    Hi there!

    And sorry in advance if I've posted to the wrong forum...

    I've recently started having trouble playing back DVD+Rs that I've burned from AVI files (specially new TV programmes). I uninstalled and reinstalled FFDSHOW but the problem still persists. When I check the list of codecs/filters in GSpot there are several problems highlighted, including this one:

    FLV Video decoder File missing

    and

    FLV Splitter File missing

    Could this be causing the problem and, if so, how do I install the necessary codec?

    GSpot also highlights problems with missing files, these being: AVC1 CoreAVC Video Decoder; Stream Matroska splitter; RGB24 FeatherMore MPEG Writer Filter; Cucusoft Data Extracter and ffdshow VFW Decoder helper.

    Could these missing files also be responsible for the problem?

    I'm pretty newish to this (and I've spent a few hours scouring the web for info) so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    All the best,
    jay

    None of those should have anything to do with DVD playback.

    Okay - thanks for clearing that up, folk!

    I think I've now managed to sort the problem. Rather than using NeroVision Express, I'm now using winavi VideoConverter to convert the AVI into BUP and VOB files, then using ImgBurn to burn them onto DVD+R. Do you reckon that's the best way to get the best quality DVD rather than coasters? I've tried DVDFlick too but that burns a jumpy pic with out-of-synch sound sometimes...

    Thanks again for your help!
    Cheers!
