hello! there is this website (harunyahya.com) which has free religious avi files for download. i converted avi to dvd. and burned it to a dvd disc. first time, it played real good on my Toshiba player. when the video ended, the dvd froze (blank black screen) instead of going back to the menu.

usually what my dvd player does is that if i put in a dvd it first says:

READING

and after it detects that its a good disc,

says:

DVD

then it starts playing the disc.

what happend when i tried playing the burned dvd the second time is that it said READING for a longer time then usual then it said "Incorrect disc".

i dont get it. first time, it plays real good just like an original dvd. second time, this? and by the way, the second time i played the disc was right after i watched it the first time. what happend?

stuff i used to make the dvd:
DIKO Free 0.78B1 - for conversion from avi to dvd format then
DVD-Lab 1.4 BETA 1 - for making the menu and burning.

im sorry if this msg is in the wrong forum. and just to let u know, this is my first post and this was the first dvd i ever made.

thanx alot!

What kind of media are you using?? The blank disc's you use make alot of diff. I dunno if this is the exact cause but it could be a place to start.

this is the type of blank discs i have:

Acro Circle
DVD-R
I-8X (cant really figure out if its an i or a 1 in the starting. see, thats how dumb i m in this stuff)
4.7GB/120min

what discs do u use?
whats ur way of burning AVI to dvd?

this is what it says on the box of my dvd burner:

Model: 16X DVD Dual Drive with double layer writing.

LITEON
16X DVD+-R/+-RW Drive
16X DVD+R
16X DVD-R (looks like its highlighted with blue color)
4XDVD+R DL
8.5 GB Data/4 hours video/2000 songs

Internal ATAPI/E-IDE

i just thought maybe all this stuff might help u guys better understand my problem or something. dunno what any of that stuff means though. i just need to make this thing work so that i can watch the AVI files from that site on my toshiba dvd player.
