The first question is always 'did you finalise the dvd after
recording?'
If the answer to this is no then check up in your manual on how to
finalise. Basically you're locking the dvd, it will not be able to
take any more information on it, but it will then become readable on
other players (Hopefully.)
There are always exceptions, not all home recorded discs will play in
all machines. If you find you have finalised and it still won't play
in your pc try it in another player. If it still refuses to play then
you have a problem.
