I've been using DVD-RB for a couple of weeks now. I use CCE basic, DVD Decrypter and ImgBurn along with it. My burner is an HP DVD Writer H40d.
The last few days I've had problems with DVD's from this setup not playing (or not playing well -- pixalation and jumps) on my media room Denon DVD player. But the very same DVD's will play fine on the cheap GO+ DVD/VCR combo player I have in my bedroom.
Any ideas about where the problem lies?
What further information, if any, would you need to figure out what the problem is?

What type of discs are you using. You can find this information in ImgBurn.
99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

Also, how fast are you burning? Also check at the Denon site and see if there is any firmware updates for you player, Denon has them for certain models yours may be one of them. Here is a site that shows some.

My DVD player (Denon 1815) does not show up on any list with firmware updates that I can find.

Is this your player
http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers.php?...earchcomments
It is not capable of playing Dual Layer media, which maybe why it is giving the player fits. Are you booktyping the media to DVD-Rom for better playback. The player should not be having a problem with -R media, but it just may not be recognizing it. My older Toshiba will not play newer Sony Media, just does not recognize it. You can try blowing some canned air in the player to blow out any dust, and make sure you are not burning at too high a speed.

I have to plead ignorance here. What does this mean?

Aren't the original DVD's dual layered? For example, my original "Dead Like Me" DVD (Episodic TV) -- isn't that dual layered?
The player plays the originals fine. It also played my backups fine at the beginning.
While I can't definitely tie the timing down, I did recently upgrade to the newest version of DVD-RB. I can't say for sure that all the problems began after the upgrade, but that is a possibility. Is there anything in the upgraded version that could be causing the problem.

Original DVD's are pressed not burned. The media you are using has a dye that the image is burned into. Not all media is equal some is better than others. If you are using DL media, you would not be using DVDRB as there is no reason to compress. Since you say your disks play fine on another player then it is something in the player not the burn. Try cleaning your lens, or another media.
As for booktyping/bitsetting this is something that some burner have the capability of doing with +R media. The standard for industry DVD's is DVD-Rom, or a -R format. Some older players will not recognize +R media and need to be fooled into thinking +R media is really DVD-Rom. The -R and DVD-Rom is the most compatible format for all DVD Players. What is the make and model of your burner?

Actually, I still use DVD-RB when I use DL's. I read somewhere here that, even if you aren't compressing, if you force encoding your end product will be better.
Is this not something I should be doing?

The thing with DL is to make a 1.1 copy of your disk. You just need to rip to iso which is an exact image of the file and then burn to DL there is no need to encode something that does not need encoding.

Just as an update, I replaced my Denon player with a Panasonic DVD-S52S. All problems disappeared. This player plays all my discs just great.
Thanks for all your help.
