I recorded a TV show from cable TV for later viewing using a DVR with a DVD+RW disc. It recorded fine, but only the machine I recorded it on can even see the files. I am trying to reformat the disc, which results in the show being erased, but due to CPRM ( Copy Protection for Recordable Media), it is not allowing me to do this. I am not trying to make another copy, just get back the use of my re-writable disk. I have tried on several computers as well as on the original DVR device.
I did not use it, apparently the cable tv show did.
 
I'm curious, why would you use, "Copy Protection for Recordable Media" for a DVD RW disc?
