Thank you for your mighty quick response!!! Don't know about the set-top playing either +/- disks and don't know how to find out either!! Don't know much so it seems!! It just seems that the film has burnt onto the disk but I can't watch it ...... either when I burn it as NTSC or PAL in the settings. Have got a film here that someone gave me ages ago with a film on ..... same disk ..... works in both my set top player and son's x-box. Only problem is, not in contact with that person anymore to find out how they did it. Is there anyway I can find out from those disks any information that might help me with regards to set up, etc???? Looks like this is gonna take a while ........ sigh
