Panasonic DMR-E50 won't recognise blank DVD's only

My Panasonic DMR-E50 won't recognise blank DVD's so I am unable to record. I have tried using the DVD-RW discs by Tesco and by Packard Bell and whilst the Packard Bell discs provoke a "No Disc" message, the Tesco discs provoke a "Read Only" message when I try to record. The recorder will however recognise and record on a Maxell DVD-RAM disc in a Cartridge. The recorder will also read and play purchased pre-recorded DVD's. Also, the remote control had locked before this point (message on recorder said REMOTE DVD 1 but I managed to unlock this by holding the power button and number 1 simultaneously for 5 seconds. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!! Thanks

Bought my DMR E-50 from a boot fair for a tenner, with a broken door flap, which I repaired. It records and plays perfectly, but likes Philips and Verbatim DVD-R and Panasonic RAM for recording. As above, you can't use DVD-RW in this machine.

You can only record to dvd-ram or dvd-r NOT dvd-rw!
