    Hi everybody, I several months ago purchased a Samsung recorder (VR-357) to transfer some of my old VHS tapes to DVD as advertised, yes it did record to DVD but it will only play (or even recognised) on the Samsung, I have tried several other DVD players and several PC's that wont even recognise there is anything on the DVD or play it. Might anybody have any suggestions (other than spell check). Thanks for the chance to get some help

    Boy, I hope it is as easy as that, I will give it a try, thank you for the input, I don't believe there was even a mention of that in the ops manual
