Alright, heres the deal. Theres this guy in Poland who burned me a bunch of his Rap Albums and a Rap Documentary Video. But, He put it all on a single DVD-R. So, on this DVD-R there is 13 Rap Albums and 1 Documentary Video. But, when I put it in my SONY dvd player it says "CONNOT PLAY" and It Doesnt play on My Ps2 or my XBOX. When I put it in my computer, NOTHING happens. Nothing pops up to let me know whats on the disc or anything like that. I want to put those albums on seprate CD-R's and my mp3 player but as I told you already, NOTHING happens when I put it in. The only thing that happens is an arrowglass pops up and then after a few seconds it goes away. Here is what kind of DVD-R I have, this is what it says in order, Top to Bottom on the disc-
TDK
DVD+R
1-16x 4.7GB
Data/Video
RW
DVD+R
ANYONE, PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I CAN DO TO PLAY THE MUSIC AND VIDEO ON THIS DISC. PLEASE HELP ME OUT, IM BEGGIN YOU'S.
Thanks SIncerely Nick

I dont think i have a dvd writer. when the disc is inserted an arrowglass shows up and then goes away and that is all. Nothing after that. I just want to be able to liten to the music that is on it. in the past when i put in a real dvd that is formated for computer use, my computer said that i dont have the software to play a dvd in my computer. but, im just trying to play the music on it. so, what can i do?

When you click on my computer under devices with removable storage double click on the writer you have placed the disc in and see if the files are there

So this is on DVD Media? You will need to have at least a DVD-ROM to read the DVD if it is on DVD media.
If you only have a CD reader/burrner then you will not bebale to accsses the DVD disc.
You do not need a DVD burrner to read the DVD but you do need a DVD-ROM or a DVD Burrner to read the disc.
You can't read a DVD in a CD-ROM

Buy 1 at the store or order 1 off the internet.
That is what your problem is. You need a DVD-ROM or DVD-Burner to read a DVD your CD-ROM is not going to read it.
I would suggest if your gonna spend the money on a DVD-ROM to spend a little bit more and upgrade to a DVD Burner.
You will beable to burn both CD-R's and DVD -/+ R's with a DVD Burner.

If you dont feel comfertible opening up your computer you can get an external DVD burner but that will cost a little bit more.

It is probaly burnt as a data DVD which means your player will not play or read it because it is not DVD complient. Same as your PS2.
If youe Xbox is modded and has XBMC on it then you should beable to use that to play the DVD. But if you dont have a modded Xbox then it will not be compatible with the Xbox either.
If you want the music and video off the DVD then the simplest way is to buy a DVD-ROM or DVD Burner for your computer.
