Yes. The DVD Multi specification requires that DVD Multi Recorders read and write DVD-ROM (prerecorded), DVD-R (General), DVD-RW and DVD-RAM discs. Because the PX-850 conforms to the DVD Multi specification, it can read and write the formats used by today's computers and consumer electronic (CE) DVD devices. (Note that DVD Multi does not prescribe that devices should accommodate DVD-RAM cartridges or 8-cm discs.)
