Windows XP pro Athlon 64X2 5200+ processor 4 gigs ram Nvidea GeForce 7950 Video card 300g Western Digital HD Problem: Ripping and burning DVD's with DVDDecryptor. Making 1:1 DL DVD's. Process is no problem. No errors or anything. When I playback in my tv DVD player, towards the middle of the movie it starts getting pixelized real bad and then freezes and jumps to the next chapter. Any ideas???? I've tried burning on the slowest setting.
Thanks for the post iluvendo. I will try the DVDFab. I like to make full clones on dl disks. I'll see if this works better for playback.
sfross, a few things 1. make sure your DVD player supports playing back DVD+R DL backups 2. use Verbatim DVD+R DL only! 3. burn at 2.4x or 4x max 4. booktype the DVD+R DL to DVD-ROM for better playback compatible if you're drive supports booktyping 5. there are other options other than using expensive DVD+R DL media being it cost 1.50 to 1.80 each compared to a DVD-/+R SL blank that cost about 25 cents each. Options 1. doing the movie only cutting out the previews/extras etc.keeping the compression at 75% or better won't hurt picture quality playback 2. use an encoder like DVD Rebuilder. takes longer but you get almost a perfect quality playback on a DVD-/+R SL blank using it. consider it!
Zo hit the nail right on the head and I quote him: you have a media issue! the only time this happens is when you have a smudge on the DVD or most and more like it is the player has a hard time reading your disk and finally it pixelates! for DL disks only use Verbatim and follow Zo's advice!
Thanks everyone for your input, it's been really helpful. My player does support the DVD+R so I will try Verbatum disks. I was using Memorex DVD+R DL disks. Again...Thank you.
@jjoy.......... wrong!!!! This is a media issue and not a software issue! When you get pixelations, freezing, and jumping to next chapters and such, it's because of the media not being able to be read by the player! It is not a burning issue. so suggesting to use different software to rip or burn won't help sfross's problem-----> Media Problem! And follow Zo's advice above!
