Problem ripping DVDs made with the new Panasonic DMR-80

Here is the problem.

I recently got the new Panansonic DMR-80 DVD recorder with the 80 gig hard drive. Great machine! Everything pretty much checked out until yesterday when I decided to copy a home made DVD that I had made on this recorder. Well, to make the long story short, I cannot.

I made several DVDs with this but every single one fails to be copied/ripped!!

I am not new at this, and I have been doing this for some time now. I threw everything I had at them. I tried DVD Decrypter, Smart Ripper with and without AnyDVD. I tried to copy plain...etc...

Power DVD chokes on them on two different computers. But, WinDVD plays them with some hesitancy.

On ripping, it keeps giving me a read error. Sometimes it give me "error, cyclic redundany check". I get hunderd or so "broken blocks" with Smart Ripper!

Here is the peculiar part. All these DVDs play without any problem of any kind in multiple standalone DVD players and in great quality.

The only thing I have not changed is my media (Optodisc). But, I have been using Optodisc literally hunderds of times without this problem.
But again, if it is the media, how come they all play just fine in standalone players. Usually, it is the opposite (most people can play their DVDRs on the computer but have problem with standalones)

Any input is appreciated.

I have the DMR-e50; similar model without the hard drive.

I'm going to assume you are using DVD-R and not DVD-RAM. If I'm wrong then that's your problem right there.

Now the one thing I'm doing is every disc I create on there, I run it through the computer to get that stupid menu off the top of the disc. (I've been taking people's VHS copies of weddings and converting them to DVD) I run it through DVD Decrypter, DVD2One, the Record Now and it's smooth. I've even used DVD Shrink once (the tape ended and I got part of a football game at the end of somebody's wedding) and haven't run into any trouble.

I would try another media, but there might be something fundemetally wrong with the recorder.

One more silly question; I also assume you are finalizing the discs before trying to rip them? That would also cause the problems.
