DVD Won't play in DVD player

[Bort]

I've looked all over these boards for something similar and cannot find a solution.

 

I'm using vista with a new DVD writer, and -R discs. The player is a region 2 -R player. I have set ImgBurn to region 2.

 

the log is:

Any ideas?

Did this same media work before with your DVD player? You should try better media, like Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden.

By the way, where did you set ImgBurn to region 2? As far as I know there's no such option, since ImgBurn can't read commercial DVD-Video discs.

right click writer description

I know that option, but it changes the writer's regional setting, not ImgBurn's, which doesn't have any.

All media once written is region free you asked where the option was or rather said there was no such option and indicated as such by saying since it cannot read etc etc

 

but whatever

dontasciime got what I meant when I mentioned changing the region setting.

It's possible that the discs I have suck, (pick them up from *ahem*...?-Stretcher... today) though when I put it in my pc it has the file on there as an avi file (which was it's original format, before i converted it to an iso with imgburn) and it plays on my pc just fine.

Whether this rings any bells for you guys I don't know...

get some better disc's try verbatim ty's or mcc have a look on www.svp.co.uk

 

 

edit try this link http://svp.co.uk/products-solo.php?pid=179

ImgBurn doesn't convert anything. All you've done is burn an AVI file to a disc.

 

Unless your player supports playing AVI files, it's never going to work!

[dontasciime]

Doh

[Bort]

Ahh! I thought I was converting it when I put it in "build" mode. So it seems that wasn't the case... Thanks for the help.

You need to try a program like ConvertXtoDVD
