I convert the avi file and create VOB files and
Ifo........etc.....etc.....etc.....

start burning the dvd (everything seems fine to this point) but when I play it on my dvd player I get

"PLAYBACK PROHIBITED BY AREA LIMITATIONS"

I'm so frustrated I'm about to throw this machine out the window

I use dvd infoedit to verify that the vob is in the NTSC format, and all regions are enabled.

Any help?
Thanks

I think your DVD player is confused by having all the regions enabled. The disc should be burnt as region free.

Other dvd's I have burned, have had all the regions enabled. I thought all of them being enabled does mean region free.
