View Full Version : Rat Race freezes on settop

So after rempeging Rat Race and Remuxing, I burn with Prassi. The disc comes out fine for playing on the pc, however when I try to play it in the settop it hangs up/pauses. You can get past this by searching forward, but it will do it a number of times throughout the movie. I was able to accomplish this on the 6th day with no problems. Any ideas from anyone out there would be appreciated, thanks.

Gryphon75,

i'm having the same problems on RatRace. Also on Bond - World is not enough, and Bond - You only live twice.

have rempeg2 about 6 times on each of these movies...trying all kinds of combinations of settings.

can't get them to work. pauses every chapter or so.

I've posted this problem in a few places and no one seems to read or be able to help.

i'll post if/when i find out.

i have found that on movies where it locks up (but you are able to forward past them) on set-top players, it is a physical media based problem. i burnt LOTR on a esbuy disc and then on a higher grade disc.....the esbuy disc had 4 different freezing points in the movie, and the other disc was perfect. also, when i burned oceans 11, it hardly played, but when i wiped all the finger prints off of it, it played flawlessly. so check your media to see if u fucked it up, or if it came fucked up.

using the same dvd-rw, i tried both my problem movie and another that i didn't have to rempeg.
i have narrowed it down to something in rempeg2 or ifoedit remuxing.
