You probably can't play them because you don't have the correct codecs. Might I recommend VLC which is a player with in-built codecs, even if you only keep it as a backup it plays everything. You should see CODECs list and alternate players for Movies BTW all this information has already been supplied in the Sticky threads at the top of the sections of the forum.

For burning videos you need a burner program that can do the job such as Nero 6 or later or Roxio's easy cd/dvd creator. Else you get yourself a video converter.

For downlding videos see the following points:

1. Movie download issues

2. Learn to use Bitzi lookup to see if the particular video file is listed on their database to see other people's feedback on the quality. How to use Bitzi Web Lookup ...

Make sure your set-top dvd player has the ability to play VCD's & DVD-R's. Some players are fussy toward brand also. As I recall you have a good burner.

For creating a movie dvd-r, make sure the format is DVD-ROM (UDF). Normally selecting DVD video in Nero will do this for you. If it's not UDF format, then very often will not play on a set-top dvd player.

When burning VCD's, burn them at minimum speed. Friends & myself had problems when burning at high speeds. But when burnt at minimum speed, the VCD's played fine.

I only have Nero 5 so I can't tell you the exact settings for dvd. (I do all my burning on mac for dvd's.) Are you using Nero Burning ROM or Nero Express?
