have a look on the front of the optical (CD/DVD) drive on your computer. there should be something on there which states the disc types it can play.

Hi DanAB Cant see any thing as you describe on the front of my computer

you need to put the disc back into your recorder and finalise it to make it playable on other players, incl your pc.

You may well not be able to do this with RW discs mind.
try downloading 'VLC Media Player' (it's free), it has the ability to play just about any dvd/music format. I had the same problem as you.
