    I have checked the specs online on the TZ's and see nothing about them being capable of burning MiniDVD's. Dose anyone know. Is this media only for camcorders? I know the Nintendo GameCube used disks that looked like MiniDVD's

    MiniDVDs are just normal DVDs that have been circumsized. As long as you have a tray loading DVD burner, you'll be able to burn MiniDVDs.

    I've just checked on my G11, which I think has the same burner. It recognises my 8cm CD-R and CD-RW but not my 8cm DVD-R. So the 8cm support is there but I think it's the Matsh!ta burner being fussy about its food.
