DVD Burning Problems?

awesome! Thank you hanshak2915!

So if I use the "makeyour own dvd-video" option that I was before to design a dvd and click save it will make me a folder that I can burn like you just showed me using nero express?

Cool, glad I could help. The DVD seems to be surely worth it. I think if you use "make your own dvd" you can take an MPG or AVI and burn a DVD from it. To burn downloaded DVDs the Nero Express way is the better one.

OK here lets see..... Looks like the usual cast of characters. VOB, DVD Movie Info, Back up file of the IFO

I just downloaded the Ben Folds Five DVD from here, and it's telling me that it's 4.33GB. But, when I try to burn it using Nero, all of a sudden, it tells me that it's over 5GB, and will need 2 discs to burn. Is this common? And what can I do to fix it?

How are you burning this in NERO? Do you have a real version or only the OEM version?

Do not use Smart Start!
Do not use Nero Vision Express!
Use Nero Burning Rom.
Search this forum for this same question! http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/...14&postcount=2

Yeah, I'm using the OEM version. If Burning Rom isn't on that, then I have no way to fix this problem?

Have a look at this thread. If Nero is changing the size of the files, maybe you've got a similar problem.

I get an error tryin' to burn this one as well ("reallocation" error)

[KingCustean]

I think ONES is doing the job. Nero just wouldn't work, for whatever reason, even when I used Express.

How much is the registered version? And also, will the option "burn data disc to DVD" let me watch it on a DVD player? Thanks for the recommendation.

I had Troubles with some of the torrents when I used Nero.So I just got rid of it. Nero seems do do well with audio but sucks doing dvd

Could you be more specific... like posting a list of the filenames?

Sorry about hijacking this thread I really need to figure out why this folder will not burn.

do you have ifoedit?

check out the interactive screen shot for more info on what it can do. I always like to use Get VTS sectors and process all IFO files before burning DVDRs

If there is a thread for this, sorry, I couldn't find it.

Lately I seem to be having a problem with dvds I burn for people that will not play in their player. Recently I did a big trade in Japan. Some of the dvds would not play in any of his players, but looked fine on his laptop, so he was able to reburn them. But... sometimes I make dvds for friends who don't have a computer. No, they are not either Pal or data discs

My player will play just about anything, so even if I check 1st, I can't tell if it will work for others

I have a PC with XP, I use TY disks, and I use nero. Anybody know what might be wrong? Or possibly the best way to insure compatibility?
Thanks

When it comes to standalone players, compatibility can be a crap shoot. I have 4 DVD players in my house (3 of them similar model Sony's) and discs often work on 1 or 2 but not the others. Ive also received numerous trades where some of the discs played fine but others weren't even recognized except on my PC. So far my Philips has played every disc Ive thrown at it.

From what Ive read it seems to depend on the players. Some prefer + or -, while others prefer certain brands. Having a newer player seems to help. Some people have said that slower burns help, but Im not to sure about that. Burning high rated media too slow can make worse burns.
