i have a lite-on 1693s dvd burner that won't read the newer dvd movies. it seems that if the dvd is more than 4.7 gb my drive won't read it or even recognize there is a disk in the drive. it plays movies that are less than 4.7 gb with no problem. the drive is suppose to play dual layer dvd's. running xp sp2. any suggestions would be appreciated. reinstalled drive, upgraded firmware. r. schram
Are you talking about commercial movies, or home brew movies? If home movies, you either have a bad burn, or your burner needs a firmware update, or it may be a bad burner, even if it is new.
new store bought dvd. it reads store bought dvd if it is less than 4.5 gb with no problem. Its the larger file dvd that it won't recognize. it is suppose to read dl dvd's. upgraded firmware and reinstalled drive. r. schram
