A bit more info would help

How did you burn to the cdr?
What programme did you use?
What settings did you use?
What file type did you use?
What have you been trying to view the movie with?
Computer?
Dvd player?
Does this dvd player support the type of movie/cdr you made?

Now if I make assumptions and take it you used Movie maker adn burned the cd
from this, then it only make HiMAt cd's which are not playable in dvd
players, but should play in your pc. You friend had a programme which makes
vcd's and this is playable in your dvd player.

Solution, buy the programme your friend has, or check if you have it or
something similar already on your pc.
