Your DVD player might not be able to play the DVD because it might not
support DVD +/- R/RW media. However there are new DVD players that you may
be able to get at pretty much any store that sells electronics. I checked at
some places and I found some pretty decent ones at Fry's Electronics about
$20.

what format did the movie you burned use? e.g. DivX, svcd. most players wont
recognise divx format. you can reformat the movie file and reburn it to a
format that works on your player. try using TS_svcd format. that works on
most players.

o.k. i use dvd clooner to burn dvd's. it works great, the movies play on all
dvd players. i bought a new computer, an e-machine with a pentium 4, multi
format dvd+/-rw, whatever. still no problems burning. but then, i noticed the
dvd player in the bedroom stopped playing the new disc's i burned. read no
disc error. so i burn on several different types of dvd's. no change. all the
other dvd players can still read them. so i use my friends computer, he has
the same program. i use the same dvd+r. everythings the same excect the
computer. i burn it, pop it in to the dvd player in the bedroom it works . i
watch the movie, i cry, eventful. i burn the same movie from my computer,same
everything. it wont play in the bedroom. why? i've checked the setttings as
much as i can or know. what is my drive doing different from his drive? can
it be reset or can i never watch movies in bed again?
the dvd player in the bedroom still plays all the old movies i burned with
my old computer.

See if there is a firmware update for the dvd drive in your new
computer. If there is, apply it and see if that helps.
