I was backing up my purchased copy of Cars and ran it through DvdFabDecrypter in full movie mode and burned it to a dual layer 4X disk and it came out perfect..
Ran it through DvdFabDecrypter in movie only mode and got a VIDEO_TS file just a little to large to put on a 4.75 GB disk so I opened it in Shrink and Title 1 was shown at 4,463 MB at 72.2% compression. Ran Backup in full disk mode with deep analysis and got a VIDEO_TS folder of 4.35GB..Perfect for 4.75 disk burn..
Used Nero 6.x.x to burn to 4.75 8X disk and came out perfect and played on my stand alone DVD player. Wanted to put it on higher quality TDK 16X disk so I burned with Nero at 16X speed. Worked great on computer but not at all on stand alone player. Burned another 16X disk at 12X speed and it worked great on both. What is the reason for this my curious little mind keeps asking me? Any thoughts?

Hi mmraam
Sounds more like a burn speed problem than a Nero or Shrink issue.

Players are picky & burning at 16x on a TDK 16x might be hit or miss on the player.
Burn at 8x for better results - even though at disc may say it's certified to burn at 16x doesn't mean that's the best speed to burn it at.
TDK also uses different manufacturers and some not that good. The only discs I burn at 16x (usually just burn at 8x or 12x on 16x) are Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden.

OK Thanks..That's kinda what I thought although I have burned other movies at 16X and they came out OK..While I was burning it at 16X Nero may have glitched as the time remaining reset twice during the burn..No biggie from now on I'll just burn at a slower speed so I won't make a frisbee out of the disk..

No problemo mmraam :)
Nero does tests throughout the burn - to try and calculate the best burn speed. The burn speed doesn't stay at 16x all the way thru - it will fluxuate. One thing Nero doesn't do is give the average write speed.

So if your's had that little glitch(s) on that one then something was up with the disc.
