Can I burn DVDs to Watch on My Old Player?

[Nocontact]

Hi, I'm new to all this and I'm wondering about something.
I have an old (2000) Sony DVP-330 DVD Player and I was wondering if it could play created DVDs.
I was thinking of using Dvdshrink and Nero to make my DVD but I'm wondering if I would have to take any special steps to get it to work on my older player.
Thanks

I have a old Apex DVD player in one of my bedrooms plays copied DVDs fine. You won't know till ya try. If you are new to copying read the FAQs on Shrink also if your burner supports bitsetting burn DVD as DVD-Rom

The SONY DVD-330 WILL recognize high quality DVD-Rs (NOT, consistently, if at all, DVD+Rs), such as Ritek 4X, Ridata 4X, Verbatim 4X.

I strongly suggest that you burn them at 2X...

Ok thanks, Verbatim seem pretty easy to find so maybe I'll try those. Do you know roughly how long a 2X burn would take for a standard DVD?

"Ok thanks"

My pleasure ;>}

"Do you know roughly how long a 2X burn would take for a standard DVD?"

Thirty minutes for a full 4.37Gb...
