sooo i'm back with another question about burning dvds. (this is the other topic i posted
http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,48212.msg303532.html)
i started burning some tv show episodes using dvd flick this morning. after the 4-5 hours it takes to do its stuff, i went to play it in the dvd player to see if it would work. it didn't. and i don't know why. i checked the video files that i used to make sure there weren't problems with them and they all play. back in december i had successfully burned all the episodes onto dvds with the same files i used today. (my friend lost the original ones i made, which is why i'm burning them again.)
when i put the dvd into the dvd player it said "loading disc." that particular dvd player can play cd-rs and dvd-rs. my computer (laptop) gave me this error when i went to play it...
i don't know what i did
so i need to know if that was something i did wrong, my computer being stupid, or the actual program...
another question, when you put a blank dvd-r into the disc drive of a computer, go to my computer and right click, properties of the blank disc, should the pie chart of a blank disc show up in the color of free space or used space? the pie chart is in the "used" color, but at 0 bytes. a dvd-r that actually works is all in the "used" color but at 4.35gb of space. so basically my question is do blank dvd-r and cd-r's pie charts too, i suppose show up as all used space with 0 bytes of space? hopefully that's not too confusing...
