every piece of equipment ive tried them with (And ive tried loads!)
best of luck:idea:0 -
Manual says DVD-RAM/+RW/-RW/+R/-R/
I have successfully used DVD+rws and after burning, the recorder DOES recognise it but alot of DVD players wont play them.
