A VERY GENERAL rule of thumb would be to use DVD-R format discs. These in my experience, will play on most of the OLDER type stand alone players. As disc technology has improved the older players can't keep up.

Now here's the confusing part, if you have a DVD burner in your PC that can "book type" then this method can literally convert the DVD+R format disc to a ROM disc. This fools the player into thinking that the disc IS the original format. DVD-R's cannot be book typed.

If your hungry for more info, then try the link below......

Got what you needed? if not then type in book typing or variations of words into the Search function. Happy reading.

Cheers.
