Can you burn music on a dvdr to play on CD player?

No. Data on CDs and DVDs are laid out in rings. Think of the rings as the groove on an old phonograph record. The "grooves" on a DVD are much tighter than those of a CD. The laser in a typical CD player would not be able to read them correctly.

Will a Blu-ray play on a DVD Player?

No. A blue ray disc has a blueray laser to read the HD disc. Also a blueray player needs a spinning reader to read the blueray disc. The spinning reader is also what is used to read DVD's and therefore will read DVD's. A DVD player does not need a blueray laser because the disc can be read without one. If you want a movie in HD but you don't want to buy a whole new player, you can buy a HDVD (HD DVD).A normal DVD player will read that.

How do you fix a DVD that wont play?

Sometimes, the DVD player is dirty inside and you can purchase a DVD player cleaner, which is a DVD that cleans the parts inside the player. Or if that's not the case, it could be that the DVD needs to be replaced with a brand-new one.


Can a CD play in a DVD player?

it depends. are you using a DVD/ CD player? or are you using just a plain CD player? if ur using the CD player, it wont work because it doesn't have a screen. if your using a DVD/ CD player, it will work just fine. A DVD will not play in a CD-only player -- even a CD-ROM drive that does not have DVD hardware built in. The stepper motors and lenses for a DVD-ROM drive are far more precise than a CD drive, and the CD drive cannot physically read the tiny information on the DVD surface.
