Mister Mike Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 I have a Lite-On DVDRW SOHW-1633S external drive. I created ISO files from VOB files from the binary newsgroups using ImagBurn and then burnt them to DVDs. When I play these DVDs on my Toshiba SD-3990 DVD player, they do not work properly -- the video is either pixellated and/or pauses. But if I play the DVD on my Philips DVP-642/37 DVD player, it works fine, as it does in the recorder that made it, and also on another DVD player on my computer. I thought maybe it had something to do with the media, since I was using Fuji DVD+R (16X) so I went and bought Verbatim DVD+R (16X), but the results are even worse. I tried recording at 4X instead of the default of 16X and there was no improvement. Is it possible that this Toshiba player just doesn't like DVDs that are made on this Lite-On recorder? The Toshiba will play DVDs that are made on friends' computers, including the same Fuji media that I am having problems with. I could just use the Philips DVD player, but the problem is the Toshiba's DIVX reproducing capabilities are much better, and can play back a much wider variety of movies that are seriously distorted on the Philips or won't play at all. What is weirder -- if I treat the Fuji DVDs as a giant CD-ROM and burn AVIs as data files to it using Roxio Creator #6, when I play the files back on the Toshiba (as DIVX files), there is no pixellation or pausing. Any suggestions?

What the other guys are trying to say is it might work better if you care to go out and actually buy the DVD. Regards
Mister Mike Posted April 28, 2007 Author Posted April 28, 2007 Considering how on this page of one of the Imgburn guides http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=1778 it shows how to create an ISO file from a directory called "Star_Wars_IV," you guys are pretty funny.
blutach Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 No-one has said the author of that guide didn't own the DVD. You said you got the files from the internet. Case closed Mister Mike. Regards
Altercuno Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 Might be worth changing that label in the guide...
cornholio7 Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 i don't see why i should change it when i own the original and besides i could alter the name of a folder to call it a film that was in production if i want to , the point as mentioned by blutach is , i didnt download it from the internet as stated in your post Mister Mike oh well i'm guess i will make a back up of terminator starring Arnies great great grandchild
Altercuno Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 Sure, just wanted to avoid 'misunderstandings'...

blutach Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 Gee, I wish cynthia was here. She has the uncanny knack of providing great images and right now, I need one of a troll In any case, Mister Mike, given the experiences people here have had, there's no reason to assume your downloads are not copyrighted material and much safer to assume they are.
