i've been using VSO divx to dvd to convert divx files to dvd files

it worked fine for the forst 3 or 4 files i converted and played fine in the dvd player

but now the past 3 i've converted don't play in the dvd player

i get an error on the dvd player and the tv says check tv source or something like that

i haven't changed anything on the VSO to dvd, i keep it on automatic

and as far as i know, all the files have been divx i've converted

anyone know the problemo?

If you are talking about the free one, that's a years old BETA version which is better off in the trash heap. There are many newer apps, pay and free that do a superior job.

Sounds like a PAL vs NTSC problem. Set whatever app you use to your TV system.

See: http://www.afterdawn.com/glossary/terms/169.cfm

You can also try DVD Flick for your conversion:

The beta version has menu creation options.

4:3 = Full screen

16:9 = Wide Screen

NOTE - the free version of VSO had a bug some files it wouldnt get aspect ratio correct - on some files been there talked it out with them.
--------------

just wondering if VSO had a bug on pal and ntsc with free version???
