i've been backing up some of my dvds using "1clickdvd" software. the playback on some of the disks seems as if they are dirty. it gets really choppy and i get the little out of place squares dancing around the screen. i can pull the disk, put it right back in and play the same section of the movie and it will playback fine. i only copy the movie without any extras. i'm wondering if anyone would know if this is a hardware, software, or media problem. thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

Try running one of your discs through DVD Identifier and let us know the manufacturer ID :)

Hi,

If you're shopping in an electronics store the media to look for would be either Verbatim DataLifePlus or Maxell.

Ritek is primarily available online though at very good prices :)

Hi,

Any of the three I listed will be very good. The Verbatims and Maxells tend to cost a bit more especially in a retail store whereas the Riteks can be had online for very good prices :)
