Trouble reading discs

[JamesM]

My MBP 2.33Ghz has always been funny with discs but its starting to become a pain, a friend burnt a disc for me the other day which it read but thought it was blank.

Last night I put a +R DL DVD that worked in another machine and it just ejected it, I then put my 10.5 disc in and it worked fine.

Any ideas?

Sounds like a hardware issue with the superdrive. Take it to an applestore so they can repair it.

Not going to pay to get it repaired, I'm considering upgrading after the annoucement at the end of the month.

Was just hoping it might have been something that could be fixed via software.
