DVD Problem with SP2

[Jim Stewart]

Since installing SP2 the computer will not recognize that
a DVD has been inserted. It does recognize audio CDs in
the same divice, but not DVDs since SP2 went in. Worked
just fine before. It changed some setting and I would
like to know if anyone can tell me how to set it back.
This is NOT a MS firewall issue. ALL PROGRAMS work OK.
Thanls!

In Windows Explorer, right-click the drive letter, click
PROPERTIES|AUTOPLAY tab. Select DVD MOVIE, and review the options.

Looks like this worked - Thanks!! I changed the default
to automatically start playing instead os "always ask"
and it works.

Similar problem. after loading xp sp2 i can no longer burn data to dvd using
windows explorer. I can burn movies to dvd using other manufacturer software
but not win exp. It will let me store temp files for burning but when i go to
write files to disk it does not recognized the dvd media. Already tried
setting default to open with media player but it still does not recognize
blank dvds.

:

XP's inbuilt burning engine has never been able to burn DVDs, no matter
the SP applied. Roxio, nero or some other DVD burning software has
always been required.
