problems with my dvd home player

[manrecob]

Well, the problem is that once I get the files *.cue and *.bin. When
I put in my dvd home player the CD-R I can watch fine the image and sound, but only for a couple minutes, after that the dvd player stops and gets freezed. The programmes and steps I follow are:
- I use the pack Dvd2SVCD, of course, version 1.0.8 build 1.
- Cinema Craft Encoder 2.5
- For burn my Cd-R I use CDRWIN.
- My Dvd Home Player is Philips Dvd 711, i think it is totaly compatible.
Some help would be appreciate. Thanks.

Have you read and used the sticky "Foolproof way to burn a SVCD to a disk" at the top of this forum ?

Is your burned CD playing OK on your PC with your software DVD player ?

Hi there,

in addition to avdmb's suggestion - do a search with the words "philips svcd" and you will get about 100 hits about problems with philips players. Something like this:

Seems they are making a lot of trouble - although they had quite some influence oon the SVCD standard.

HTH,

Are you using SVCD subtitles? They made my Philips DVD 622 to completely freeze before I upgraded the firmware. A firmware upgrade is recommended anyway, since I had a lot SVCD playback problems before the upgrade, now it works ok (except the subtitles don't work as they should, freezing the player for a while sometimes and the subtitles turn off once in a while)
