    Hi
    Can someone please help me.. I have ripped my dvd's using dvd43,dvdshrink and nero onto dvd+r disk and it wont play in my xbox(not chipped). It does play in my dvd player however. So I ripped the exact same file to a dvd+rw and it plays in xbox but not in dvd player. Can someone tell me how to rip onto dvd+r and have it play in xbox and dvdplayer. Thanx

    some xboxs just cant read dvd+r or are very picky about the brand of media you use.
