I'm trying to enjoy Seasone One of House on DVD but I cannot get Side B to play on either my PS2 or my Computer. Seeing as how I purchased a brand new Dell with a DVD-R so that I wouldn't need a separate DVD player at all I will be seriously bummed If it is incapable of playing Side B of any disc.
Anyone have any helpful advice as to what I can do? I have a small portable DVD player I can dig out the AV cables for but it's not nearly as convenient to operate.

I think he is saying that it's a dual-sided disc rather than a dual-layered one.
I can't really think of anything, though your lack of a standalone DVD player makes it harder to verify. The disc itself might be genuinely defective.

It is, I flipped the disc over and for whatever reason the players do not read Side B.

Ok, I just tested the disc in a portable DVD player and Side B is playing on there just fine. so I know it's not a defective disc.
I guess my PC or the Ps2/Ps3 just won't play Side B. Damned!
