[MacDV] Re: DVD Player not playing

[Mark M. Florida]

My hunch is that the problem is caused by the disc media -- is it a 
DV+R ("PLUS R") disc, by chance?  You should be able to tell either by 
the printing on the top of the disc (pretty obvious), or if that's 
covered up with a label or printing, then check the tiny type around 
the center ring of the disc.  If it *is* a +R disc, try copying the 
VIDEO_TS folder to the desktop, then point DVD Player there for 
playback.  Then, if you want, after doing that, you can re-burn it to a 
DVD-R ("DASH R")...

I just found this hint on macosxhints.com:
