Commercial DVDs (those made by the film studios) are NOT burned.
They are stamped out in a factory. There is NO laser involved once
the master mold is burned, and that is a glass plate.
A DVD player was initially intended to play these discs, and many
also played audio CDs.
When they started to include things like MP3 playback capability
(only comes from burned media), and the capacity to play back content
on customer recorded media, not every maker jumped on board, and not
all that did applied it to every model, nor did they include every
type of burned media available at that time. Also, said burned media
has morphed several times since then, and many DVD players are
designed months ahead of their actual manufacture and release into the
market.
