Dam this is hard

Keep Trying Don't Give up 

its hard.....at first 

Ultralight, why not have a look at my step by step guide? Its long and lengthy, but if you follow all the steps, you should have no problems! ;)

I too have been having very limited success after reading reading and rereading all the guides. I followed biscuit's instructions and it plays perfectly on my HD. It also plays perfectly on my PC. However on my standalone I get the director's talking over the movie and can just barely hear the movie in the background. I'm new at this what can I say. Any suggestions?

Smoker, It sounds like you've encoded the director's comment soundtrack, or if you have multiple, maybe that was the highest order? If you 'stripped' the audio, you should have been given a choice of audio tracks to strip. I usually just keep the AC-3 6 channel and toss the rest. From the sounds of it, you may have kept the directors comment track and another, and your standalone is defaulting to the comment track. Can you switch audio tracks on your standalone? There's usually an audio button on your remote to move from track to track. See you can switch it.

Padre! Thanks bro I'm so stupid. I swiched the audio channel and that was all it was. I started watching the first chapter and it came to a spot where it got all distorted blocky and such. I got through that one area and It seems to be okay now. Obviously I'll have to burn another one though. What might cause that? Cheap media? Thanks!

Nearly there 

Smoker, Your'e nearly there. Looks like you stripped the wrong audio track, other than that, it looks pretty good. It might help if you use Ifoedit to analyse your ripped files. This might show which tracks you ripped. HomerJ :)

Smoker, You could have one of two things: It could be defective media (not necessary cheap, as Carlos is discovering with higher priced TDK) or it could be a DVD-R compatibility issue with your player. I'd try a couple of things: 1) Try the DVD in another player, maybe a friends. See if it jumps or pixelates on that player. If it does, it's probably bad media 2) Record to DVD-RW media and try that in your player. 3) Lastly, try to narrow down when the problems occur. If it's at a certain spot (Example: exactly 15 minutes in), then it looks like a media issue. Padre
