External DVD player issue
Hi All
I have an odd problem with my external DVD drive I’m using on my Macbook Air
The mac is reading the presence of a disc but it refuses to play it or read it.
I thought it was the drive, but when I plugged it into my PC it works fine. 100% OK,
Any ideas?
I’m running the latest Mac OS - Mojave
Is this a good question?

@ayyon777 are you using a USB SuperDrive made by Apple?

Hi Aaron
No it's a 'generic' drive. It's used to work fine. Last used it in the summer and worked OK, suddenly just stopped
the actual message that appears on screen is -
'The Disk you inserted was not readable by this computer'
But it says this with every disk! And when I plug into my PC is fine, no problems

@ayyon777 It would be nice to have the make and model number of your drive...

There is nothing on the casing to say who it's made by. It looks exactly like the superdrive but it's a clone. had it for about 5 years always worked fine.
