wow, how patient you are.
you waited an entire hour and a half before yelling for help.
it'd be amazing if anybody helps you at all.
are you sure your DVD player is compatible w/CDR or CDRW?
try a different brand maybe

There are two options to check about complatible player, first is VCD/SVCD complatible and second is CDR/CDRW (DVDR) complatible.

I've checked your player and it says that your player can't play on CDR so you'd better try with CDRW and see if it works.

For PS2 I think you'll need some mod chip before can play VCD disc.

thank you so much for your reply.....i think you do need a mod chip to play cd-rs...ect...that could be the problem i will get some cd-rws today and try it....thanx again..peace
