dvd burner only burns right sometimes....

[John.F.Remedy]

Ok, need a lil help. I have a few dvd burning programs, (super dvd creator, convertx, dvd fab, and a few others.) When I burn convert avi files to dvd vob's, some conversions play correct, some don't play at all. Happens on home and car dvd players. Any answers why this would happen? Will prop for answers.

what do you get on the screen when you insert the dvd?

before you burn off a dvd turn off your anti virus and screen saver and anything else that might disrupt the burning converting process and most importantly while its doing its thing leave your pc alone...dont web surf or play games etc...all that shit can fuck up the process.

hope some of that shit helps.

You said most of them worked, but others don't. Are you using different types of blank media brands?

Thanks, Its hard to say, cause when I burn a disc, I dont touch my cpu and screen saver is not active.

Burner is about a yr old.

even when u put in a retail dvd does it still says no disc?

Another question I have to ask. When the disc didn't work on the dvd player, did you try to play it on the pc? If it work then it's the dvd player, if it doesn't it's the disc burning that's the culprit.

Try using this program ConvertXtoDVD, I use all time before I had a divx player.

Nope, put in a regular dvd and it plays in the system.

Thanks. Thats what i use to convert, but when i burn to a disc (same prog) it doesnt play. What I
ve found is that if I convert w/ convertXtoDVD to a folder, then burn the dvd folder using dvdfab, it plays. Guess its somewhat of a cure, but its a pain in the ass to switch back and forth to programs.
