I have created a thread containing all the information, please see my thread: DVD not playing on PC or Sony DVD player

Thanks Cynthia, I did as you said, and it is the PAL format, so I googled PAL vs. NTSC and found the below info from http://www.michaeldvd.com.au/Articles/PALv...C/PALvsNTSC.asp "At their heart, DVDs are merely carriers of data files with compressed audio-visual information contained therein. This information can be placed on DVD in one of two resolutions; 720 x 576 pixels (PAL DVDs), or 720 x 480 pixels (NTSC DVDs), and with various frame rates (24, 25, and 30 frames per second are common). The DVD player itself takes this data file and formats it appropriately for display in either PAL or NTSC." I am new to this so please guide me, my interpretation of this is that I can set the format of the data to either PAL or NTSC before writing the image to the DVD, or is it before creating the image?

How can I determine between PAL & NTSC material?

The only different DVD player I have right now is the Playstation 3, I tried it there and got an error "Video in the PAL broadcast standard is not supported". I will have to try it at a friends house, if it works there would you suggest that I get another DVD player? If yes, which player would you recommend? Thanks v. much!

Hey Juandan, I am having a similar problem with a home Sony DVD player, the DVD drive in my laptop is a Pioneer DVD+RW DR-K17Y ATA Device. After burning the DVD plays on my laptop, but not on my home player. Any advice?

Still no luck wiht home DVD player after using Verbatim DVD+R with 1x write speed. see logs... I 11:39:24 ImgBurn Version 2.4.1.0 started! I 11:39:24 Microsoft Windows Vista Business Edition (6.0, Build 6000) I 11:39:24 Total Physical Memory: 2,086,732 KB - Available: 1,468,912 KB I 11:39:24 Initialising SPTI... I 11:39:24 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 11:39:27 Found 1 DVD

Verbatim DVD+R it is, thanks again everyone!

Could that be the problem? I have duplicated a DVD before using the Memorex DVD-R, and it works in the Sony DVD player. Actually I only have about 4 more so I will purchase some more on Friday, what media do you recommend getting?

Thanks... The DVD is now playing fine on the PC using Media Player Classic Any hope for playing it on the stand alone DVD player?

Thanks v. much for the warm welcome! When opened in windows explorer there are two folders: AUDIO_TS (no files inside) and VIDEO_TS (9 files inside including VIDEO_TS.IFO). I am using windows media player, below is the error I am getting: Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try lowering your screen resolution and color quality settings.

Memorex DVD-R wont play after successful image write. What can I do to fix this? I 08:05:09 ImgBurn Version 2.4.1.0 started!
