Hello everyone! : )

I just bought an AVIC-N2 last wekk and got it installed. however it can only play the DVD movies I bought from Blockbuster, cant work with the ones I burned myself. could anyone please advice me how to overcome this problem ? whenever I insert my burned home movies into AVIC-N2, it shows " invalid DVD inserted" . I don't understand why is it invalid though, because I can run my burned DVD video with my DVD player.

please help me out and I deeply appreciate it !!

Probably crappy dvd's. Maybe wrong format.

The DVD player plays DVD-R/-RW. I don't think it can do DVD+R/+RW

You might also try a different burning prog....I have used DVD shrink and had good luck with it.

and as stated above try using a higher quality DVD....
