How To Burn CD's So It Will Play In Sony DVPS9000?

If the laser isn't calibrated to read the wavelengths reflected by the ink on CD-Rs, there's no way the machine will play them. CD-RW's reflect light in a completely different way, but the wavelength reflected is very similar to CD's, just MUCH lower level. Seems like a big oversight from sony not to include the CDR feature on their machines. Cheers!

I've actually seen a computer CDR go in the DVPS9000 and heard music come out of the speakers though! I told him the DVPS9000 wouldn't play CDR's but he proved me wrong. I was very surprised to say the least. It has been done and I just need to figure how.

Ive had the same question. I would love to buy one of these things and use it as my main CDP as well as DVD.
I cant afford to have a high end cDP and DVD right now and this unit plays cd's wonderfully but w/ no cdr i cant buy it unless i found a way for it to work.

Yes it will play CDR-W's perfectly. I also have a music cd-R from Maxell that was recorded with the EXACT CD copy software (free on the Net)and I can hear Harry Belafonte loud and clear. I have not used this software myself, so I cannot garantee it will work...but cd-rW's, no problem so far !
