Error reading DVD-R

[Lenggo]

Recently I backed up a bunch of videos to four dvds on my T43 only to discover that they would either not play the videos or show them on the discs. I used CDCheck to see if there where errors on them, which it said there were. However, after I ran CDCheck I could play, the files off the dvds. Can anyone explain why this is happening and how to fix it. Its really frustrating, since i dont want to have to do this every time I want to watch a video.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

If you just copied the files straight over, then you won't be able to view the movie without special software (as far as I know).

http://www.videohelp.com has a humongous faq/how-to section that should help you figure out what to do

The files are actually just .avi's not real dvd video. I seemed to have solved the problem last night by installing a trial version of nero 7 on my t43. Im not really sure why nero works and record now! doesnt but at least I found a way around my problem. Now I just have to get around to actually purchasing nero.
