I have 'Unknown file format ' while tried to play some DVD movie on my PC (some other worked on DVD Rom), but when i played it on my DVD Player it's doing fine. What should i do on my DVD ROM setting?
 
Is your PC DVD reader compatible with the medium ? If your DVD unit is +R, then it might have issues if the disk is a -R (and vice-versa).
I have a DVD writer at home that came with a free DVD-RAM disk. Turns out that such a format cannot be read by any +RW/-RW unit that I have tried it on. But it can be read in my living room DVD player without any problem.
