As stated so eloquently:

Pls Help - cannot get copy of DVD to work on DVD player

I have an Intel HT PC with Windows XP. It has a CD/DVD Reader and
writer. It is fairly new.

I was trying to make a copy a DVD.

After copying the DVD will not work on a DVD player.
It says "cannot play"

However the copied DVD will work on the same PC as well as on another
PC.
Why is that ?

I have used both an erasable DVD as well as a Non erasable DVD. Both do
not work on DVD players.

Can anyone pls help ?

I am not Technical so pls explain in more detail for folks like me.
Thanks'
Ava


Most of the time it is the media you use. Many of the DVD players cannot
read the data from cheaper DVD-R's.

First, try playing the disc in several of your friends DVD players. If it
still won't play, try burning on a better quality DVD-R.

You can find lots of information on the internet about burning DVD's.
Just Google for "burning" "DVD" "copying", and read, read, read!

Hope this helps,
