I am having problems with one iso image I burned to dvd. The dvd plays fine in my pc, but if you put it in a normal one it sees it is there but will not play :confused: I burned the image using alcohol 120% I know it's not the type of disk as they have worked befoe in this player. So I am wondering if I have made a **** up somewhere?? Can anyone help??

Is it a film DVD, also what disc type did you burn ( + or - )?

Film dvd and the disks are http://www.pricestorm.com/moreInfo.asp?code=DTWDVDMR02&tabGroup=GROUP-PC&tabGrpCode=COMP1&tabSelect=TAB4

Try burning it at a lower speed rather than the maximum.

What drive are you using?

Pioneer?

What dvd player are you using, perhaps it doesnt like dvd-r disks, you could try a dvd+r if your recorder supports them and see what happens.

Have you tried another player...I have burnt a couple of discs that will only play in some DVD players.

I always burn at the minimum speed, going from cd experience it's the best way.

The DVD player has played these disks before. I am starting to think it has something to do with the file now. God I hate not knowing much about a task you are doing lol.

Cheers for the responses

Okay mate heres a quick suggestion use nero 6 and what is all this about iso's, never dealt with them in burning dvd's and i have burnt quite a few dvds, will be more than happy to give you a step by step guide for dvd shrink 3.2 and nero 6 mate.

ISO (ISO9660) is an image format. You can burn an ISO image using Nero 6 by going to Recorder => Burn Image.

A very hand tool is to get some image-reading drive-emulation software, such as d-tools. This creates a virtual cd/dvd drive and alloys you to mount an image (analogous to putting the disc in the drive), enabling you to test the image. If it is corrupt in some way, it will more than likely show up whilst reading the image file off the hard disc as a virtual device.

Also well handy to "test" images without burning them to disc, potentially creating a coaster

Alcohol 120% is another handy bit of software for mounting and burning all sorts of image files.

oh right ok i just decrypt using dvd shrink and then make dvd my adding video ts files in nero and then burning, i am not saying other ways do not work but this is the way that I have learned.
