It will be either that you have not formatted the disc or that you are using the wrong type of disc. You will need a DVD+RW on a + machine or DVD-RW on a - machine. Most recorders will playback the other type but not record on it.

EXT1 is not an error - that message means that the dvd player is on input "EXT1" - so it is trying to display whatever is connected to EXT1 in the back of your DVD player, whether it is a cable/sat box, another vhs player, etc. The message may be getting displayed for a number of reasons - but, if you put in an incompatilbe/unfinalized disc type, and it is not able to play that disc, it may default to EXT1 b/c it is searching for some type of usable signal.
The MRV700VR is only compatible with certain discs types - and the disc types that you are trying to insert must also be finalized discs. I would reccomend only using the compatible disc types listed in your user's manual - some of them are getting harder-to-find. 16x discs are very iffy with this machine. 8x discs are best.
I have the full user's manual, so I can give you any more details that you request.

Here is a link to the manual:
http://www.m4c.magnavox.com/files/m/mrv700vr_17/mrv700vr_17_dfu_aen.pdf
It specifically lists disc types that you cannot use to record - it specifically states that you can't use DVD-R discs for recording on this unit. DVD+R or DVD+RW are the only disc types you can use for recording on this unit.

Well since you can still play the unfinalized discs in your replacement dvd recorder. I would suggest hooking up another recorder to the output of the Phillips DVDR343V/37, then simply play it back and record with the VCR. Now record it back into dvd format by reversing the two (by hooking up Phillips DVDR343V/37 to the video output of the vcr) Now you can finalize DVD to Phillips DVDR343V/37. Probable with a little video picture degradation but something has to give in situations like yours. Good luck, hope that helps.
