| my dvd-r's dont play in my dvd-/+r/rw dvd players
ive burned backups of my dvds before and they have been successful, until i recently bought a pack of 50 dvd-r's Fuji Film. and i tried to burn them the same way i copy bfore then (Anydvd -> DVD Shrink -> Copyto DVD) they bun successfully with no errors, but when i try to play them in my dvd players, it doesnt recognize the disc is there i either get "No Disc" or "the disc is dirty" and it only just started happening with these new dvd-r's i got. does anyone have a clue what is wrong? |

could be the cds in general. Not all dvds are the same. try a different brand
if you made other copies with other brands, and they work fine. then its a brand issue.
if none of the back ups worked, then you know what the issue is  | |

the dvd PLAYER might be the problem. Do the DVDs run on your computer?
EDIT: by shrinking the data on the DVD, the DVD players might not be able to read it.
