My dvd player wont play them, it says "unable to read disc" or even freezes. The disc look a little weird, this is gonna be hard to explain. It's like there are there are 2 different colurs on the discs. You know a dvd is silver, but here it's also whiter on some places. Does anyone know what I mean?  [Link] |

Then I bought it brand new still sealed from a different store, it also has the cloudy white swirl on it, it also plays fine. I think the white stuff is the glue that was used to manufacture the disc. Edited by - M.B. on 10/14/2004 4:31:01 PM  [Link] |

| ChrisSnow Member 419 Posts 4/03 | Posted - Oct 15 2004 : 6:17AM I suspect that is the reason why I can't play them. All the discs look like this. It really sucks. [Link] |

| LordClamFist Member 6 Posts 10/04 | Posted - Oct 31 2004 : 12:47PM A DVD9 (Dual Layer) disc has two polycarbonate platters that are glued together. It sounds like the layers weren't bonded entirely together. Its a manufacturing defect. [Link] |
