They don't play all DVD's The single layer DVD will usually work fine (Most 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hour movies can use a single layer) But if the movie has to transition between layers more than once, it can cause the Thompson to bog out.

some of the older Thompson drives will NOT read Dual Layer discs.


If they cant read DL discs that would mean they cant play DVDs. has that happened?

I go around the world leaving a path of destruction in my wake. When I come to a city, grown men cry and women wail. I collect the skulls of my enemies and display them for all to see.........I also kick puppies. For fun.

Yeah, I had problems with dirty disc messages too. One time I bought a game (I forget which one) and put it in my box right after I took it out of the plastic, and I got a dirty/damaged disc error. That's why I got a new box (the green one). It works better then my old one and sounds better. The "1st gen" one I had made high pitch beeps and sounds while in operation, while my new one sounds like an actual computer and is much quieter.

The Samsung drive will remodulate the lens past the CD-R's initial Data track. That's the only reason they play on the Samsungs and not the others.

Not if you are good on the phone, Got them to replace the drive in my launch system with a Samsung. Free of charge, they even paid the shipping. You have to know how to talk to them.
