DVD9? whats that?

When you say it doesn't recognise the format , most commercial DVDs are DVD9 that just means it is a dual layer disc . If you are reading that the disc capacity is 4.3 GB That would be a DVD5 .

Your question is somewhat confusing.

Can you play commercial DVDs on your PC ie Original films bought from shops?

Is the film you are having problems with an original film or a copy?

It is strange for someone to say I purchased a DVD9 .
You might say I bought a DVD Film today and it wont play.

Where did you get the information that it was a DVD9 from ?
