The Philips media can be acceptable or crappy depending on which manufacturer made it.

The three common causes for burns not being readable in standalones, etc. are:

Using poor quality media.
Burning too fast.
Firmware not up to date.

Good quality media is that made by Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim, and made in Japan labeled Fuji and Sony disks.

A good rule of thumb is to limit the burn speed to 1/2 or less of the rated speed of the media.

Updated burner firmware can be located at the vendor's web site or here:

^^ Everything he said is correct.

Personally, I would dump those discs and get some new quality media.
