Interestingly, higher end DVD players are fussier than lower end players -- like Apex which will practically play a cardboard disc. ;-) And, yes, some DVD players will only play one format or the other, but many will play both.
What's more important is the brand name of the blank media. For instance, Verbatim ranks the highest -- will play on the most DVD players -- while some off brands will play on hardly anything. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia It's not a consistent thing, at all. Marnie aka Doe
