    Hello Everybody!
    I got a issue which i hope can be resolved here
    I recently received a burnt dvd from my cousin that lives in italy, the dvd is of her wedding and i am unable to play it on my computer "i have a NEC dvd-rw-nd-2500a and a pioneer dvd-rw-dvr-110d" i tried numerous programs like divx and other types of codec installations, my dad tried playin it on his panosonic dvd player and was only able to see the menu but was unable to play any selection, anyone here can give me some helpfull advice i would greatly appreciate it.

    You might demux the M2V video and the audio stream , then re-author a new DVD by yourself.
    Try ReJig (FILE MODE to demux the stuff, DVD AUTHOR to make a new VOB set).
    If you use a more detailed (and not free) authoring application, you can add fancy stuff like chapters and so on, but it's not really important...

    It might be beacause of the region coding.
    I would run anydvd in the background and see if
    it can correct the problem.
    (Its a free 21 day trial)
    While you have anydvd running
    Then you can use DVD shrink to make a 1:1 backup,
    without any region coding ect...

    good luck

    Yes, Italy is Region 2 and US Region 2 ... maybe you cannot even you can disassemble the DVD the way I suggested because of the region protection (but I din't know even unprotected DVD had that protection!). You'd better to use some Region emulating software, AnyDVD is very good for this..

    I tried all the above and none worked, i also tried ultimate video converter and had no luck i dont know what to try next!
    a friend of mine tells me that i will have a hard time finding the proper software for converting.

    Sorry, but I don't believe you.
    Do this process:
    - run DVD Decrypter and, on file mode, extract all the files on your HD, e.g. C:\MYDVD
    - run ReJig. Go in IFO MODE, open the IFO of the main movie, check both video and audio, set 'demux video' (I don't think you need to correct an AC3 delay) and select an output directory.
    - you'll have a 720x576 25 fps M2V video stream plus an AC3 (or MP2) audio stream, isn't it?
    After that, you'll have just to convert the 720x576 25 fps M2V (PAL) video stream into a 720x480 29.97 fps M2V (NTSC) stream.
    This can be done by any commercial video encoder (maybe you can find another for free, but I don't know many encoders, sorry).
