Hi guys!

I've got a problem. A week ago a watched a movie on a DVD-R and it worked perfectly (as it always does). Today I tried to watch a normal DVD and the player showed me the message "error"! I tried another dvd...and there was the same problem: "error". I put again the DVD-R in and it worked! What the hell is the problem??? Does somebody know a solution? Thx...

I do know exactly what the problem

Consumer DVD-R's are not reliable media they are not as good as Commercial DVDs. I do test and find manufacturing problems with commercial discs as well This is what causes theses isues on DVD-Rs:

- Burner beam slightly off centered
- Cheap media also got off centered tracks
- Player with single beam unable to recover off track target layer

What you can do:
- Copy DVD-R to another DVD-R media
- Use brands like: Verbatim, Memorix, Prodisk
- Use known good burner

thank you berny, but I allready took a look at the support page!
King, the problem is different! I can watch the DVD-R movie without problems. I can also listen to CDs or watch the Bonus DVDs of Commercial DVDs!! But I can't watch the main movie DVD! I've got no clue... But thank you again!
