Burning video to DVD
« on: December 07, 2008, 11:49:24 PM »
I had a mpg video I wanted to burn to a DVD+R. I let Ashampoo Shrink and Burn convert and burn video to DVD+R , and I wasn't seeing playback issues on my computer.

But when I went to play it on the standalone DVD player connected to TV, the video played fine until about halfway through, video stopped playing and it automatically restarted from beginning and I let it run and it did that again. The DVD player is pioneer brand, I checked and it said that my DVD player model should be able to playback DVD+R.

I've had some DVD+R work, others not. Is Super Video DVD creator OR NERO better softwares to use? Have tried those without problem playback on PC but I have not tried any DVD burned with those on standalone TV DVD player.

By the way, the DVD+R's I was burning to are TDK brand. I do have a DVD+RW I can test with but just want to know of any idea what's wrong?

After trying countless of DVD burning programs, and being unhappy with them, for one reason, or another, I finally settled down for ConvertXtoDVD, and I'm finally happy. It has tons of handy features, and what's the most important, my DVDs have no problem to be played in any device.

Same here. After trying many burning programs, ConvertXtoDVD has been the best.

TMPGENc seems to look good, been testing it out.

But ConvertXtoDVD, if you're sure it will make playable DVD's then that's good. So you are saying you get very few coasters and most dvd burned works just fun regardless of DVD-R or DVD+R with this ConvertXtoDVD?

I also use ConvertXtoDVD without any problems......

Ah........2.1.8.191 here.

I would assume they fixed the memory usage problem in Version 3....

When converting, it would gobble up the RAM and CPU Usage.

Most video converters will do this, some less, some more. I have to say, that ConvertXtoDVD, at least my version is pretty good in this department.
CPU usage keeps touching 100%, but I can feel it in my computer performance only a little bit.
When I was using Videora, for instance, I'd feel, it's running.

How is school, man?

All right......I think......... Heh, thanks for asking.
Lets just say I'm glad these are only the mocks. Real exams are in February? March? I don't know. Sometime in the summer.
