Hey all,
I'm having a problem. I'm in the process of backing up my commercial DVDs that I bought. I recently bought a new Samsung DVD burner (DVD +/- R DL) but it won't burn discs that play in my standard DVD player. I'm using either DVD Shrink 3.2 or DVD Fab Decrypter 5.1.2.2, then burning with Nero 8. Everything seems to be burning fine, and the burned disc plays on my computer without any problem at all. But when I go put it in my standard DVD player, it doesn't recognize the disc. I've tried a couple things (and have wasted may discs in the process :)), and have no idea what the problem is. Here's what I have ruled out:
1.) The player. I use a Playstation 2 as my standard DVD player. I know this isn't the problem because I have made copies of my movies before and watched them on there with no problem.
2.) The blank disc format. I'm positive my DVD burner burns both DVD+Rs and DVD-Rs, but I tried it anyway since I have blanks of both. Both burned correctly without any problems, and both played fine on my computer.
3.) The firmware for the burner. Everything has been updated and installed correctly.
4.) The burning speed. This new burner has a higher burning speed than my old one, which I thought maybe my old computer couldn't handle. I lowered the burning speed and am still having the same problem.
Does anybody know if there is anything else I can try, or if there's anything else I have to do? Any help would be greatly apprecaited. Thanks.
