I'm learning about dvd backups and so forth, anyways I downloaded a movie and I encoded it with winavi (avi to dvd) and the problem is that I cannot view the dvd in a ps2 and my friends dvd player but I can watch the movie in my portable dvd player and it my computers dvd player.

I would like to know if the cause of the problem is that clone dvd used pal over ntsc or is they're something else I am messing up on.

I mainly use Nero 7, clone dvd, winavi and nero encode, the movies are in avi format.

thanks.

hi

doesnt winavi set PAL / NTSC ?

it may be the type of DVDR used the ps2 and player doesnt like it? is it a + or - format DVDR?

what is the dye info from off the disc?

Nothing here to see, move along folks.

Can you explain what the dye is? I'm lost with that one, anyways I bought some dvd-r's from Office depot, they are pretty thin disk and they were cheap (50 for 13.00)

Do you know what ps2 reads compared to regular dvd players?

hi

use either dvdinfopro or dvd identifier or DVD Decrypter to read this dye info off the disc

its probably cheapo discs, which if you ask anyone here will tell you they cause no end of hassle

get some verbs/TY/ritek

Pop a blank in your drive - have DVD Decrypter set to iso mode - read or write. Look for the manufacturer id - here's a pic:


Post back the manfacturer info. Also what burn speed are you using?

As Rotary said it's probably cheapo discs - optodisc would fall in that category.
So try the suggestion media. Besy Buy has a sale this week on Verbatim - 50 for 14.99. For Taiyo Yuden & Ritek (verbatim also) you can buy online from here:
http://supermediastore.com
On those optodisc take the burn speed down a notch and see if that helps.
My ps2 plays the +r format (not sure if all do) so does your friends dvd player support the +r format. Could be another reason.

Cool, so basically I look for disk with the following...


1. DVD-R over DVD+r
2. Speed compatible with my burner which is more like 8x, not 16x.

hi

nice one binkie7...

yeah optodisc is a sad disc...

your link http://supermediastore.com/supermediastore/taiyo-yuden-silver-ink...

they are good see the TY codeing... Media ID: TYG02, site that show code dye info are good, so you can see what your buying... (im a Ritek GO5 man at present = cheaper)

those should sort you out and also try burning at 4x speed to start with go a little faster later, when alls well...

------------------------------------

now on a different note if your drive can booktype you can buy +R and booktype your burning to DVDROM which is for better compatibility, but 95% off good discs -R will run on a ps2 (they picky suckers)

this said dvd decrypter can booktype but need to know your drive! you may get those +R optodisc booktyped to dvdrom and they will play (BURN SLOW!!!!! @ 4x - may even need 2x on optodiscs???)

sorry for not going into too much detail as i always try to see the knowledge of the person here first before we all bombard with too much info... trying to guide you step by step...

also this may sound odd but try other makes of drive like pioneer as booktype as the drive may be a nec but with liteon guts/insides

what app shrinks your originals down? can it output as an ISO? as dvd shrink can!

Tried all 9, all failed....

I'm going to get better diskettes, I think that's a must.... it's really no rush right now to burn movies...I can wait a bit....

As for imgburn, it seems cool but it will take a while to learn.

I'm dead tired, it's 3.36 am, I will be back soon when I get the diskettes.. (new ones)...

thanks again.

P.S. I don't have dvdshrink but I'll install that tomorrow as well.

hi

just noticed you have files in avi format, i use TFM The FilmMachine to make to iso to dvd, it does the lot for you! this app is easy and free!

burn iso with imgburn

it has its own encoders but i use an outside encoder called CCE (only certain types can be used in TFM)

quailty truely awesome!

and ConvertXtoDVD is brill for this too! easy as pie on avi or mpegs
