I have burned several PAL DVDs with PowerDirector 8 which play fine on my Panasonic Player/Recorder. Suddenly, my burned DVDs will only play if Player is set to NTSC. Clicking on Disc icon in bottom LH corner of Create Disc screen shows my production to be "HQ - Best quality PAL" Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi trade4cma , Check your Panasonic to see if it hasen't been accidentally set to NTSC ( Configuration \ Connection \ System TV ) . Best regards , fanaudi .

Hi, Some players are picky with certain cdrw/dvdrw discs. You might have to experiment with different brands/types for your discs. I used to have a cd player (teac) which would just refuse certain brands cd-r discs but play others just fine. I know it sounds odd, but once I noticed which ones work and which ones don't I never looked back. Also, have the "problematic" discs been recorded on just one recorder? Have you tried playing discs recorded on a different recorder? Also - I'm sure you've already tried it-it's always a good idea to clean the laser just in case. Hope this helps+ Good luck, Raf
check SCART lead hasn't come out....even a slight amount will disconnect the audio pins Check the function / to others / setup / connection / AV1 & AV2 settings
DVDs are region coded. This means that they will only play on a DVD player from the region the DVD was produced to be watched in. For example, an Australian DVD is Region 4. It will only play on a Region 4 player. If you try to play it on a player that is set for a different region, it will probably not play. One way around this is to get hold of a multi region player. These are widely available. Alternatively, you should be able to watch the DVD on your computer, although you may need some region free software if your computer's dvd player has been locked. Usually computer DVD players will allow you to play DVDs from any region a few times and then they will lock to a particular Region Code. If you are in North America, you will need a PAL player. The only other thing you may be able to do is to unlock your existing player to convert it to region free. Many DVD players can be unlocked but you would need to find the unlock information for your paticular player. Hope this helps....
