Question. What software were you using to make the DVD? Did the video get compressed to MPEG4? Do you still have the origional video on the cam corders DVD? My bet is the Cannon cam corder came with software to make a disk usuable in your DVD player. The other question is what type of DVD player do you have. I know that most Sony players won't play home made DVDs and their CD players won't play home made CDs.
