I downloaded the trial version of Cheetah DVD burner to try it before I buy it. I am new to this and these are the steps I performed.

1) Used DVD Shrink 3.1 and did the full disc back up of a movie and copied into my Hard Disc. It created two folders VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS (it had no files in it). Verified the content by opening the folder with Win DVD and it played the movie. Used the option of region free.
2) Downloaded Cheetah DVD burner from Cnet and installed in my Sony Vaio Laptop PCGGRT270G model.
3) Opened the application and copied the VIDEO_TS folder and it's content. Named the Volume as Terminator 3. Somehow I could not copy the AUDIO_TS folder. The blank media was DVD-R (matrix)
4) Clicked on the write disc and it wrote the disc in an hour.
5) Played the disc in my laptop and it played the movie as it was playing with the folder.
6) When I tried to play it in Samsung DVD player (DVD 711) it says it could not play the disc.
7) I tried to again with another movie and named the volume as ICE AGE same results. It played in me laptop but could not play in my DVD player.

Please help me or suggest a full proof software which can copy the DVD movies to blank media.

Sounds like your Samsung doesn't like DVDR's. It's not uncommon to run into a set-top player that won't play writable discs. I'd suggest trying your copies in some other set-tops to verify this since your laptop seems to play them fine.

You might try using higher grade discs like Ritek or Fuji if your copies with the matrix brand discs won't play in other set-tops. The lower grade discs often give problems.

Your using the right software since they play in your laptop alright. The AUDIO_TS folder isn't needed so don't worry about that :)

After reading guides I think you may need the AUDIO_TS folder on your DVD to make it more compatable even though theres nothing in it. If it wont let you copy it create a folder and name it AUDIO_TS. Hope that helps :)

When I verified the content of the Burned Disc It has automatically created the Audio_TS folder. Still it does not play. But when I use the other burned DVD it plays in my player. One of the Burned DISC was actually the copy of that disc only. Does it require any other setting while using the DVD Shrink or while burning with CHEETAH DVD BURNER.
