Hi,
i´m having a trouble when makinng backups from my dvds when i play them on pc they look great but when i go to my dvd stadnalone player it shows some scenes pixelated.
Why is that?
i´m on a pentium 2.4ghz, 512 ram with geforce video card.
i have a LGgsa-4160b dvd burner, LG711 and Precission PVD528s standalone dvd players.
i use ridata blank dvds

and i´m using dvd ripper to get the dvd content to pc, clone dvd to strech the video content to dvd5 and burn the dvd back up.

i already read a message about the quality of the cds and the probles that they can make... so its just about dvd blank quality? or there are something that i can fix?

Thanks in advice for any help

Hi -

Sounds like a media problem, but you might also try ensuring that all your unnecessary background processes/applications are disabled on your PC when you're burning.

I've had similar problems, but mine were to do with either a) rubbish media or b) using DVD X Copy Xpress (which is crap, I don't care what anyone says).

Since I switched to a combination of DVD Shrink & DVD Decrypter I've only had poor media to contend with.

Hope this helps.

i use ritek G04 and usually y burn them at 4x.

and as i told before the problem is with the standalone players, the dvd backups plays well on pc.

i think that is a prob of the burning process, but i used Nero and clonecd for burn and i got similar pixelated scenes with both.
for now i´ll try to close al backbroun applicattions and reduce the burnung speed.

if there are another sugestion please tell me

Ya try burning at 2x. Some stand-alone players can be a little picky and the burners can read their own writing overlooking some write errors the stand-alone can not. It could still be a media issue. I think G04s are becoming a little inconsistant lately. My last batch I had to burn at 2x and it was still no guarantee (same problem as you).

Some other things to check:
Remove adware, spyware.
Defrag hdd.
Update firmware.
Shutdown background processes.
