How do I fix a disc error?

best dvd player win 7 image

I have a home made video of my son as a baby on a DVD+RW. I copied that to my laptop because I want to put it on a non RW disk. I burned the video from my comp to a DVD +R disc using windows explorer. I can play the video back on the new DVD+R using my laptop, however It won't play in my VCR/DVD so I can view it on my television. I keep getting a disc error message saying "Playback feature may not be available" and to eject the disc. So what went wrong as to why it won't play on my VCR/DVD player but it will play on my laptop and what can I do to get it to work on my VCR/DVD player?

More info: Disc- Maxell DVD+R
Burn speed 6X
Asus laptop with Win 7
VCR/DVD Brand: Pye Video, VHS and DVD combo PY90VG
Windows Explorer was used to copy the video files from the DVD+RW to the laptop and
then used to burn the video from the laptop to the DVD+R.
Also, the VCR/DVD player does work with other DVD's so it's not the player that is causing the problem as in I put the original DVD RW in and it played.

Answer
You need a right codex for your vcr/dvd. The vid you have may be an avi file for example. You may have to down load a converter or with win 7, I think windows player may be able to convert it.

what is the easiest way to transfer vhs to dvd?

i like to catch up with technology and transfer about 10 hours of vhs to dvd. i don't have a dvd recorder but i do have the vhs player and computers with xp, vista and win 7. if had a quote from a shop and they will charge me £5.00 per hour of vhs.
there must be a cheaper way.
thanks

Answer
10 x 5 = 50. you will spend at least that much to get a video capture card. go with the shop.
