Well I think it would be much simpler here just run it through the Wizard & screw it in.Of course that would be if it was an arcoss bulb nah better run it through DvdD in file mode first just to be sure.Then again if it is an avi bulb that is a whole different ball game.Better post a log so we can take a look at it.
