DVD-R DL problem/question on VAIO VGN-AR51M

Hi,

I have a brand new VAIO VGN-AR51M, which supports the following (from documentation)
Write:
CD-R x8, CD-RW x8, DVD-R DL x2, DVD-R x8, DVD-RW x2.4, DVD+R DL x4, DVD+R x8, DVD+RW x4 , DVD-RAM x5, BD-Rx2, BD-RE x2, BD-R DL x1, BD-RE DL x1
Read:
CD x24, CD-R x24, CD-RW x24, DVD x8, DVD-R DL x6, DVD-R x8, DVD-RW x6, DVD+R DL x8, DVD+R x8, DVD+RW x8, DVD-RAM x5, BD-ROM x2, BD-Rx2, BD-RE x2, BD-RE DL x1.6, BD-R DL x1.6

Now I try to read a DL DVD-R disc which was recorded with a Sony RDR-GX210 DVD recorder, but only get told it is an empty DVD, despite having more than 2 hours recorded on it. I can play the DVD on the RDR-GX210 (The DVD has also been finalized on the RDR-GX210).

Any idea why I can't read the DVD on my laptop ?

Thank you
Markus
