I can shrink with no problems but the movie quality is crap. There is audio and video pauses and fragmenting throughout. How do I stop this. Obviously I am very new at this, any help would be great.
What media are you using? Download DVD Identifier to find out if your not sure. http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_tools/dvd_identifier.cfm Stick with Verbatim or Fugi made in Japan.
I think the answer to the question is Memorex DVD +R, 4.7gb. I have used A4 DVD shrinker to shrink and used Nero6 to burn. ** INFO : Drive = HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4163B [FW A102] ** INFO : Write Capabilities = DVD+R DVD+R-DL DVD+RW ** INFO : Write Capabilities = DVD-R DVD-RW DVD-RAM ** INFO : Disc = [DVD+R:CMC MAG-F01-000] ** INFO : Reference Speed : 1x DVD = 1385 kBps ** INFO : An Writeable Disc Is Recommended For Accurate Results ** INFO : Write Speeds (Supported By This Drive On This Disc) Listed Below ** INFO : GET PERFORMANCE Write Speed Descriptor(s) Descriptor #1 = 5540 kBps ( 4.00x) - [CLV/Non-Pure CAV] Descriptor #2 = 3324 kBps ( 2.40x) - [CLV/Non-Pure CAV] ** INFO : MODE SENSE Write Speed Descriptor(s) [Legacy Command] ** WARNING : MODE SENSE Is Obsolete And Not Always Properly Supported Descriptor #1 = 5540 kBps ( 4.00x) - [CLV/Non-Pure CAV] Descriptor #2 = 3324 kBps ( 2.40x) - [CLV/Non-Pure CAV] not sure if this info helps either, sorry if I am way off
This is most likely your problem. CMC MAG is pure crap and causes more problems than any other media I know of. Memorex buys their media from the lowest bidder and CMC MAG usually gets the bid. They are not at all recommended here. Try some verbatum, taiyo yuden, sony, fuji (made in japan), or maxell. memorex/cmc mag strikes again.
