DVD Shrink ISO Problem?

[amorphis]

Using DVD Shrink 3.2, I've re-authored some dvd's and saved them to my hard drive as ISO image files before burning the images using DVD Decrypter and Nero.
The disks would'nt play or even be recognised by my dvd drive.
Anyone know why?

Will they play on your computer? What happens when you put them in your DVD player/burner in your computer? What do you mean by re-author?

The ISO images made by DVD Shrink play from my hard drive but the burned disks won't play on my DVD player/burner. Disks created using other methods will play. By "re-arthoring" I mean removing unwanted video and audio streams and leaving the main movie.

So many potential problems, here are some basics to check;

DMA on? Firmware updated? Burning at 4x Speed or lower? Sufficient Free Memory? Background Processes Stealing CPU cycles? Quality Media? Driver Conflicts?

The DVD Shrink FAQ & Guide (http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=48762) at Digital Video Forums is a good place to start if you aren't sure about the answers to these questions.

Hi!

1) Are you using a different brand and/or format (DVD-R or DVD+R) of burnable media now?

2) Is it only one DVD burned from an .ISO image that has behaved this way?

3) What is the brand and model of your burner?

4) What is the brand and model of your standalone DVD player?

Sorry folks, this is embarrassing, I just re-authored a movie using DVD Shrink and saved it to my hard drive as an ISO file then burned a disk using DVD Decrypter. This time the disk worked OK. Why my Emprex DRW1016IM DVD drive failed to recognise two previous burns using the same DVD+ media and method, I don't know. Thanks for you time.

Glad to hear you've resolved your dilemma - whatever the cause ;>}
