Windows 10: dvd player running but not displaying

I upgraded from win 7 to win 10 and dvd player appears to be runining but not displaing

:)

 

Burned DVD's Work in SOME players

In that case, it is possible the problem is with the blu ray player not supporting DVD+R disks.

Suggest you check to make sure: it's possible you can overcome this problem by simply burning DVD-R instead of DVD+R. Check your blu ray compatibility list first.
