    Hi
    Is this an original or a backup you're trying to make a copy of?

    If it's an original what movie is it and what are you using to remove the copy protection (like AnyDVD, DVDFab)?

    Ok here's some other suggestions:

    Is the firmware up to date on your drive?
    You can post back the make, model & firmware version and we can check it if you like.
    You can find this info in Nero Tools - InfoTool. In the drop down the make and model of the drive will be listed and in the drive tab there's a field for the firmware version.

    Have another drive you can try to see if it recognizes them?

    Another option is to try to rip w/ Decrypter then use Nero to burn the files.

    ok now just need the make & model. Do you see it listed in the drop down of InfoTool?

    Or double click on 'my computer' right click on the burner - will be listed as DVD-RW drive or similar. Click on properties then the hardware tab - the make on model will be listed there.

    Just what I needed.

    You have a Samsung SH-S182D
    The latest firmware is SB05.

    You can use the 'live update' from Samsungs site to update the firmware.
    Here's a link.

    Update the firmware & see if the discs are now recognized.

    Did you download the full version of live update? It should just be an .exe that you then run to install.

    I'd still try decrypter to rip - what the heck - before I threw in the towel.
