Computer file doesn't play on DVD player
Hi, burning a WMV file to a dvd wont work on a standard dvd player due to the format, easiest way to fix the problem is using Nero, and selecting video disc and it will convert the file when it burns the disc to a playable format..
Have a nice christmas

My New DVD Movie Can't Read
Some pc DVD players will only play films from a certain region.
It could also be the video codecs? Search for the all codec packs on the net as sometimes a film wont play unless its got the right codec.
Also some companies dont like people to play films on their computer as they can be ripped to hard drive etc.
Three answers that could the the cause of your problems, sorry i coudlan't be more help :-(

Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because
This is a common error message which means the "codecs" for your dvd decoder are not installed or up to date...DivX codecs can be downloaded and installed in "packs" for your specfic operating system that will remedy the problem.

Burning dvd data
its telling you that the dvd are not being closed, do you wait until the computer tells you its finished before you eject the disk, most lite on dvd's will eject themselves when done.
It want burn any movies that are downloaded.
Hi,
if it,s only downloaded movies, that won,t burn/Write.
I,d assume that the downloaded content, is Copyright Protected.
Other suggestions Are:- your CD/DVD Burner does not support the types of files, that are being downloaded. You could try a Video Converter Program. Or alternatively. Change your DVD Burning Software.
