DVD s reading CD-R s and CD-RW s


How many of you have had problems with your DVD player trying to read "burned" CD's ??? I know that my Sony won't do it. I was talking to my business partner and he said that he would try his DVD player when he got home. Lo and Behold !!! His Philips DVD player passed with flying colors. It was able to read both CD-R's AND CD-RW's !!! This might be because it uses two seperate lasers, one for video and another for audio. As such, i figured that i would pass this info along for those that might be interested in such things. At the same time, i was wondering if anyone else has any other DVD players to add to the "good reading skills" list ??? Sean

Kthomas, what media are you using? My Sony 7700 reads some media, but not others. On some media, it won't manually advance directly to a middle index point without going into some sort of grand mal seizure.
My Pioneer DV525 has read all brands of CDR's fed it. I have not tried CDRW's. It did pop a bit on a computer generated CD, though. I should admit they were burned on Pioneer machines, as well.
