Was the DVD not properly finalized? I know CD's burned on Audio CD
Burners need to be finalized and they don't do much well until that is
done.

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.
