    Can you see the folder(s) on the DVD if you open the drive in windows explorer? There should at least be a folder named video_ts (perhaps an audio_ts too)

    If you can do that it's almost certainly the software.

    If you're using PowerDVD, click on the little disc icon/folder icon on the powerdvd remote - selects between music discs and DVDs (may be the problem) in older versions

    I'm using PowerDVD XP, version 4.65 I think. Windows explorer can see files on all cd's but can't see anything on dvd's.

    Saw something similar on Creative Labs DVD a few years ago. Try disabling DMA on the drive....
