    I'am getting really frustrated with this damn DVD burner, I'm about to throw this crap out the window!!! I used BBmayos guide to converting avi files and other formats to dvd. I folllowed his guide step by step. When I take the dvd to play it in my standalone dvd player, it tells me " playback prohibited by area limitations". I don't know what else to do, the region free button in dvd shrink is checked off. I'm thinking that this file could be in pal. How do I convert it to Ntsc? I believe that this is the problem. But I 'm a dumbass, so I could be wrong. I wanted to ask you guys, I've been asking bbmayo and he's been cool to help me out. But I don't want to keep on pestering him. Could someone please help before i start tearing this thing apart!! Thank you

    Don't know if you received my Pm, But when I burned the file onto a dvd, it was all pixelated and the picture had a gren bar at the top and the bottom. When I took it to work, played it in the dvd we have here and it came out perfect. What i'm thinking is that at home I played it in one of those combo tv's that come with a built in dvd, I didn't try it in my standalone dvd player. What do you guys think?
