    The first (and only so far) DVD I burned was an invalid file type on every DVD player I tried, including this product itself. It burned a dvd, then when I tried to play the dvd from this player, it wouldn't recognize the file. Not sure if I did something wrong or what, but ask the sales rep before buying

    I bought this thing for around $30, which seemed like a pretty good deal. It works great for backing things up to disc, although I have not had any success with it when trying to play DVD movies. Frustrating, although it may be a simple fix.
