Looks like it must be. I'll download another one and see how I get on.

Cheers for all your help, much appreciated

Thats cool please let us know how it goes with the new file or if you have any more problems...
Happy Burning

Oh dear I've been busted, I didn't even relise that was there
Its time for me to re-visit the stickies...

Yeah the Lord has be a busy boy the last couple of months reorganizing and adding to Stickies. If you don't pay attention he will sneak something in and you will not know it.

Then you will spend hours researching something for a member and post it and wonder why their isn't a Sticky on the subject. Then you start checking out the Stickies and notice some changes and all of the sudden there it is. The Lord snuck it in on you.

It took me twice to before I learned to check the Stickies on a regular basis. No telling what the Lord Has been up to.

Hey Lord good job on the updates to the Stickies. I for one would like to say thank you. And it is appreciated.

Footbacon strikes again!

I found a different source, downloaded and burned the programme all ok. (yay!)

Only trouble is, everybody on it looks like an Oompa Loompa. Erm.

The colour is completely off, orange faces and really dark. When I open the actual file on the computer, the colour is fine. (Not sure why but I can't seem to play the burned dvd on the computer) I've tried different DVD players and it has the same problem.

If the problem is occuring when the dvd is being burned, is there anything I can do to stop it Oompa Loompafying things?

Hey Footbacon,
Try burning at the slowest speed and also there is a choice of burning in either PAL or NTSC, make sure your dvd players are either one of those compatible...
Also you need to check if your comp uses DVD+R or DVD-R...
Also the brand of disc can make a difference, I personally use either Imation or Verbatim...
I have used TDK before and could not get them to work in any of my players except the PS2...
So theres some possible explanations as to why this is happening...
Hope this helps get rid of the Oompa Loompas lol....

Hi again,

My dvd burner is DVD- and I'm using Phillips DVD-RW discs. It's doing it in PAl which is the righttype for my player too.

I've just tried burning at the slowest speed and I still have Oompa Loompas.

(Maybe it's because I'm trying to record WW & the Choc factory...)

I've burnt the file!

After uninstalling both Santa and Burning-Xpress, I only downloaded Santa again.

I fiddled about with Santa for a while today and still got orange people on the burnt dvd.

So, I downloaded Burning Xpress again and went for the slowest speed burn (first and last time I used Xpress, the sound was out of sync.)

Just stuck the dvd on and it's perfect!
