www.vcdhelp.com has a compatibility list that should help you. I can't personally verfiy this, but one guy told me that his Sony would play Practical Peripheral brand CD-Rs with no problem. CD-RWs are generally not a problem with Sony, but CD-Rs typically don't work on Sony.

Well, my DVP-C660 plays VCD's recorded over PRINCO brand CD-R's.

I have princo 80 minute CDRs and they do NOT work with my DVP-C660.. these are packaged in a yellow box with slim jewel cases.

Princo CDR's use to work with my DVP C660. 2.5 years later, it does not. I tried cleaning my CD Player as well, but this has not helped the situation. So the moral of the story is, if your DVD player is new (which is probably not the case) it might work with Princo CDR's. If it is an older model, it probably will not.

I found his on http://ecoustics.consumerreview.com/pscAudioReview/Home+Video/DVD+Pla yers/DVP-C660,/PRD_124603_1587crx.aspx

It didn't help me but it may help others.

By pressing (one after the other) "title", "clear" and the "power" button while dvd player is in standby mode will bring you to a hidden menu (make sure your TV is on!). Select option 1 from the TEST MODE MENU (Drive auto adjustment). From the next submenu choose option 4 (SACD). The tray will open allowing you to put in a CD-R into the player. Follow the on-screen instructions, the first steps are fast but after a while, it checks jitters and that takes forever, hitting "return" then will stop the process. In my case, eventhough I aborted the operation, after I exited the hidden menu, I was once again able to read CD-Rs.
