I've been copying several DVDs using DVD shrink on a desktop with Vista. The DVDs seem to burn successfully, but when I try to place them in a brand new DVD player, they can't even be detected. The odd thing is that these copied DVDs work just fine on my laptop. I'm using Sony DVDs, so it shouldn't be a quality problem. What could be causing this?

Shrink does not burn. What program is doing the actual burning? Please post a log file.
99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

Sorry about the confusion. I use Nero with DVD Shrink. I'm not sure what you mean by a "log file," though.

When Nero burns, it records a log of the process. That log is very important in finding out what could be the problem.

Here's the strangest thing. Normally, I did the whole process through DVD Shrink--just selected backup, let it encode, then Nero took over, though it didn't give the option for a log file. However, If I only use DVD Shrink to encode, then manually burn the DVD using Nero, it works. I'm not sure how to explain this...

So any disc that is burned with Nero starting automatically from DVD Shrink, does not play in the standalone, but if burned manually will play?
What media do you use? DVD+R or DVD-R?

That's correct. I use DVD-R.

jmeyer40,
Another inquiry...are you by any chance using Nero 8?

Hmmm...I was hoping you were using DVD+R, and maybe the discs were booktyped in one instance and not the other...and can't be using Nero 8(autoburn from DVD Shrink), that's known to act weird, so can't count that one...
I don't know, strange, curious to find out the cause.
