First, for the sake of clarity let me call the two lasers red (for pre-recorded) and blue (for CD-R). I am not sure if these colors are right, etc...


You say
"So therefoer we BOTH do acknowledge that SOME DVD players will play 'burnt' audio as well as DVD AND standard pre-recorded stuff."

You are correct- for these players are equipped with both lasers (blue & red). I am not sure if one of these is also used fro the DVD, or if that is a third, but I would stronly think that the one that works for pre-recorded CD's is the DVD one.

You also say
"My Sony AND 2 DIFFERENT GENERATION Panasonic DVD players DO play Consumer level pre-recorded CD audio format as well as DVD's but REFUSE to recognize audio in any type of 'burnt' format."

Correct again, and makes sense. These players have the one "red" laser that picks up pre-recorded CD's (and potentially DVD's too) but DO NOT have the second blue laser for reading CD-R's.

A player can have MULTIPLE LASERS. It recognises the disc and uses the appropriate one.
