dvd+r problem

Hi,
I have a 'alba RDVD1002' recorder. I bought a couple of TDK non scratch dvd+rw discs. There was also a dvd+r disc which came with the recorder. All three discs worked ok until recently, but I'm having problems now.
1)I am unable to access two of the discs at all.
2)One of the other discs:- unable to program, as the menu just shows one item as recorded in a 'finalised' format - thus I cannot erase or record.
The recorder is working fine on the dvd+r format.
please advise

DVD+R discs are write once

DVD+R discs are write once only, so if that's the one that's finalized, you can't erase it or modify its contents.

DVD+RW discs are eraseable. Check the DVD player menu for an option to format or erase the discs.

There seems to be a kind of 'freezing', I press 'enter' as per usual which enables the menu but the recorder/disc refuses to respond.

The unit may need to be reset

The unit may need to be reset. Have you tried unplugging it for a while and plugging it back in? It may not solve the actual problem, but it may at least get you back in to the menu.
