stopping of movie

[machura]

One little problem:

Thomson DTH5000 - CD-RW10x Verbatim.

From time to time, when I playback movie, picture on moment stop or fall out sound. I think, it may be 3x-4x on CD. It is not in same time. And when I get back with "REW" and playback "bad" part again, all is OK. What can be wrong ?

I'm using 192bit audio and standard value for bitrates, but I dont using convert from 48 to 44kHz.

[Kedirekin]

I can think of two likely explanations.
1) the disc has a higher max bitrate than the player can handle
2) the disc was burned at too high a speed

You said you were using the standard bitrates, which I assume means the max was set to 2498. Do you have selectable (CVD or SVCD) subtitles on the disc?

Did you burn the disc at above 4x speed?

[machura]

Thanks, it can be in speed, I'm burning it to 10x :-) I'm still testing. Max bitrate I have standard from DVD2SVCD.

Do You think - player badly read CD at high speed burned and then must be some sectors readed repeatly and buffer underrun, ok ?

Ok, I will try it burn to 2-4x.

DTH5000 hasn't selectable title ( but when is SVCD in player, is possible choose 1-4, on/off, but no effect - may be bug in firmware ? )

I tried burn it 2x, but still same. Picture stop at 1-2sec. I dont know, what it make last version od DVD2SVSC or Thomson is fake player ...

Does this happen when you play the disk on your computer using a software player like Windvd or Powerdvd?
You can go to http://www.vcdhelp.com check that page out .there is a list you can look at see how compatible your dvd player is when it comes 2 svcd's

on PC is all perfect. I think, Thomson is fake. When I open it, all is Samsung (M105/205).

This stopping is randomly and next playback this parts of movie is OK. Dont buy Thomson :-(.

Well if your looking for a cheap descent player 2 buy look at apex or something like that...i think you can get a single disk 1 for $70.00 or a 3 disk changer for $138.00..

I don't know if apex1500 (or its clones) are so cheap outside the USA:mad:

[chainsaw135]

DUH I didnt even think about that:(

[machura]

It is very nice price .-) Is possible switch region to 02 ?

From Mozart - "I don't know if apex1500 (or its clones) are so cheap outside the USA"

USA price of an Apex AD-1500 is about $80 - $90. They probably have a higher "value" to those of us into DVD, however. The Apex AD-1500 units that have a serial # beginning with a " D " or an " E " can have the ROM flashed to make them macrovision and region free. I have TWO AD-1500's - One at home, one at work - I flashed both and both work fine. The newer AD-1500's whose serial # begin with an " SV " CANNOT be flashed. Many Wal-Marts in the USA still have the older flashable Apex AD-1500. Get 'em while you can ..
