If this is video you are trying to burn, perhaps it was burned in the wrong format for your standalone player to read. Most of the video content I have is either .avi, .mov, .divx, etc. I use a program called DVD Flick to convert the files to a format that can be viewed on my standalone player. ________________reply separator________________________ From: "Christy" <poppy0206@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- dvd burner Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2009 22:44:05 -0400 I thought that I had burned a DVD that would show on a tv/dvd player and it did not work. It only worked on my computer. I made it with my new laptop. Dont know what I could have done wrong. when asked, I selected to play on a tv (type to burn). christy any clues what happened? Also I thnk I have lite scribe labeling. Has anyone used this and do I need special dvd's for this ? christy thanks, --------------------------------------------------------------- Please remember to trim your replies (including this sentence and everything below it) and adjust the subject line as necessary.
