Hi Paul,
 
Just a wild guess here,  but perhaps his dvd player  has some sort of
copyright protection  which prevents  the dvd  being played,  or perhaps
the dvd player doesn't  support   the dvd  encoding used,  i.e.  it is
encoded using  the american  dvd  standard.

Subject: [vicsireland] dvd plays on laptop but not on dvd player


hi folks
wonder have any of ye got a resolve for this.
a friend with a video camera is trying to play video footage on his dvd
player with no success.
1 any video footage he takes is transferred onto a chip on his video camera.

2 he hooks up the video camera or chip and transfers the footage to his
laptop.

3 the footage now saved on the laptop will play on the laptop.

but 

4 the problem arises when he burns the footage onto a blank dvd, he uses a
minus r type. 

the burned dvd will play on his own laptop or anyone elses but it will not
play on his dvd player.

any one any ideas

many thanks.
