Three options:
- Media poorly supported by unit firmware. Reportedly Sony is not as
picky as NEC, but it's also known for not being able to record some
brands. Poor media support can manifest itself in most bizarre way. Try
another brand, update firmware, etc;
- Recorder hadware defect. The fact that you can record CD does not
exclude the possibility that circuitry engaged during DVD recording is
rotten. Talk to your vendor;
- Bad media batch. Unlike as you apparently tried for example DVD+RW;

^^^^^^^^^^^ It means every word of it.

It's hardly relevant. It's between your unit and media. A.
