Any idea about what the real problem is?

Just stick it in another device and see if it plays.

Takeshi:
I've had a similar problem.

CD and DVDs I've used before were suddenly having problems being read. More specifically rewritable DVDs.

What fixed it? I don't know, suddenly they just started to work again. Anything else was working though.

x5ga:
Had a similar problem too, disks that I've burned were not recognized but the disks themselves were written correctly. Disabling AHCI in the BIOS for the DVD-writers fixed this, though this will also lead to reinstalling Windows probably.

No. DVD-ROMs are stamped. Recordable discs are not stamped, that's why your writer's laser burns the dye to simulate pits in the disc

Burned discs have variances in the diameter of the pits which may or not be read properly by your drive.

Oh, I thought the writer burned pits into the disc, heh... Thanks for the info.
