Just purchased a pionneer ao6 DVD rw, and i was wondering, if i burn a DVD R can it be read in any DVD player.

depending on the media type

and the dvd player..

check on the net

regarding ur standalone player

what it can read and what i cant.

dvd-r is very compatible in my experience

but then again..

always seen standalone dvd's that could read dvd-r
from spec in manual

DVD-R can be read by most drives so you'll have to check yourself to see.

Most players now support DVD-R Media but then again there are players that don't.

so it will work with DVD-R but not dvd +R, the type of palyer i'm talking about would be a pc dvd, the earliest type that used to coem with the likes of gateway.

If it is a PC DVD player then i'm almost 100% certain that any player will support any DVDR media

thats what i thought, but these DVD's are prety old (about 3-4 years) so they might predate the DVD-R format, I don't know. to be honest my DVD players were the biggest waste of money, and i kinda ignored them for along time.

Well i doubt that they won't work but why don't you just try and see if they will work
