Ok heres the deal, I have over 200 copies all fine. Lately, my new copies, when I play then skip and blockup about half way through, They will still play for the most part but VERY jumpy. I am using DVD Shrink to take original to comp. and them DVD Decypter to burn to blank DVD-R.
Not sure on the specifics of the Burner. My Dvds are the Fugifilm 8x discs. And it is not the discs. I have used them since I started this. When I take from comp to disc using decypter, I have allready reduced it to 2x. I looked through all my settings, thay all seem fine as per the guides?? I am really confussed?!?! Could my burner be going bad??
Thanks in Advance

Fuji dash 8x has more than 1 different manufacturer. Taiyo yuden and fuji-film are the 2 manufacturers that I am aware of. Those tys should code as Ty-g02 and should be the better quality manufacturer.
You may have gotten a hold of those fuji-film,so the quality will really be magnefied in certain stand alones.
Tell us what those MID codes are,because they are likely to be different codes from different batches of fuji.
Play some of those backups that have issues using the same dvd-rw drive that burned them and view them.Look at the area where they act up.Also try them on other stand alone players if possible.
um??? Lotta technical words lol. Ok the new ones I'm almost sure are the Fugifilm03, Not 100% sure about 80% I would check but at work right now. What I do remember though is that I Always buy fugifilm 8x and only burn at 2x though. What I do know is that tis bundle of blanks I bought at Best buy while all the others I bought at Frys Electronics. I will check those code things whn I get home tonight. And post reply.
I have to finger out why AD won't let me post on forums though, something bout cookies, but I will reply.tommorw morning for sure.
Also decypt will tell me the MID codes right?? The box to right under manufactur I think. Oh I will have reply up by 1:00 pm central time. forgot new movies out today, so gotta run home for lunch!
the old Dvds were = Disc Id YUDEN000 T02-00
Name Taiyo Yuden Co. Ltd
New =Manufactur Id FUGIFILMMO3
ok so they were diff discs. Problem found. But Now, are the 100 new discs I bought trash or are thay still usable?? idea... what if I changed speed to 1x?? Other ideas very very VERY welcome please
Yuden000-T02 are of the plus format. The fujifilm-03 is of the dash format. 2 different formats!
Sounds like your stand alone is having problems with your dash backups,even burned slow.
Try a burn at 1x and also a test burn at 4x.I've been finding out I get more errors on the 8x speed media at a lower burn speed.
Can you try a different burn program like Nero? There's a free trial of Nero 6 at their main web site. You can then set DVD Shrink up to autoburn after the encoding with Nero,which I do on majority of my backups and that combo allows me the best playback on my stand alones and pc drives.
You're getting that player to recognize those fujifilm-03 discs,it's just your stand alone player is picking up something about those backups making it difficult to play.
How did the playback look when you used your 8325 to play it back on your pc?
well i got it I think, only tried 1 last night! I will let you know about the rest tomorrow! BTW you know about cookies, AD tells me my cookies are set wrong at the house comp but I cant finger out what it means I'll write down what it says and find a spot to post it! Thanks a bunch for your help. I will post tonights results tom. morning.
