It may be down to the media you are using or the method of burning.
What software are you using and what type of media do you usually use.

Can it still play original CD`s and CDR/RW or does it refuse to play anything. If it does not play anything then it may be that you need to try a lens cleaner.

Sorry but that is all that I can think of and a lens cleaner is a reasonably cheap start in the problem solving process.

HTH

I have tried DVD+ and DVD- on dozens of players.LG was the only player to refuse any recordable discs.I have tried about 6 different LG players,only one of them played DVD-.The latest one that I tried the other day refused + and -,but it was 2 years old.I assume the player that worked was a newer model.
Wharfedale players give similar results.
