I have used "plug and burn" to create a DVD. When burnt it will play on my PC using Windows Media Player. However it will not play on my DVD player to TV. After reading i get "no play.
Any ideas>

Nothing wrong with the burn…
It points to using cheap media or media that is not agreeable to your Player.
For your Player you will have to read the manual that came with it to see what the manufacture recommends.
Top media brands are Verbatim & Taiyo Yuden. I don’t buy anything else!
I also recommend you abandon the silly Plug & Burn process AKA, Disaster Waiting and use the Capture and Make DVD that the rest of us use
Using DVD RW media is pretty smart too, until you really know your way around. Since it is reusable it is ideal to learn and experiment with.

hi
I use Sony DVD-RW all the time and have never had any problems using my DVD Player. Which made me think that it was something wrong with the burning Process. What now?

Do I really need to repeat post 2?
There is nothing you can set or change in the burning even if you wanted to… When a disc works one place and does not in another, like yours, it is the media.

Hi Jim
I took your advice and tried another type of disc. I couldn’t locate the types you suggested but instead bought a make called “Verbatmin” and I’m pleased to say this has done the trick. Many thanks for your help
