    I'm new at this so please be patient :)

    i just burned a dvd from an img file to a DVD+R using DVD Decrypter. When i play it in my dvd-rom it plays perfectly fine, sould, titles, COLOR, but for some reason when i try to play it in my stand alone dvd player it plays in black and white. I'm not sure why its doing this but could it be that im missing a file? or that i did something wrong?

    please help me out! thanks in advance!

    This is an unusual problem.

    Have you had a look at your player's compatbility at this link?

    Some players simply don't like to play burned media and the fact that your copy plays fine in your PC is an indication of this. Have you tried the copy in other players?

    if you didnt make the image yourself, id say you are trying to watch a pal movie on an ntsc tv, or vice versa

    honestly, i'm not sure exactly what movie type it was...it was for my dad lol i was just trying to help out. But is there any way to make it color again? the img file came from a .rar file i believe. I even tried to make it a _ts folder but that did the samething. Sorry if i dont make much sence, im not really sure what i am saying. :)
    thanks again!

    WELL i dont know how did the file came from a rar but decrypter is suppose to give you a .iso file which is what goes on the blank dvd. but when i decrypt something it never gives me a rar it gives me an
    un-necessary .MDS file and an .ISO both by the same name all i do is burn the iso to the blank. try playing it on a different dvd player if anything.
