Solved! Dvd read problems

[davidO]

Hello,
I am new to DVD burning. I compled a short video, rendered the project, went through the dvd architect procedures, and sent the data to a brand new dvd burner. When inserted into my dvd player, the player keeps trying to "read" the data for several minutes and will not play. it tried this again and got the same result. Any suggestions?

try a different disc
try a different brand name of discs
try the drive in a different computer (or reinstall the operating system)
conclude the drive is bad

if that wasnt good enough, then the format you used is bad.
i thought you said you went through the dvd architect..?
perhaps you forgot to read what your dvd player is capable of reading.

this disc might be perfect and the dvd burner might have worked flawlessly.. but that is zero good if the dvd player wont read the format.

I found a local guru familiar with fomramts. I initially burned DVD+R's. He recommended that I try a burn on a DVD-R because my player is several years old. I burned a -R and it worked perfectly. Thanks for your input.
