There are two formats of DVD. There is DVD-R and DVD+R. Some DVD players can play one or the other while other DVD players can play them both. What formats can your DVD player play?

I just rebuilt my computer but used the same drives.I use memorex media and [+] and [-]formats both used to work on my computer. The brand of my burner is BUSlink which i purchased at CompUSA.I'm thinking this problem has something to do with me bulding this new comp. I just dont know how to go about fixing it. Thanks

Hi Mumbles19,

Welcome to aD -

Memorex is pretty good for data but since they job out their discs now the quality control sucks.

When you first begin to burn a disc the laser goes through a test of it's ability to write to the disc. It's at this phase that a Power Calibration Error occures. In other words, your burner tasted your media and didn't much care for the taste.

I reccomend using RiData, Ritek G04's or Verbatim DataLife - it's my feeling that by using a good media you'll be spot on -

cheers

When you rebuilt your PC did you do a fresh install of your operating system, or did you just let it boot normal with all your new hardware without a re-install of your operating system?

If so try a re-install (recomended when a new m'board has been put in), also the m'board drivers did you install them?

You could also try....
If you have another machine in the house or a m8, try it in there see if itll burn? (eliminate your PC!!)

Did you burn a DVD-R or a DVD+R? Lots of DVD Players will only play DVD-R or DVD+R but not both.

Does the dvd play in your pc, this will validate that there IS actual data on there?

If it does, then I would suggest that either your player will not support those discs you are using, OR the burning software used has not created a fully compliant dvd............

Hey everyone, I have a real problem here, its related to this topic. I have a Sony DRU-700A Dual Layer DVD±R. I use Nero 6 to try to burn movies i have. I have used DVD Decryptor and I just use Nero to copy those VOB files and such, and the movies arent to big for the Fujifilm DVD-R disc's i bought. So icopy the VOB and other files to the Video TS folder. After i burn them with no problem. My DVD player doesnt play them. The DVD player plays DVD±R plus MPG, So i cannot figure out the problem here.

THCill, Welcome to aD,

I think I have the jest of your post - What brand of media are you using to burn your DVD's ?

Check out my recommendation s - Many different problems are traced Back to poor grade media - your complaint sounds like a media problem.

cheers.

Mumbles,

What make and model is your Buslink burner? Is it an internal or external drive? Are you running any other programs while trying to backup? Also can you post your full system specs?

Where do i find your reconmendations ScubaPete, and I am not too sure what you mean by brand of media, they are DVDs like Family Guy and stuff. I just want to burn them and be able to watch them on tv. I got a DVD player for home that play both DVD+-R and RW. So i dont get it.

THCill,

You can find good deals on media here:
http://www.newegg.com/app/manufact.asp?catalog=71&DEPA=0
http://www.meritline.com
http://shop.store.yahoo.com/supermediastore/index.html

And if you live in the U.S. you can go to BestBuy, CompUSA, OfficeMax, OfficeDepot, etc ... to find branded Verbatim media.

But ... before you buy any media check your standalone player's compatibility. Find out which media works best with your player. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers
