mtutaj Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Have a question that I have been tring to figure out here for a while. Have a final presentation that is completed. created the DVD menus with DVD Architecture and burned it to a DVD-R & DVD+R disk. as far as I can tell, all the dvd players that I have put them both in as well as all the pc's i have can read both disks. but when I put it in the clients mac, it acts like we didn't even put in the disk. any ideas? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 It doesn't do anything at all when you put it in? Not even an error message? And it's just this one computer? Sounds like the computer might have a broken DVD drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtutaj Posted June 29, 2005 Author Share Posted June 29, 2005 I am planning on taking it over to one of my other clients who has a mac laptop just collecting dust. Don't know why he ever bought it. been sitting for over a year. and see if it gives me any indication on if its the discs. I thought that I read somewhere that mac's are primarily DVD-R compatable.

Bugga_Guy Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 DVD's are trickey.. This happened to me awhile ago when I made a DVD gave it to a client, and it wouldn't play on his home DVD player. It played on all Computer DVD roms here at the office. Then I read an article on older DVD drives/players may not play burnt DVDs. Its just a matter of brand and age of that component.

Chad Warner Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 My wife has a mac laptop with a dvd player in it, and it will play all of our dvd-r's without any problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtutaj Posted June 29, 2005 Author Share Posted June 29, 2005 I had read in a couple of places that DVD-R was the media to use.. What OS for the mac do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
