Do DVDs play with no problems?

You might try a CD laser lens cleaner. (A DVD player uses different lasers for CDs as opposed to DVDs, if I remember correctly.) Also, which DVD player are you using, and are the CDs plain audio CDs (no extras, data tracks, etc.)?

[rimi]

the cd's were plain audio ones
i didnt try to load an original dvd
the dvd player's label is elektra, i cant remember the specific model

[rimi]

i apologize for my ignorance , but wont my player will have
some difficulty to read or to load the cd laser lans cleaner?

how do you know your "originals" are original ?

[rimi]

cause i bought them at virgin's i dont think they burn cd's over there

My guess is the player is broken,time for a new one.

rimi: If you have a CD laser lens cleaner around, go ahead and give it a try. However, if you have to buy one, a DVD laser lens cleaner might work in this case. ^_^

To be sure, though, you should try a few regular DVDs and a handful of other audio CDs just to see if it isn't only rejecting those few discs.
