A19JFO Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Burned a file to DVD + R, verified, wont play in DVD player, but will in PC DVD player?
dbminter Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Probably depends on what "file" you burned. What was it? If it was a video file like an AVI, you only created a data DVD. The PC DVD player is probably designed to play both standard DVD Video discs and PC video file types. (One annoying thing those players often do is hijack the video file types extensions from what the PC previously had them set at. WinDVD used to NOT do it, but DOES with the latest 2011 version. Divx 8 does, too.) If by file, you mean you burned a DVD image file like an ISO, then, you'd have to check the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer and see if there's a folder called VIDEO_TS. If it's not there, then, a standalone DVD player definitely will most likely not play it. (Some players may be designed to play video files like Divx discs.) Also, are you sure your DVD player supports DVD+R discs?
mmalves Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Please post the log from when you burned that disc.

A19JFO Posted October 26, 2011 Author Posted October 26, 2011 I dont know what I've done, but I tried it again, and it works fine this time. It's a long process though. Twice as long as DVD Santa( When it works)! Thanks everybody, it looks as if I wasted your time, cheers.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Burning is burning, it can't be taking twice as long unless you're burning at half the speed!
