I joined a site where you can download movies,and burn to disc.it took over 10 hours to download the movie,it saved it as an avi file,it said to convert the avi to dvd useing avi2dvd.after the conversion which took over 5 hours it says to find the image iso file and use dvddecrypter in iso mode.i have made 5 coasters and no luck i will include the step by step,steps i used. BURNING WITH DVD DECRYPTER INSTRUCTIONS: Launch the DVD Decrypter software Place a blank DVD in your DVD-burner Under the 'mode' tab select 'ISO' --> 'Write' Under 'source' click the folder icon Browse for the directory folder created earlier which contains the ISO file (will be listed as "DVD_Image" if burning to DVD) or the Cue or Bin file (if burning to CD). Select the ISO file created by avi2dvd and click 'ok'. Check 'Verify' You may lower the write speed (4-8x tend to work well, depending on your DVD-burner), the lower the speed, the greater the quality. Click on the “Drive to disk” icon (green play symbol). The disc should start writing, wait until it has finished. If you checked 'verify' the disc will automatically eject, reload, and be verified against the ISO (to ensure it was written properly). When i try to play this disc in a standalone dvd player it says disc is unplayeable and not able to record. any help would be very helpfull i am not very happy about paying this site to download movies and they assure you that you can burn movies to disc. Donren.
Does the burned disk play ok in the PC? If it plays ok in the PC and not in the standalone, then it may have been converted with the wrong video type. If you are in North America it needs to be in 'NTSC' format - not 'PAL'. Does the converter program (Avi2dvd) allow a selection?
Either type (PAL or NTSC) should play on the PC. If you have VLC, then it should be able to play the ISO file. If it can't play the file, it probably wasn't converted properly. http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_players/vlc.cfm
