Compatibility problems with DVD-R discs.

DVD players and computer DVD drives manufactured prior to 2001 may experience compatibility problems with DVD-R (recordable) discs, even if they can play mass produced DVD movies or "pressed" DVD's. If you receive a DVD-R disc and it does not play in your machine it is likely that there is nothing wrong with the disc but that your player or drive is an older unit not compatible with DVD-R discs. There are lists on the internet at CustomFlix, DVDMadeEasy, VCDHelp, YesVideo.com, HomeMovie.com, and Apple that indicate player compatibility with DVD-R discs.
