Certain DVDs I burn (Using Shrink and Nero) play fine until near the end where it freezes completely or freezes and jumps ahead

Certain DVDs I burn (Using Shrink and Nero) play fine until almost the end were it freezes completely or freezes and jumps ahead.

 

Please be more specific so we can help you. Without details we are at a loss.

 

If you have a DVD 9 as Original and a DVD 5 as a back up.....you are not compressing or not enought with DVD Shrink.......so you are burning all the way to the edge of the back-up Disc.

On DVD Shrink:
Re-autor > Compression Settings > Video (choose: Custom Ratio) and move the little bard from right to left to compress.

Try to compress around 4,300MB Just to play save...on your Top Green Bar.

Hope this help

 

I have the latest DVD Shrink and Nero. Running on Windows XP, burning to an HP Movie writer dc5000, using Sony DVD-R media. I am making backups of old and new movie dvds

Mrguss I will try your suggesting and make a new copy of a DVD that I know did not play.

 

One other thing besides what MrGuss mentioned.

Burn at 4x or 2x, faster speeds can cause issues like the one you mentioned.
