Sounds like possibly the DVD didn't get 'finalized' which makes it readable on other devices. Take it back to the friend and ask them about whether they finalized it. The original device (the recorder, which may be all they ever use) will always be able to read it, finalized or not, so maybe they aren't aware of finalizing. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
