Hiya guys,

Had a couple of questions - any help you can give me is much appreciated.

1. I recently made a 3 CD rip, something funny happened along the way tho - I adjusted the bitrates in DVD2SVCD to come close to the maximum of my standalone. When playing back on the standalone - the first two cd's played perfectly, not a hitch, however the 3rd had several moments of weird "blockiness"? during which the movie would turn from the normal pic to green, yellow and orange blocks - LOL, anyhow, I'm operating under the assumption that the bitrate is too high and that is what is causing it - your thoughts?

a. I looked through the guides and did'nt see anything specifically applicable to my problem - how can I re-encode with CCE or possible -tmpegenc to lower the bitrate? Got several weird errors with both.

2. Just recently I bought a new burner (liteon 32x), previously I had used an Acer 24x to burn my svcd's w/ NERO and they had worked great! Now however, with the liteon - they're not readable in my cdrom/dvd/standalone ??? I've also tried burning them as slow as 6x - I'm scratching my head right now trying to figure that one out?

Thanx in advance for any suggestions or help you guys can give me - keep up the good work guys !

What you could try is go download "Deamon Tools" here is the link http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19415 also follow the directions in this link on burning while using deamon tools.. See if this help you out if so let us know.

Another thing have you used the burner for other types of burns and did it work? I have the lite-on 24x and has burned everything flawlessly. If you are sure that the burner works properly and have tried the "foolproof way of burning" Then try lowering your bitrate.
