I burn using DVD decryptor with a Philips DVD+RW SDVD 6004. I use Optic-Disc DVD+r's and the DVD's are not playing in my Laptop, which i use for the buring or my playstation 2. They DVD's play in most Standalone. My method for creating dvds starts with Decrypting with DVD Decryptor, Shinking with Dvd2one, creating an image with ifoedit/imgtools from the Video TS files and then burning with Decryptor. When the DVD is placed in my laptop, Interwin, and Interactual dont recognize the a DVD at all. When I open the disk, it is full but has no files on it. Help would be greatly appriciated, this has happened on my last 10-15 burned DVDs.~ Adam

Hi parnesa,

You could try to burn your VIDEO_TS folder with Nero (demo version available).

If you're not willing to spend money for a burning soft, you can build the ISO image with DVD Shrink (free). Run it, open the VIDEO_TS folder created by DVD2One, click on "Full backup", select "ISO image" as output type. Finally burn the ISO image with Decrypter.

DVD Shrink is a tool intended to compress video files. But it won't touch the files created by DVD2One because they can already fit on a DVD-R. Just make sure you select all audio tracks and all subtitles in Shrink.

Cheers,

Daba

I know DVD+R's won't play in my Toshiba laptop. Try DVD-R's and see if that fixes the problem.

Thanks Daba, i will try that method and hopefully things will change. As for DVD-r's I cant burn using those. I can read anything, but can only write with +r's. thanks guys

For burning files, an alternative to Nero would be DeepBurner, it's free but it still has some issues with "medium in drive not writable" errors with some writers. The next release will supposedly fix this :)
