Playing home-made DVDs Can't Post

I have a Mitsubishi DLP HD TV with a 7-year-old JVC DVD player. I can run commercial DVDs with no trouble. But DVDs -- slide shows -- made on my computer using Nero and Photoshop Elements will not run on the HD TV. They ran fine on my older TV and on others' standard TVs.

Because I can run commercial DVDs, but not home-made DVDs, it appears that there are settings that have to be changed on either the computer programs or the TV. So far no advice from Photoshop or Nero Web sites.

Sounds more of an issue with the dvd player. Does the homemade movies still play from that dvd if you hook it up to another tv? I can't see how a tv can decide or not to decide what to play from another source.

A lot of older DVD players don't have updated firmware to support burned DVD's and will often have trouble reading burned DVD's esp. since your DVD player is 7 years old. I have a Panasonic DVD player from 2001 and the only way I get it to play burned DVD's is by constantly opening and closing the door or hitting play/stop until the index catches.

DVD players from major manufacturers have protction built in for zoning etc, playing a self burned DVD the machine is unhappy with the codeing and may not play. Cure is, buy a cheap and nasty DVD player for that.
