backup blowing thru chapters and sitting there on title screen, showing all 0's on counter. Strange occurences. After cruising thru all chapters it goes back to main menu, with music, and sits there, with nothing on counter. Ridata discs have been nothing but trouble, were on sale at newegg, could this be why? Anyone else having trouble backing that movie up??? Using clone and anydvd, both latest. Susupect bad blanks. Anybody having problems/suggestions???? Here's what anydvd says, nothing out of ordinary....... Summary for drive E: (AnyDVD 5.9.5.6) Drive (Hardware) Region: 0 (not set!) Media is a Data DVD. Booktype: dvd-rom (version 1), Layers: 2 (opposite) Size of first Layer: 2021344 sectors (3947 MBytes) Total size: 4018513 sectors (7848 MBytes) Video DVD (or CD) label: MRS_HENDERSON_PRESENTS Media is CSS protected! Video Standard: NTSC Media is locked to region(s): 1! RCE protection not found. DVD structure appears to be correct. Changed firstplay: Jump directly to TitleMenu! Found & removed invalid VOBUs! Autorun not found on Video DVD. Bad sector protection not found. Emulating RPC-2 drive with region 1! should be simple..........?? mcmenace
Well I got to bottom of problem, bad ridata disks from newegg, 100 ritek, money cheerfully refunded, NP. Burned with memorex of all things and it worked just fine. Newegg get's my vote for their support, ie refunding total price and telling me to keep the remaining disks. Thanks for the help y'all. mcmenace
You might want to reconsider using those memorex blanks. General consensus in the forum is they suck. They might burn OK, but don't seem to last OK. I personally have never used them -- except for CD's. My son has (against my "fatherly" advice) and he had to reburn 7 movies. Just a thought.
@tsquare43 Yeah you are probly right, I heard nothing but bad things about them.They burn OK but can't vouch for longevity, hate to re-burn things, such a waste of time. What do you recommend??? steeler fan mcmenace =))
I bought quite a few 50-pk of the Office Depot branded ones when they were on sale (buy 1, get 1 free type and one time was buy 1 get 2 I think). I have also used Verbatim & Maxells with no problems. Will probably try the TYs next just to see how they are. I still have 2 OD and 2 Verbatim to use.
If you have an OFFICE MAX in your area, Verbatim's go on sale for $14.99 for a 50 pack about once every 2 1/2 months. If you live in Bullhead City, AZ good luck buying them because I wipe them out every single time and they don't take rain checks! Hehehehe
