No. The DVD uses a smaller "track", a smaller wavelength laser, a higher data rate etc in order to fit more data on the same size disc. A Blu-ray disk uses an even smaller track etc. in order to carry yet more data as required by high definition video.

No, CD disc is only for music and data file. CD can hold up to 700 MB files. But DVD can hold up to 4.7 GB files. much larger than CD.
If you want to know how to copy DVD to another DVD, this DVD Cloner would help you a lot.

Steven sounds like he knows the technical reason it does not work.
You need discs that are set up for DVDs

Not unless you use a computer to copy and then watch them. You need DVDs.
