iDVD wont play these

[bigboy99]

I have a homebrew DVD that will not play on iDVD, but will play on my cheapo Toshiba consumer box. Is there hope of getting it to play on my laptop?

iDVD is a DVD authoring program - not a DVD player. Try using Apple's DVD Player.

Same result - "Supported Disc Not Available"

How exactly did you make the DVDs? Some set-top DVD players will play non-standard DVDs but Apple's DVD player expects a standard, MPEG2-based DVD.

I'm not sure how they were made. Is there any software I can use to get them to play in my MacBook Pro?

I can't even copy the DVD with Toast - I/O error.
