Hi everybody (my first visit here - looking for help) I want to move my home VHS videos to DVD, so I set up some tapes as IFO, BUP and VBO files on my hard disk. Then I used Folder2iso followed by DVD Decrypter to burn to my DVD RW, per log below. But the resulting DVD cannot be read on any DVD player or computer drive. What more should I do? Do the blank disks require some sort of pre-formatting? Thanks in advance for your help. Decrypter LOG: I 19:36:57 DVD Decrypter Version 3.5.4.0 started!

turn off the test mode you did not record anything on the disc in the test mode the burner runs a check on the disc but does not record
ps firmware is 2 versions behind now, as KS0A out and KS0B came out a couple days ago... can't remember if TYG02 was altered in there though... might be worth you checking out anyway as i'm finding the firmware lacking on my 1693S..
