dvd+r

Hi,

Have bought DVD+R from the US and I can't seem to run it on my DVP520 dvd player. I have unlocked it and still it won't play. Any advice please.

Thanks:o

    Hi, is this a commercial disc or bought from an individual, the only reason I can think of for it not reading the disc is that the disc has not been finalised. If the disc plays but does not give the correct sound/picture then thats something different . eg NTSC system etc..

    Is your player capable of playing a +R disk?

    Some players will only accept -R disks which I think is generally european standard.

    I thought all players were +-R both nowadays.

    Private burnt DVDs will often be fussy with which players they will work with, if the laser it was burnt with is slightly out of line.
