NAD T531 Won't Play DVD

Yes, I asked on that thread whether my NAD T534 (which I thought was T531) would play dual layer DVDs. I started the new thread to discuss Blue-Ray DVD players playing different media formats.

So, it looks like Blue-Ray DVD may not play all types of DVDs (dual layer, RWs, etc) so I need to find an inexpensive regular DVD player to handle my existing DVDs in formats that DVD won't play.

Thanks.

How many burned DVDs do you have? Is it really THAT essential that your player be capable of playing them?

A standalone DVD recorder that records dual layer is fairly recent.
Just a guess but if you burned a movie on a computer it might come across as a data
disc on your player, and a lot of players wont handle those unless they are burned in the proper format.
