I am posting this thread to tell you my experience with Nero's problems burning DVD's. First off, I'm burning Ritek dvd-r 1x on a Sony dru500a. I used doom9's "getting the best out of CCE" to rip, re-encode, and author Goldmember. Prassi Primodvd isn't compatable with the sony dru500a, so that wasn't an option for me. My first try to burn the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS files, I used Nero 5.5.9.17 in "DVD Video" mode. This disk palyed in my sony drive, but not my Apex 3201 or Playstation 2. Second attempt, I used imgtool 089 to build an image and then dvd decryptor to burn the image. Another failure. Very frustrated, I desparately searched these and other forums searching for another method. I read about Nero's reluctance to burn compatable dvd's, but a few posts suggested burning in "UDF" mode in Nero, so I tried that next. It wouldn't even read in my sony drive this time.

Then, I read a post that suggested burning with imgtools .99 and Nero 5.5.9.17. Finally, I have a compliant DVD that plays in my Apex 3201 and Ps2 (however there is some skipping in the Ps2, but I think that is due to the cheap media). I wrote this in hopes that anyone having trouble with Nero might get some more suggestions. These are only my results and can't be guarenteed to work.
