Hello,

I am sure this has been asked several times different ways but I am far from a tech-ie and I need to address my question as it relates to me ...Please I hope someone can help!

I putrchased a "flip" camera and download all my videos to my computer then utlized movie maker saved to my computer and then purchased Roxio MYDVD and created several DVD's....worked BEAUTIFULLY!

During one evening I was watching Home Shopping and purchased a JVC DR-MV80B DVD video recoder and started recording like crazy--BTW love it.

Here is the problem-I tried to play all the DVD's I previously burnt (and still plays on other machines) and it will not play on this machine.  There is a message that says "disc error".  It works in my other DVD players.

Is there something I need to check or know when burning the DVD's so it will work on all DVD players?

I am using DVD+R

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

What does the User Manual on your JVC say about what DVD's it will play, maybe it won't play DVD+R's.

It states it it will play DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM and so on...

Anybody else have any ideas????

According to the specs for the recorder:

Supported Digital Video Standards: DivX


Maybe that means it will only play video in the DivX format. Can the unit play commercial DVDs?

Some DVD players are just very sensitive to different types of discs, or brands, and how they have been burned.

If your new JVC plays commercial DVD's ok then you are going to have to live with it.

There is no "option" (in Roxio) to check that will make it work on ALL DVD players.

Yes it plays commercial DVD's.  It seems very strange that a newer model DVD player would not play a burnt DVD using ROXIO software whille an EXTREMLEY older model player plays a burnt DVD using Roxio software?  NO?

I took my camcorder to CVS and they created a DVD and it works fine?
