Dvd will play on comp. but not on tv/dvd player? help

Hey,
i just started to learn how to use my mac/iDVD and I burned two DVd's without any issues and they played fine on my regular tv/dvd player. I had a basic image/audio for the background.
I made another DVD with a video for the menu background and more data on it-but it still was under 4.7 Gb of storage..etc. But I went to play it on my tv/dvd player and it says "incorrect disc" and will not read it,yet it will play fine on my Mac.
Any reason why this won't work vs. my other two that burned fine??
Thanks.

Did you burn it as an Audio CD or a Data CD? You may have a home CD player that can play data discs while the car player cannot...

  • After using video capture device to copy VHS to DVD, burnt DVD will play on computer but not

    After using video capture device to copy VHS to DVD, burnt DVD will play on computer but not on DVD player. Tech support for the VCD said my HP DVD burning software has to burn "DVD Video and not DVD data" and to check with HP. How can i check myself.

    Grahamster, welcome to the forum.
    I recommend trying CDBurnerXP for burning video CD's.  I have been using it for years without a glitch.  I use it mainly for burning ISO's, but have used it for all types.  Please let us know if it works or not.

  • Help! hd dvd will play on computer but not in dvd player

    i created a hd slideshow aprox 25jpg images at 1280x720. in dvdsp project preferences are set to hd dvd, slideshow is set to 1280x720p. i have one image set as a menu with one button to play the slideshow. the simulation works fine. the disc burns fine and will play in the computer but not in dvd player. i have tried 4 different players. i also tried setting the prefs to sd then reburn disc. also tried converting the slide show to a track with the smae result. the media im using is imation dvd-r.
    any help would be greatly apreciated!

    HD discs will not play in SD players. Also changing the prefs to SD will not change an existing HD project to an SD project (you cannot go from HD to SD in a project, you need to recreate it as an SD, though you can change an SD to HD project)

  • How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play in quicktime but not iTunes

    How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play with quicktime but not iTunes so I can't sync them

    Th AVPlayerHD works well for playing other video types.  You can transfer the videos via USB in the app tab in iTunes on your computer.  When you open that tab when you have you iPad connected to the computer scroll down and you will see apps listed on the left and a blank on the right.  Click on the app and then click on the add button under the blank window on the right.  Then navigate to the video you want to play and it will transfer it to the iPad.  I have about 14 movies on mine using AVPlayerHD.  works very well.  Also have VLC player (before it was yanked from the app store).  Works about the same.
    You can also get the app Air Video and stream the video to from your computer to the iPad, and even have Theo ad connected to the tv to watch on there.  I do that all the time with my iPhone.  Saves time with not having to sync movies all the time.

  • Hi i am putting photos in my project it will play the videos but not the photos never had a problem before

    hi i am putting photos in my project it will play the videos but not the photos i have not had a problem with this before

    If you haven't tried re syncing the apps using iTunes..
    Connect the iPad to your computer. Select it under Devices left side of the iTunes window. Select Apps from the menu, make sure the boxes next to those apps are selected then click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.

  • DVD +R  will play on computer but not on DVD player, what happened?

    Hi,
    I burned a dvd on using DVDSP and it will not play on our dvd player but will play on the macbook pro dvd player. Should I try a DVD-R or are there other considerations that I should be aware of?
    Thanks,
    Andy

    I created dvd's using idvd and successfully played them in our dvd players, but when I created dvd using the same videos, I cannot play them on the dvd player.I used the standard menu template in idvd to create the dvd. I created a menu with HD video in DVDSP is that the issue as to why it won't play?

  • Menu audio will play during preview but not when disc is burned.

    Encore CS6.
    Menu music plays fine in preview. I know that the file is good. No menu audio after disc is burned. Have tried several different transcoding options. There is menu video too that is working fine.

    Here are notes I couldn't find before I posted that; just general re testing methods:
    Mounting an iso (or building to a folder) is a great way to test.  There are some differences, but it is a great method prior to burning to a disk.  The main difference is simply computer vs dvd player - autoactivate on a button doesn't work with a mouseover, and you can be fooled into thinking your navigation does, or does not, work.  (Even on the computer, don't use the mouse for testing, use the "remote" in the player controls.)
    Encore preview is an emulator, like computer DVD players, that attempts to predict what will happen when a disk is played on a set top DVD player. It has always had issues with some predictions not being accurate. Some inaccuracies are like this one: Encore preview does not work, and a burned disk will. Others are the opposite; it works in Encore preview, and not in a DVD player. The point to be made here is that you cannot rely on Encore preview. You also cannot rely on computer playback of a built image or folder. And, in the end, you cannot rely on playback on one DVD player - some disks work on some players and not on others.

  • Output from DVD Studio Pro plays on computer but not on TV DVD?

    When I output a DVD from DVD Pro (16:9) it plays fine on the computer (and other computers) but not on a conventional DVD player. What am I doing wrong?

    I don't want to take over this thread, but figured why start another when I am having this exact same issue. I create my project, everything is good, I simulate it and everything is good, I burn it to disc and play it on the computer and everything is good, try it in a conventional player and it says it's unreadable and kicks it out. I've tried it in Two different players that both have been able to play movies created in iDVD just fine.
    I browsed my disc I created and it didn't have the standard files (VOB etc) so I thought maybe I mistakenly burned it in HD, checked the encoder settings adn they were set to HD. Fixed that so it was 16:9 SD, burned another and same exact result. Do I need to create a whole new project so it will encode the whole thing in SD? I did do a new movie track and it should have encoded it at SD but I think everything else (Menus, Slideshow, etc) are all in HD still (maybe???). Any suggestions or help are greatly appreciated.

  • .mov will play on iPhone but not on computer

    Hello,
    I have had this problem intermittently but it has me a little confused. Here is what's going on.
    i have recorded several .mov files on my iPhone 5 and I can play each and every one of them from the phone without issues. Now, when i plug the phone into my MacBook, a few of the movies will not play with ANY media player. For example, if I try to open the movie with Quicktime or any other player, like VLC, it is not recognized. It is as if the file is damaged.
    Why can my phone play the movie but it appears damaged when plug into my Macbook and/or copied to my machine?
    Thanks!

    Hi E30,
    I think you should have updated media players as you are trying to play the clips recorded from iphone 5.
    So, you should check your quick time player version & vlc too.
    Here is the link where you can check your OS X version & download then install the right version of quick time player:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime
    You can also update your vlc player version if needed:

    Hope it would help please let me know if it doesn't.

  • TS2972 Apple TV will play some content but not other content

    My AppleTV will recognize the available content on my computer and will play some of it, but when I try to watch other content it says that I must authorize the computer.  However, the computer is already authorized, which Apple TV sees because it will play my music and a TV show I've downloaded.  The content that it will not play was downloaded directly onto my iPad, and I can watch it on my iPad.  When I try to watch it on Apple TV, it says I need to authorize the computer. 
    This is very frustrating.  Any ideas on how I can fix this?

    Just needed to Re-authorize the computer and every thing worked fine. I imagine this will solve most of the issues that I see posted on here concerning this problem.

  • DVD Studio Pro Authored DVD plays on iMac, but not PC or DVD Player

    Have put several film up on web using FCP. Trying to make DVD of movies using DVD Studio Pro. The DVD plays on my iMac, but not my PC or my DVD player. Any suggestions?

    Pop your disc into your Mac. On the disc there should be two folders, VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS. If the VIDEO_TS folder is not there, replaced by something else, then you have indeed created a HD DVD. You need to completely start over.

  • Have two albums in iTunes that say can't find file location but they are on iPod nano and will play on nano but not in iTunes

    I'm trying to play two albums using iTunes but they say the files can't be located and won't play.  The albums are on my iPod Nano 3rd Gen. and will play there.  Syncing my iPod and computer doesn't resolve the problem.  How do I get the albums from the nano to the computer?

    Hello, FayAnnR. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here is an article that I would recommend going through when iTunes indicates that a file can not be located.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1408
    If the media was purchased from iTunes, I would recommend deleting the missing media and either transfer purchased from your iPod or download them again via the third article below.

  • Published module (.swf) will play in Firefox but not IE

    Please help…
    Does anyone know why a .swf file would play fine in Mozilla Firefox, but not load at all in Internet Explorer?   I have six of these that I’ve uploaded to our intranet production server (where they should work fine).  They all play fine in Firefox.  In IE I get a blank screen that just hangs forever.  I don't even get the loading screen (which plays correctly in Firefox.) They are published with Captivate 4 for Flash 8.  I am using IE 7 with Flash 10 on Windows XP to try to play them.  I’ve Googled the problem and searched the Captivate forums and can’t find anything on this.
    This is a major problem for us, as our company standard is IE and these training modules are intended for all staff.   We were hoping to roll them out to all staff next week.  Could this be something that is local to my machine (which is new)?   If so, how do we troubleshoot it to make sure it won’t happen to other users in the field when we roll this training out?
    The modules play in IE fine from my local hard drive.   I've also modified my IE and Flash settings to list the sites as trusted sites and always allow content.
    I've got to get this figured out ASAP... any suggestions would be appreciated!
    Thanks.
    Toni R

    IE - I have version 10,1,102,64 installed
    Firefox - I have version 10,1,85,3 installed
    I followed two sets of instructions. One related to the putting FakeFlash.exe in the ExecutablePublish folder. However, that didn't fix the problem I was experiencing. Then I Followed instructions from:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2010/11/solution-for-cp5-content-not-working-with-the-lat est-flash-player-version.html
    which told me to replace the  CPAnimationUtils.dll file in the installations folder.
    This did correct my problem.
