tschultzpiano Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 My DVD player won't play my newly burned DVD. I have 3 DVD players in my house, and actually only one of them will play it. Shouldn't burned DVDs play in any player??? I'm getting frustrated, because I thought I was finally successful! It also won't play in my Playstation 2. I'm using a Memorex DVD+R ... I don't know if this really affects it. If you say that is the solution, if I go out and buy better disks - DVD-R??? - is this guaranteed to play in my DVD players then?? I burned .Vobs will all the proper .ifo and .bup files, etc. I thought everything should work..but it's not.

mmalves Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 Try with Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden blanks. Also try burning at 4x to see if you get a better burn.

Older stand alone players can have problems playing burned discs. How old are those that won't play? -R media worked better for me in the old time when my DVD player had issues playing burned discs.

They aren't too old..maybe a few years at the most. The one that does work is fairly new I believe. When you used -R media, did it always work? Does anyone know if I use -R media if it will work for sure in my DVD players? Or what a way is to make sure it works?
Cynthia Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 Buy a small package with 10 discs of -R Verbatim or similar good quality brand. The only way to know if it works in your players, is to try. It could also be worth to run a cleaning disc in the players. They do attract dust.
