DVD not playing Recode made DVDs!

[KeithXP]

My standalone DVD player is not playing the movies made with Nero Recode. This behavior happened once before when ImgTool changed and ISO 9660 wasn't checked. I have a sneaking suspicion that this appears to be the problem with my Recode. (Is there a way toThe only problem with this is that my Xbox is not recognizing the Recode DVD's either. That is strange. The ISO 9660 wasn't necessary for it to play in there, so there must be another explanation.

Any ideas? I've also been burning straight to DVD. That may be a problem too.

I have found that using recode to make the DVD structure and ImgTool to actually burn the DVD is working. Is there some problem or adjustment in Nero that can allow me to make these DVD's work? I would love to let Recode do the whole thing.

KeithXP What I always do before I burn my files is Get VTS Sectors in IFOedit and of course, I preview/test for playability.

Some seem to think it's better to leave alone. I ran a Get VTS Sectors on an IFO the other day and it made a modification for a title set I didn't even touch?!

I've had that happen before. Or immediately after ripping, I run Get VTS Sectors and it still corrects something.

I read once that it could have been a disc mastering issue.

Of course, I've also read that it could be that IFOedit isn't a perfect tool.

So I'm not sure.

There are DVDs I immediately Get VTS Sectors after I rip and sometimes, errors are detected and corrected. I didn't even edit one thing yet. I seem to assume that whoever authored the DVD didn't do a good job. Anyway, I've done alot of DVDs and I definitely have a lot more mileage in editing them too. As a backup religion, I always get VTS Sectors after I rip and before I burn. I may also do it more often after an important edit just to test playability. If I encounter any problems, my ratio would be about 1 bad DVD out of 20. There are some DVDs out there that are just stubborn to backup.

My 2 cents.

I always use ifoedit to GET vts sectors. especially if nero complains about re-allocation problems. I never burn a disc if it complains about that allocation problem. Its just not worth the risk.
After I let ifoedit fix sectors that error usually goes away.

Yup yup,

I always use IFOEdit when I author or modify a DVD and everything worls great. What I was wondering is why I can't just let Recode transcode and do its job and then let it immediately burn to DVD-R. Each time that I do that, the disc is unusable in the DVD player or Xbox Player. It plays fine on the computer DVD player. I have fixed this by letting Recode burn to a directory and use ImgTool to burn the directory to DVD-R. ImgTool allows me to make the disc ISO9660 compliant and then they all work.

using Get VTS sectors doesnt work on my DVDstructure to correct, what can i do more to fix?

[mrbass]

use ImgTool Classic to make your .iso and auto burn it with DVDDecrypter

[Ewoud]

That will finally burn the DVD, but I think it would not play correctly in my standalone, the warnings are not for noting.
There must be something wrong allthough softwar eplayer plays it correct.

[Kedirekin]

Correct. If VTS sectors are wrong, ImgTool will not correct it and you will end up with a disk that (probably) won't play in a stand-alone.

What exactly do you mean when you say "Get VTS sectors doesnt work on my DVDstructure to correct"? Did you get an error message when you invoked Get VTS Sectors?
