finally, I can ask my question :P

Ok..I just bought this dvd burner
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000649CI/103-3136330-8761426
And this dvd player
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00008RUXR/103-3136330-8761426

I wanted to make dvd copies...you know..transfer them to my computer and then burn them to two dvd-r discs.

A friend however, told me that it's a good chance a few of my movies wouldn't play on my player and that dvd +r is being phased out which would make it even harder for me to burn movies and likely just end up wasting my money on this thing.

Any of that true? Am I screwed with a dvd burner that will burn dvd-r's that I most likely won't be able to view on my new player?

There's a dvd player database at vcdhelp, as Fantasma mentioned; you can either hunt for it on their main web page or just click on www.vcdhelp.com/dvdplayers if you like.

Please note the forum rules (http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm). You might have missed them when you signed up. Rule 9 requests that titles clearly describe issues and problems ... many of the members are on low-speed connections, and/or on the other side of the planet from the servers, and this helps people pick and choose posts to read.

Thanks!
