Is Field Of Dreams one of the disks that is heavily scratched? Scratches also give bad read/bad sector errors.

If the disks you are using are dvd+r, then you need to set 'book typing', as that will trick your dvd player into thinking the dvd is a 'dvd rom' and may play it then. Even if it's a cheap one....nothing wrong with that!!

Sounds like you have a bad disc.

99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

I find that discs of all flavors work better in my "el cheapo" player than in my expensive player
