Can dvd burners actually play dvds? Mine has a new excuse for every dvd for why it won't play it. Not a single dvd has played on it, but the excuse is different almost every time.
your burner didn't come with any software like PowerDVD? that is what I use. There are free players out there that you can download .. a good one is VideoLAN. I hear good things about it. http://www.videolan.org/
I hate excuses...LOL Is your firmware current? Are you trying to play originals or backups? Another good player is Media Player Classic...plays all kinds of stuff. http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_players/media_player_classic.cfm
Thanks. VideoLAN did the trick. I was naive enough to think that Media Player or Real Player would do it. If you can't tell, I don't watch a lot of dvds.
