Some technical stuff from cdrfaq.org:
"CD-R was designed to be read by an infrared 780nm laser. DVD uses a visible red 635nm or 650nm laser, which aren't reflected sufficiently by the organic dye polymers used in CD-R media. As a result, many DVD players can't read CD-R media. Some DVD players come with two lasers so that they can read CD-R. For a technical discussion, see
http://www2.osta.org/osta/html/cddvd/intro.html and
http://www.emedialive.com/EM1998/bennett3.html.
CD-RW discs have a different formulation, and may work even on DVD players that can't handle CD-R media. If CD-R media doesn't work, try copying the disc to CD-RW instead (assuming your recorder supports CD-RW). "
