i have a problem with using dvd shrink, Now im able back them up and burn them but the problem comes when i goto play it in a dvd player, it says invaild disk. But if i was to put in to my computer it plays no problem. What am i doing wrong? I am using nero to burn them, Dvd shrink to rip them, and if shrink wont do it, im using ripit4me. using nero 8.1.1.4 And dvdshrink. any in-sight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Does your standalone player normally accept the type of disk you are burning - DVD-R or DVD+R. Are you burning at too high a speed - try burning at 4x maximum. Use only known reliable disks - 'Verbatim' is good.
yes, it always accepts them, i have over 200 movies, all on Phillips dvds and have never had a problem until recently when i reformatted my computer, As well, i have burned them all at the same speed.
What do these code out? Use dvdidentifier, just do a search for it. If they code as CMC MAG...toss 'em and upgrade as Attar suggested. I've found Nero 8 to be somewhat problematic (as Father iluvendo stated) although others swear by it. *shrugs* Revert if neccessary. Also...newer movies may require something more updated than Shrink or RI4M...like DvdFab Hd Decrypter. Some standalone's can be picky about quality of media, media format (+R versus -R) and how fast it was burned.
