Hey guys. I'm having trouble with data files. I've transfered them onto a DVD disc. It plays on the computer, but not on DVD player(s). I have many of the programs to burn DVD's:
-any DVD
-clone DVD
-DVD shrink
-DVD encrypter
-RipIt4Me
-DVD Fab platinum 4
-Nero smart
None of them can read the data files on them. Files vary from: avi, wmv, and mpg. HELP!!!
Thanks for your time. Really appreciate it.

If you have a regular DVD plyer that does not have WMV/mpeg/Divx support, the DVD will not be recognized.

pepzanadu,
You need a certified Divx DVD player to play these files. Otherwise, they need to be encoded into DVD. For this, you can use DVD Flick, a freeware.

Okay, so I downloaded DVD Flick. I followed the instructions and everything seemed to be going alright. But when it got to finalizing the project, Img Burn opened up. Still looked like things were okay. Then it froze in it's own window and had this information:
I 21:47:57 ImgBurn Version 2.3.2.0 started!
I 21:47:57 Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium Edition (6.0, Build 6000)
I 21:47:57 Total Physical Memory: 2,094,664 KB - Available: 917,056 KB
I 21:47:57 Initialising SPTI...
I 21:47:57 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices...
I 21:48:02 Found 1 DVD±RW!
So I don't think it's done yet. What do I do? Seems that it doesn't recognize that there's a disc in the tray. So close, yet so far...
Thanks again ya'll.

And that's it, no error, or anything?
I never trust the automatic-chain-launching aplications...
I normally save the compilation to HDD and burn manually. Did you have DVD Flick st up to save an ISO to HDD?

DVD Flick actually finished the project, or at least that's what it said. But DVD still couldn't be read. I'll try it again, maybe I forgot to do something.
Thanks

If DVD Flick finished the project, did you set it to save to HDD? Look in the folder that you selected as your "Project destination folder"....

I apologize cyprusrom, but I'm not as savvy to know wether I set it to HDD. What I did notice when I went into the settings was that the TARGET FORMAT was set to PAL, and from my understading it should be set to NTSC. Hopefully that makes a difference. Otherwise, not sure what to say. Still learning the ropes. As they say: better to be a fool for 5 minutes than to be a fool forever.
Thanks again!

It looks like you've successfully written the file onto a blank medium. If it won't initiate playback, then my hunch is video standard incompatibility. If you know you're in Region 1, then set DVD Flick to NTSC.
