Burned discs playback issue

[al3586]

Hi, I am new to the forum and a big fan of your product. i do plan to donate because i am so impressed with this product. My question is my main DVD player in my living room is a sony Blueray/DVD player whcich plays Dual layer burnt disc with no problem, however when i burn to single layer DVD-r the disc most of the time gets stuck and then jumps ahead and basically ends up being unplayable. What perplexed me was the disc says it was burnt successfully. So on a whim i played the disc on an older DVD payer in another room and the disc works. The way i can check is if i try to skip the next scenes if there is an issue it will get stuck. Any idea why it will work on one player but not another and any suggestions on fixing it since i really want them to play on the main household player. Thanks in advance for your help..all my best..Al

Post a log of you burning + verifying one of the problem discs.

 

To me, it just sounds like your Sony player can't read the disc very well. That's usually caused by using low quality discs or the drive just not burning to it very well (low burn quality).

You really should re-enable the 'Verify' option. It checks the disc is fully readable and that all the data is present and correct.

 

Ditch the 'CMC' dye discs and get yourself some decent Verbatim 'MCC' or Taiyo Yuden discs instead.
