Hey there, Recently I bought a sony camcorder and made some home movies. I transferred them onto TDK DVD -R and finalised the disc. However the disc wont play on my dvd player which has -R on the front which I understood meant it was compatible? Havent a clue what to do now - any advice gratefully received!! Thanks.

what format dose the sony record in,
what software did you use to burn the dvd,
will the disk play on a pc?

The software is PMB. Would the format be MPEG- all a bit new to me?? And no it wont play on the PC either.........

mouse over the file and note what the file format is.

You could try 'ConvertXtoDvd' :

Never heard of PMB,mpeg is a compression format,to get this to dvd format you will need to convert it,convertx to dvd has been mentioned its very good,the software that came with the camera should be able to make a dvd with the video from the camera.I am presuming that you are using a windows pc.
