So i've signed up for an account .downloaded Seasons ,burnt it to DVD + R but my compatible DVD player won't play it .Message comes up Disc Error this disc may not have playback facility ?Any ideas ?
no expert, but i was told that DVD-R was more universal
What format did the file come down in? If it's an ISO/disc image then you need to burn the disc in a specific way, it could be that you've simply copied the file to the disc and so the player doesn't recognise it.

Ummm - how are you burning it to DVD? itunes has DRM (Digital Rights Management) which means that you can only watch it in itunes itself - you cant take video and put it on a DVD because everyone would simply start giving copies to their mates etc. You can download various other software to allow you to remove DRM - but its a faff I suspect.
So - it wont work if you simply went into windows explorer and copied the file to DVD.
The only way I can think of to cheat at this is by linking your video out cable on your computer to a DVD recorder (i.e. the DVD player/recorder you have sitting under your TV) and then press record while you watch the video on full screen mode. Not 100% sure how well that'd work though - might be a bit pants quality.
yeah sts i reckon your bang on .i've e mailed i tunes now .i wouldn't have bothered if i'd have known .just watched it on the computer , ok but would rather see on the telly .
just thought about that again .why is there a facility to burn a disc if you can only watch through i tunes then ?
