    This is very common. Sometimes it depends on the cd you have. I always get black layered cd because they can be read exceptionally well.

    You should also try alternative burning software like cdrwin 5 because it could be a simple nero re-encoding error (and yes they do re-encode, even if its already fully standard the movie becomes a dat file and nothing only a dvd player can read it).

    By layer, I mean colour!!

    Look under the cd, does it have a black underneath, a grey or blue(also green).

    Blue cds are known to cause trouble in dvd players!

    sevens8 try changing your cd-r media and also are you encoding them to mpg1 or mpg2?(vcd)or (svcd).I also take it either during or after you encode the movie you are splitting movie....?and what does the finished product look like?

    Actually ye, maybe your stand-alone would work better with svcd. The only problem is, you will need more cd-rs to fit the movie!!
