hi all - i have a dvd that was burned on a PC i need to import on my mac. it actually works fine in my cheapo home dvd player, but when i insert it into my super or combo drive (i have both), i get this message:

"You have inserted a disc containing no volumes that Mac OS X can read - to continue with disc inserted"

and i can either "IGNORE" or "EJECT"

i've repaired disk permissions and researched all i can on this, and haven't come up with any real answers. any help would be great. here's what i'm running:

G4 dual 1.25GHz
OSX 10.2.8

clearly the dvd (a sony dvd+r) works as i can watch it fine on my home system - it's something with osx that's messing me up.

thanks everyone!
 
Your drive probably doesn't support DVD+R. Mine didn't either, although I just have a DVD-ROM and an external DVD burner. The external drive could read the +R media while the older DVD-ROM couldn't.
 
I have a super drive, and it reads dvd+r's...a different system though, I have a 15" pb, 1.67ghz. i dunno if that helps in any way.
