DVD won't play movie

[Yala]

I had my movie placed on a CD it wouldn't play in my DVD player. So I bunred
it on to a DVD and it still won't play my movie.
What's wrong?

Movies & cds dont do well together,thats why dvds exist.Try running the
movie thru WM encoder (convert),once thru,retry moving to a dvd.

>I made two identical three minute normalized DVDs from a VCR, recorded with my SONY DVD-VCR combo recorder. No problem playing them at home.

(a) DVD+ RW
(b) DVD-RW

Placed them in the computer CD drives and tried to uploads them to my
acting profile on to internet with my agent .
The agent site provides a BROWSE function but I don't see anything useful in
my drivers or anywhere else.

I have a new DEL XP computer with two CD drives. D & E.

Puting the DVD in either one did not provide anything that I can upload
I actually uploaded usless files. What does an uploadable video file look
like?
Any Ideas? thanks peter

I followed the instructions on the wed site. I made the movie under the movie
maker program and I followed the instructions on the help web site and burned
it to my DVD RW/ CD RW drive, using the option DV. I can play my CD and DVD
on my computer but all it says on my duel DVD-VCR player is "Playback not
available on the disk"

Yeah, you and me both.

But not with Movie Maker. I used Ulead and my DVD player gave a different
message, but the same meaning.

Now, Ulead won't even create a DVD for me. So, after trying this NG and the
Ulead one with no answers that resolved the problem, I just gave up.

Some answers related to "finalise the DVD" but I couldn't find the way to do
that.

Anyway, I guess I'm just commiserating -I have no answer
