562484 2007-06-24 21:41:00 I have a very annoying problem!! I have an LG DVD burner that i use regulary to burn video files (avi Divx mostly) and it used to work all the time (for over 3 years), now if i try to watch video from a burnt DVD the video stutters all the time, freezes and generally doesnt work, the source material is OK. The DVD burns other stuff (jpegs, documents) fine.
I have tried many things and still the problem persists. I have replaced the drive with a new LG H22N, i have replaced the IDE cable to the DVD. I have swapped the IDE channels over, the DVD is the only device on that particular channel, i have changed the jumpers around. I have 768Mb RAM on Windows XP with an AMD 2400+, i thought maybe it was running out of RAM so i created another profile that had nothing running but and used that profile to burn. I have updated the bios, used different types of discs (i used DSE -R and +R) -Rs used to work fine in the past. Im all out of ideas??

My machine is completley free of viruses and spyware

562485 2007-06-24 21:47:00 And you're burning with what program? Speedy Gonzales (78)
562486 2007-06-24 22:00:00 Nero 6 borax (7078)
562487 2007-06-24 22:05:00 Could be the speed you burned it at??

I cant remember what was in Nero 6, I'm using Nero 7 .

You dont want to use what u burned on a standalone DVD player do you?

You're playing it on the PC right?

As I dont think Nero 6 supports Divx to DVD (Nerovision does) . Did u burn whatever as a data disk??

562488 2007-06-24 22:16:00 I have tried the lowest speed setting (2x) and no change.

Yes i do use the disks on a standalone player but the problem presents itself when played on my PC too. Nero 6 does burn DIVX files, i just burn them as a data disk.

The thing is, it always used to work doing it this way:confused:

Good on you!!!! INCD is the most evil bloated piece of crap (short of the full install of Nero 7) that nero has ever made. eviiiiilll. :badpc: :lol:

562492 2007-06-24 23:39:00 Is the avi, divx only the new ones that are like that or are all the good ones doing the same? I had some avi or divx files that played fine on computer but as soon as I burn them to dvd they stutter. don't know why but if I re encoded the video with no sound and burn it to dvd then it would play just fine. kennie (10559)
562493 2007-06-25 11:14:00 OK, so i have uninstalled and installed Nero 7, that didn't work, help borax (7078)
