The problem is likely that you are using 8x/2x media. Though the booklet does not say it, the burner does not support anything above 4x for DVD-R and 1x for DVD-RW. Calling their tech support can (possibly) get an update for this problem. Otherwise, the burner cannot use anything but outdated media.
Called the funai's service tech line at 1-800-605-8457. They will sell you a firmware update for 23.00 shipped that will allow it to use up to 8X DVD-RW. I'm using memorex 2X DVD-RW (RITEKW01) I got from walmart. They seem to work OK although dubbing on my deck doesn't seem to work. Probably unrelated.
Bad news guys it is a record speed problem you can only record on dvd-r discs with an 8x speed rating and not good for us but they are now hard to find the lowest out i can find lately is 16x
Re: EWR10D4 firmware Funai will no longer cooperate on this matter. They swear they no longer have the firmware and that there is nothing they can (or will) do for anyone on this. (I have their emails as testament of that.) I can only record (DVD-RW) at 1x-2x. Not even at 4x. I could really use that firmware that by now, surely most that had the upgrade no longer need. If anyone has this, could you make it available to those of us that need it? Thank you in advance.
I am brand new at this. Bought system for $50 last weekend. Is there anything this system can do? I haven't seen a 1X disc in 5 Years. Kind of a coinceadence--> my unit was made in 2009. I still think it is chickenshit they won't even sell the firmware update.

cannot get over to disc format
I have the same problem..... what should I do? get a 1x DVD-R disk?
I have the same problem. I have spent so much money on blank DVD's that I cannot use it's pitiful. It worked great on two DVD's and that was it. What do we do?
I have the saem problem, we can play DVDs but cannot dub. We get E6 and E4 errors. I just got off the phone with the tech support, and according to them it is the recording lense that needs to be cleaned, and worse case is that it is bad. pretty sad since we used this dubbing feature one day, that is it. The system is an Emerson, i would like to pass some knowledge retail wise. When I worked for a company in retail, we steered customers away from Emerson if we could, because the quality sucked and people who did buy emerson would end up returning the product due to poor quality. Buyers be aware!!! We are going to price new systems and screw it wth this one...figures!!!!
ive a ewr10d4 emerson dvd recorder doing the same e24.
Can't find dvd-r 4X anywhere. They've been discontinued. I think Emerson should make their own brand so we can record on these machines. We pay all this money for them and then can't get
dvd 4X for them anymore.
No Storage device located message displays when I try any kind of recording or try to access previously recorded shows
