This essentialy means that no lead-in [nor lead-out] was recorded, which
is why the media is inaccessible in any system.

Do try more media brands...

Take for habit not to leave room for misinterpretation or leading
questions. "ruined media"? What kind of media? Must be DVD+R, but I
don't want to assume *anything*. "just at the beginning"? "just" is way
