How did you burn the dvd?  It should automatically finalize it for you.  You can check the disc in the Disc and Device Utility under the Tools section to see if it is not finalized. Just because it won't play in a player does not mean it was not finalized.  Sometimes players aren't happy with certain media or the way they were burned.  Also, some players only like +R and some -R.

Normally one does not use Classic for anything that is going in a DVD Player. It can be done, but you have to know what you are doing!
