HEY, not sure what kind of dvd drive i have... i know its dual layered.
I can play dvds movies, games, cds, and i can burn whatever using nero...
when i put the burned dvd r in the dvd drive it take 1-2 mins to read it...
it comes up as a blank disc no matter how i try to get into it.
it ends up not reading it at all.
the dvd r's contains mp3's. No video....
my wifes computer, my friends computer and my portable dvd player read them just fine.!!!!
what gives.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suggest a firmware update from Toshiba. If this does not help then your laser in the drive is no longer capable of this task. Also just thought about it but make sure the media that you are burning to is the same as the drive + or - R's

This is a common problem on CD and DVD players.
Altini is correct to a point. You can try taking the top case off,
removing the DVD drive and taking the top off of the drive. Then use a
q-tip on the laser lense. I use a little squirt of windex on the q-tip.
Gently clean the lense even if it doesn't look dirty. Make sure you
very gently work the lense up and down through it's travel. This will
make sure no dust or dirt is interfering with the lense focusing.
Reassemble and try your movies again. This is a 50 50 proposition. If
you still have the same problem, the mechanism has likely gone bad.
Time for a new DVD player.

jusguessin should call Toshiba quickly. The units have a 1 year
warranty. Do not open the unit or it will void your warranty (I know, I
do Toshiba warranty repairs on their recorders. If anything will make
be void a warranty, it's a consumer who opens the unit and pokes around
inside).
mooch, clean the laser head. I wish I could refer you to a FAQ because this is about the 10th time today I have written this.
Open the unit. Remove the DVD drive. Take the top off of the DVD drive.
Clean the lense with a q-tip with a little windex on it. Work the head
up and down gently. Reassemble and test. If problem presists, go buy a
new one.

Having the same problem. DVD player loads enough to identify it is a DVD or a CD, but won't actually start playing anything.
