my dvd player can play DVD-R's and this movies because i made a copy of the same film to a dvd-r disc but it didn't play very well and i had to restore my pc because of certain issus and i try to burn the flim again but it doesn't work. i think the problem may lye in the IFO and BUP files of the dvd because they look different from how they looked before i restored my computer so if anyone knows a solution or has any advice that would be great
Are you saying you were able to burn the DVD but have playback issues on your standalone? Can you post the log file from Nero, it is in My Computer, Program Files, Ahead, Nero and then Nero History?

and the dvd won't play at all i insert it in my dvd player and it makes a loud noise and says please insert a disc i've tryed it on my dvd player and my xbox and still the same message but i know i'm burning it right as i've burn't this flim before. o yes i forgot to say that i've tryed to burn another dvd this time it was a IMG file i burn't it with Alcohol 120% and i get the same error
Try another brand of media, this is not really very good. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia.p...&hits=25&country=&search=Search+or+List+Media Go with a name brand such as Sony, Verbatim, Fuji or Maxell.
ok do you think this was the problem then as i did have my douts about the media as they was so cheap i brought a 25 pack of mirror platinium for £6 lol.
opps didn't notice that thanks for all the help looks like i'll be forking out for some quality media this time.
