yes it does, it should do, mine does. If it doesn't then some of the newer models have protection for it I think. Cause my mate has a newer one and it won't work.

xbox is not very compatible with CD-R's, so I'm not sure if it supports DVD-R's...

No it wasn't p0rn 
... it was a movie made for school

im not sure whether they play dvd+-rw unless u actually finalise the disc because with some discs it doesnt seem to recognize them

Also any other compatibility info can be found at

It will play burnt cds as long as you burn them at a slow speed. (mine does anyway)

Thats not correct, there are many xbox's that were made a while back that can play pirate dvd's and stuff, or so i was told....
.. You can play burnt cd's aswell on most xbox's... But some of the newer consoles can't because they can't recognise them..

well MINE plays any burnt cd as long as it was burnt at a slow speed.

I'll just add - not all versions of the Xbox plays DVD+/- r/rw, only SOME of the later versions. I was lucky enought o get a compatible player, but every few months the DVD drive is changed, therefore changing the xbox's DVD playing capability.
Test your specific Xbox to find out, because there isn't really much of an other way.

It depends on your drive like blade said. The worst drive is a thompson the best is the samsung and phillips is in the middle. To see what your drive is go HERE if u have a thompson drive look HERE for compatible media . Other than that just experiment.

Also: if it doesn't read a burned DVD right away, try ejecting and re-inserting it again, that's what I have to do sometimes to get it to work. Generally, it's easier to get the xbox to read a DVD + R/RW, rather than a DVD - R/RW
(I, in fact have the Samsung drive
)
