I just bought a Phillips DVD622 from Best Buy and it doesn't play my backups. It says it plays dvd-r and dvd+r formats. The backup will load but then break up when it starts to play. I am using 8x dvd-r RIDATA discs. I want to know which dvd player to buy that will play anything I throw at it. I also have a GE dvd player model GE1101P that has played eveything so far, but it is an older model that I can't find anymore.

None, of my DVD's will play in Philips 622/37. error "Bad Disc". I have this same Phillips DVD622/37. I use DVD Shrink & Nero with Sony DVD-R or Staples DVD+R; neither have worked. The philips website has an update to this player labeled Cheetah17-2V1.23-DVD622-37-W0-F180-A1E0-050509A.bin, but have been un-sucessful in updating by CDR following the exact instructions. All the DVD backups have worked on my old RCA dvd player perfectly. What's up, new copy protection technology in the players?
Theory:
player realizes no encryption is present.
shrink size problem?
removed languages (Spanish/French?)
Anyway sure would like to get past this. Any tips or suggestions would be helpful. I am thinking a setting in DVD Shrink or Nero would solve the problem.

My DVD writer is the new I/O Magic DVDRW 16x using Nero 6 burning software. I recemtly watched 4 different burned DVD's on an Emerson DVD/VHS Combo player and again it works there. Here is the latest count on hardware that will/won't play my DVD's:
plays: (RCA, CYBERHOME, EMERSON, I/O MAGIC DVD & IBM Laptop DVD)
no-play: Phillips DVD622

I/O magic 16x burners are outsourced to different manufacturers.I have 2 of them,1 made by benq-1620 and other made be Empa-middle east fizo.That empa drive was a piece of crap.
Download this free utility and see what your actual burner model is and also the firmware version.

All is says is firmware version "A074" vendor specific "/". Also, used Nero Info Tool (nice tool by the way - can download from I/O Magic website) and it says the same with the serial number.

Is that an external burner?
I've posted to several threads a few months ago and that firmware version sounds like the same ones members listed on their external I/O magic 16x.

It is an internal drive..Don't do the externals. Like the semi-permanent drives.
Tried something different with a new burn. Removed Region-Free and just put Region 1, no change. Works on RCA, but not on the Philips player.
Question: is there anyway to burn the VIDEO_TS folder contents instead of just the files? All the burning programs seems to just want the files to write, not the folders.

update:
I used DVD Shrink to a folder then manually used Nero 6.x Express "Red Folder" to burn (w/ DVD-R & +R) as in this example to backup the AUDIO_TS & VIDEO_TS folders. See Item 15
http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=221453
Confirmed the folders existed after the backup, then tested: The DVD works on my PC DVD rom and an Apex DVD Player unit I purchased for a relative 2 years. Albeit, not on the Philips 622 DVD player..
thinking about scrapping this 622 player, never to use Philips dvd products again!!
