I burned a movie on a verbatim dvd+r 16x disk at 16x and it scored a 95 in the nero quality test, but for some reason it cannot play on my stand alone player(can play on everything else). The thing is that I've already made several back-ups of my movies on these disks(burned at 8x and 16x) and they all scored 95's and played fine on my stand-alone.

Anyone have any idea what could have happened? Is it possible that it is just a defective disk that scored inexplicably high on the nero test? Or is it possible that the disk's booktype was not set to ROM by dvd-shrink?

check the disc and see if its reads dvd-rom

and i wouldnt make it a habit of backing uop dvds at 16x just to be on the safe side go 8x max.

Although informative, that thread didn't really answer my question for this particular burn. I'm still puzzled at why a 16x burn which scored a 95 on the nero test, would fail to play on my standalone while my other dvds, also burned at 16x with a score of 95, are able to.

I didn't put, print or write anything on the disk. It was just a 16x burn on a 16x disk.

I'll just right it off as a bad burn. I guess these disk aren't as reliable when burned at their rated speed.
