dvd playback problem

ok i had a xvid video vile converted with vso convert to dvd to make video ts folder then burned with nero on ty media at 4X.my 2 dvd players i have play the dvd fine.tried in my dads dvd and vcr player and it wont play ??/ all the book says that it wont play in pal .i think it is converted in ntsc. i wonder why it wont play please help . how could i find out if the video ts is in pal or ntsc?????

 

What kind of media did you use? Some players are picky and don't play both formats, DVD+R/- R

 

i used sony dvd+R ty media >>>>>>>>u think its the media ???/

 

What DVD burner do you have? If your burner supports booktyping, you can booktype the DVD+rs to DVD-ROM for better playback compatibility.

If you go to the following link, you can find out what kind of media your player supports:

i dont think it supports booktyping . should i try to burn onto a dvd-r?????? do you think it will work its a sanyo dvw-7200 that site you gave dont list it

 

Sorry man, I'm no psychic :~)!
But if it is an older player, they have better compatibility with DVD-R media. I have a friend that has a VCR/DVD combo(a Sanyo, or Samsung, not sure). That thing is so picky it drives me nuts every time he calls and says the disc don't play. My player, an Apex, plays anything you throw at him! +/- R, VCD, data CDs with mpegs...I guess you won't know until you try the DVD-Rs.

 

its a dvd vcr combo >>sanyo dvw-7200 . i know what u mean i have 2 apex dvd players and they play anything . if i burn to DVD-R if that wont work i guess it never will

 

That Sanyo that my friend has, if I borrow movies form my College Library, somwhere in the middle of the movie it freezes or skipps. The same movies play with no problems in my player. It is the worse player I ahve seen. I don't know the exact model, butit is a Sanyo. It did play the DVD-R that I burned though. Not the +Rs.

 

thanks for the info try dvd-r ?????/

 

tried the dvd-r still wont work ???/ i wonder if i needed to convert the xvid file or just burned with nero expres without converting

 

Before you give up on DVD+R booktyped to DVD-ROM, give it a try. That is why i use +R media and booktype to DVD-ROM. It should give you higher compatibility than just a +R or -R disc, but as stated by cyprusrom, individual players can be picky. If it doesnt take a ROM booktyped disc, then i try the -R format. Thats just the way i do it. ROM booktype is supposed to be the highest compatibility we can get in a burnt disc. I say supposed to be, as you never know with electronics and digital stuff.

 

Hi Max!
Good to see you around!

 

Hi Cyprusrom,
Just cruzing thru the Nero forum. You ppl have it all taken care of. I feel like a vulture looking for a log.. All of them are picked over Keep up the good work.

 

@Maxburn
Here is something for you!
It just puzzels me! I never checked my logs, because the burns are successful...I was just looking for some reference, jut to see how it it supposed to be in a success burn, and I see the "ILLEGAL KEY REQUEST" error, and I just don't get it...the discs play absolutely fine! It happens with TY, Verbatims, Maxell MIJ and MIT, all DVD+R X8.
I scanned some of them with Nero CD/DVD Speed, and I get quality scores of 95-97. I just noticed that with everyone that I scanned, the 3 to 5 quality points drop right at the beginning of the scanning. That error looks like it would be media incompatibility. Yet, the burns are successful and the backups play perfecly!

Hi buddy,
Is that hacked firmware?

as this is all i could find listed at the firmware site for that drive:
http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2157
1.05 is the only one listed. If not, i think 1.05 is an update to 1.Y5 or is it more advanced than 1.05? Its early/late for me, so my brain is fuzzy right now.
And it looks like you might have a firmware update for the other drive too:

http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=123
And on this one:

That code comes out as

Now if i just knew what CDB stood for LOL The thing im using says this about those 0x05 errors [bold]These errors are difficult to specify a cause for. Most of the times the problem is in the system.[/bold]
But you say your getting good burns, and good scores. I wouldnt worry about it too much. I too notice some errors right at the first of a burn on some of my disc scans, and/or sometimes it happens right where a layer break would be, i get some pif spikes. The scores come out in the 90s so it plays back fine for me.
That illegal request occured right before the booktyping, but it booktyped it correctly according to the log. Maybe nero and your burner were trying to booktype at the same time, but they seemed to have worked that issue out between themselves, and went with the drives instructions for booktyping instead of neros booktyping instructions. If thats what happened. Just a guess on my part.

 

Thanks locoeng, I added it to my homepage links. So he has the latest modified firmware? That link showed a 2.51 for the same drive right below the 1.51. Is that a modified firmware update??
Look at me, asking questions to something i dont even have a burner for.
Id better get some sleep, or eat something. I think my brain just ran out of gas..
Oh, i see what i was doing, i was looking at the 5500 firmware while looking for the 3550 stuff. Got turned around/confused but that happens to me all the time. Ill have 2 or 3 windows open, and have even replied to the wrong person/window by trying to multi-task too much.

Driving that train, high on cocaine. Casey Jones you better watch your speed. Trouble ahead, trouble behind, and you know that notion just crossed my mind.(now why did that song pop in my head?)

 

Hi Max,
LOCOENG
Yes, it is modified firmware from Liggy. My Nec wasn't able to booktype, so I had to get modiffied firmware.

The reason it puzzles me is because I get the same error with no matter what media I use, and like I sad, the scans show a PIF spike right at the beginning of the scan. But no, I am not worried too much, as the playbacs are flawless, the burner is quiet like a sleeping baby, I have absolutely no concerns. I totally love it.

The other drive, it is just a reader, but I will update the firmware. Now, if the burner and Nero try to booktype at the same time, how would I fix that?
The reason I'm trying to figure why that error, is just becuse I was giving other some advice, and here I am , stumped with my own log!

 

@LOCOENG
LOL!
Yes, we wouldn't want that,let the secrets to get out!
I wsed Liggy's firmware that came packaged with BinFlash. Later, after I flashed, I saw some news as how Binflash 1.24 that I flahed with had a bug. I can try and flash it again with the new 1.25 Binflash. That's what you were talking about, the NECwingui?

Although, I have no other problems otherwise, and like you say, " If isn't not broke, don't fix it"
