Just had all kinds of fun doing just this. In my case all the discs burned on one DVD burner completely failed to work in the Mk4 drive. Switched to another machine and burned one disc on that and it worked first time. No idea what the differences between the drives are - apart from 5 years in age, but the newer one worked just fine.
