So, someone has sent me a DVD+R, and it doesn't play well in any player I have around. It is a wildlife video segment burnt for us by a photographer working in Malaysia, we helpd a little with some of the arachnid identifications. It is burnt as NTSC for the US region code. I put it in my G4/AGP with 10.2.8 and DVD PLayer, the system never sees that a disc is inserted. The main screen loads on my wife's Dell laptop with CDR/DVD read, but then the player freezes (busy icon appears, never goes away). It played about 50% through (15 min video) once on my al cheapo Apex player that I have set up for my TV, but now it starts to miss after the first couple minutes and always freezes after that. The guy has stuck a label on it, at first I thought that the issues were due to the label edges working loose but I stuck them back tightly and it hasn't changed anything. The dissc also looks nice and clean. Any tools to use to extract whatever can be recovered? Any ideas why the G4 doesn't even know a disc is inserted? The G4 can play other DVDs fine. Thanks for thoughts. Brian
