I am trying Anydvd and am having a problem with some of the copies. During playback, maybe halfway or more, the picture will start to disintegrate into little squares, slow down or even freeze. Sometimes, There will be a loud "crack" sound.
I use the Anydvd and dvdshrink and a 16X dvd+ disk. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong...or what is wrong?

The most important factor in this equation would be what is the brand of media you are using?
After that What program are you using to write your DVD? What speed are you burning at? How much compression an average do your movies have in Shrink?
We can better help you out if you can answer all of those questions :-)

I am using Verbatim DVD+R, 16X disks, RW. Have also used Memorex DVD+R, 16X,RW disks. I'm not sure, but I would say the problem was more frequent with the Memorex. I started using them After installing AnyDVD. I run AnyDVD and then use DVDSHRINK. I save the file to hard disk (external HD). If I am correct, this uses Nero 6. to burn the the dvd from drive L. Does that info help.

chaswhitc welcome to aD.Quote "I'm not sure, but I would say the problem was more frequent with the Memorex" thats exactly the problem. Okay media is key stick with verbatrim or try some TY media also the slower you burn the better the quality I never burn above 4X also try to use DVD-R they are more compatiable with stand alone dvd players(tv top) it makes a big difference with older dvd players.good luck post more if need any more help.

Hi there,
Like others said, buy better quality media and BURN SLOW !
2x or 4x MAX and all your playback problems will go away <wink>...
Ok most of them !

I almost forgot try to shrink the file to be about 4400mb sometimes the ink on the disk doesnt get fully pressed to the edge of the disc.I have had that problem too it causes skipping,blocking and freezing.

My Verbatim +R's burned at 16x play just fine on my stand-alone player, but just for the heck of it I did a test. I burned the same movie from the same disk at 16x then at 4x. I was amazed at the difference when I checked the two disks with DVDInfo's PI/PIF error checking. At 16x the PI peak was 66 and the PIF peak was 12. At 4x the PI peak was 4 and the PIF peak was 2! What a difference. I guess from now on I burn at 4x like you guys have been saying. I figured since they played good, it was ok to burn at 16x. Just my 2 cents worth. :-)

AnyDVD only removes regions and protections. It does not encode, shrink or burn. The problem is most likely your disc/burn speed.

Thank You ALL. I really appreciate your response and the helpful information. One other question. You say to burn at a slower rate. Should I still buy 16 X disks and burn at 8X or buy 8X disks and burn at 8X? Or, would it be better to burn at 4X, either the 4X or 8X or 16X disk? I guess what I am trying to ask is, does the disk speed make any difference or is it just the burn speed?
Again, THANK

To limit write errors my advice would be to burn everything at 4x. Whats a few more minutes especially when it can determine a good or bad backup. Speed means nothing to me. I want quality. Thats why I use dvdd to rip, dvdremake to edit, RB/CCE to encode, and nero to burn at 4x. It may take 2 1/2 hrs to make the backup from start to finish but the result is excellent. I only use verbatum dvd+r media (MCC003) booktyped dvd-rom for maximum compatability with stand-alone players.

chaswhitc It doesn't matter what disk speed you buy it is all about the speed you burn. i burn alot at 2x but i agree with Mort81 and what he says about 4x I have had good results at that speed too.I dont think you would see a difference. glad we could help that is what is so great about this site all of us who use it love to help.
