I have A TDK DVD-R DVD-RW. I tried to copy a copied dvd. It worked but I can only watch it on my P.C and on my playstation. When I put it into my DVD palyer it says DISC ERROR. What do i have to do in order to make it work on my DVD player.
maybe your player isnt compatible with the type of dvdr your using,check it out with this chart:http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers
Firstly, is the disc a -R or a -RW? Most stand alone players prefer -R or +R discs. Is it a new or old player? A lot of older ones have problems playing 'home-burnt' discs. Search the web for your model player to see if you can find if it is compatible with -R, -RW, +R or +RW. Adder.
Some older players cannot read rewritables (RWs). If your disk is a +R or -R, maybe it's the way you burn them. If using Nero, choose 'DVD-Video' when burning. Some DVD players won't recognize UDF format.
Here is a good dvd carousel player that I own by Sony; I haven't had any issues with it playing dvd-r, dvd+r or dvd+rw; I haven't tried a dvd-rw but, am sure it will be fine; also, plays mp3's and of course vcd's nicely too. http://www.epinions.com/pr-Sony_DVP-NC665P_S_DVD My old Pioneer dvd player (3 years old) hiccups here and there with some of the newer technology. Sounds like it's time for an upgrade. ... gotta love that; justification for the wife?? Good luck.
It is not my dvd player because it plays the copies that they lend to me. those are DVD-R and that is what i use.
