Having pixle and picture loss with proven back ups that have worked in past? Is there a dvd player that is better than the ordinary player? Had this problem with an older player and though my back ups were bad but it turned out to be the player itself. If anyone knows which player works best please let me know .
This is not the first time this has happened!I bought a new player and my back ups played with no problems for about a year? I back up with ( Icopydvd software ) the disks came from costco and the burn rate is 16x the burner is a sony . Case in point I backed up (The Guardian)last week,Iplayed it that day and it ran perfectly.Ran it again last nite with my girl friend and had pixle loss and skipped the last 5 min's???
You probably need to go about backing up your movies at a new way.
Burning speed is to high.
IcopyDVD software is not the best software. (probably one of the worst)
DVD Media I am not sure what brand you are using as you only mentioned you bought them from Costco, but you need to make sure you are buying quality media.
Give this guide a try Pacmann777 guide and remember to burn at a slower speed a good rule of thumb around here is to burn at half of the rated speed of your discs so in your case burn at 8x.
