no software settings change, i think its a hardware defect because the volume control is a separate unit

What volume control are you talking about? The one you get when you click on 'sound' icon in system tray/control panel? Or you mean volume control on your speakers/amplifier? Please clarify.

Have you tried a different amplifier or set of speakers? If the volume cuts immediately from high to low to high to low etc. then it's usually a dodgy cable. Have you tried gently moving the wires and plugs about to see if it effects the volume?

Ok, first question, did it used to play them ok or has it never worked?
Second question, are you trying to play DVDs with a different region code than your drives / software is set to?
Third question, can it read data dvds ok?

are these discs that youve used before or new ones also are they +r/-r
just a though if your trying to use a media that may not be support or that some discs aint liked by some drives even if they are compatible. |

Yeah, I was just gonna ask is it only certain movies?
Have you installed anything recently, between the time when they did play and didn't?

1.what's the difference between -r and +r and which are better (+r are somewhat cheaper here).
2. what are your experiences with dvd-rw, are they worth buying?

@blayv
The main difference is DVD-R is compatible with about 93% of all standard DVD players whereas DVD+R is compatible with about 83%.
This means that if you intend to use your DVD-RW drive to make movie disks to play on a standard (not a computer) DVD player, or other people's computers then you should go for DVD-R.
If you're only interested in making DVDs for use on your computer, you can get away with just a DVD+R burner.
In terms of ease of use performance and reliability, there's no difference between the two formats

theres not a load of difference between the one write +r and -r just different formats really technically there will be differences but for mere mortals putting films or data there aint much to chose execpt burn times possibly
dvd rw either + or - are just re recordable meaning like a video tap if you dont want whats on the dic you can record over it. however different discs are better than others i used some phillips +rw recently your supposed to be able to record over then 1000 times i got about 4 before they started becoming unreadable or showing surface glitches.
like a lot of things in life you get what you pay for.
if its to cheap it will have corners cut to expensive they are just out to make a buck |
