You must finalize the DVD on the Toshiba before it can be read on any other DVD player. Before finalization, it is possible to still add content to the DVD using the Toshiba but afterwards it will not be possible.

dvd player will only play movies for the COUNTRY in which you purchased it. There is no way to purchase a system or configure a system to play ALL MEDIA FOR ALL COUNTRIES. The country codes are specific and each country wants to prevent any other country from playing their dvds music, etc.

Like you said the unit is capable of playing DVD RW and DVD-RW. However, some discs may not be compatible due to format of the files on the discs, software used and laser pickup. Some technologies used to record on discs can prevent optimal playback of the files by changing them which affects the ability of the player to read the file.<br /><br />If you are burning the discs, I would suggest you different software, make sure the video/audio files are being converted to a DVD format that can be played on stand alone players. <!-- from fixya rte -->

all dvd recorders are very very sensitive when comes to which disc is fed to them......you say sony is the same as memorex is the speed the same 4x-16x, may i also suggest maxell, dynex and vertabram

It could be the dvd there is different types of dvds that some dvd players cant use.

-r is more universal, +r is newer.
Howevr it could be what you are using and how you are burning the DVDs.
Try just moving the Video TS folder to the recording cue and burn just that (as data).

to clear "error 14", press the "display" button on the remote control - this has worked every time my toshiba has an error 14 message

it could be the disc that is causing the problem try some other disc and see what it does.good luck.

hi try this: a can of compressed air a narrow hose open the discs drawer try to locate the laser eye with some light and clean it if this wont work its not a teamate no more good luck
