Why won't my DVD work on a DVD player?

Why does DVD-RW but not DVD-R work in my DVD player?

  • When I burn a DVD using 'Windows DVD Maker' and play it on our DVD player, only a DVD-RW disc works, and none of the six DVD-R discs that I've tried; the player claims 'no disc'. I thought DVD-RW was the trickier format, and that if DVD-RW works, then DVD-R will. Is there something I'm missing? I had trouble inserting a MP3 file to play in the DVD menu also, but replacing it with a WAV fixed the issue on the DVD-RW disc. My next attempt will be to try making the DVD-R without menu audio, but it will be three hours wasted if this is not relevent to the DVD-R issue. Any ideas? Thanks...

  • Answer:

    Were they all from the same batch? I had a cake of DVD+R from Asda a while ago that didn't work in anything.
