I'm gonna try to put it in vob DVD compliant with super and then put it in Nero..

I've been trying to get all this straight for a week and I had NO idea how hard this would be at first, lol.

Thank you!

Let me know how you get on... have fun;)

So far I haven't been able to do anything with Super. I'm getting error messages that indicate any number of things going wrong and I've addressed as many as possible.

I just don't know why the one DVD I made on Nero worked and the other 2 didn't. That's why I'm confused.. I did all three the same way.

Well at least you gave it a go... maybe someone who knows a bit more about using SUPER could help you out with that. I did intend on trying SUPER myself when i was having problems, but after reading through the info I decided it was a bit complicated (despite it saying it was easy!) and also i don't have much free space on my hard drive.
Maybe member "wondering why" could help you as they advised me about using SUPER.
As for playback... I found that on my old DVD player it was very hit and miss... one minute it would play a disc, next time it wouldn't... sometimes it would jump all over the place, sometimes it wouldn't even play dvd's that it had played before!
If its not your DVD player then maybe its something to do with the quality (bitrate) of your file originally, or what quality (bitrate) its been burned at.
I had the most trouble with films that needed to be compressed to fit on a disc as the quality (bitrate) was much lower. All my compressed DVD's played terribly on my old dvd player, yet the non compressed ones were fine.
It may be that your DVD player likes the higher bitrate discs???
Also, without getting too bogged down in other possibilities... it may be worth considering that it may be your actual DVD writer thats causing the problem.The one I got in my PC originally was OK for a while then it started burning me bad DVD's- firmware updates didn't work, so I got another and that was fine. That's just another possibility... but don't worry about that if it burns OK on Nero's Copy DVD function.
For me, the problem was my DVD player... for you I can't be sure. If someone who uses SUPER can help you to use it, and they play ok... great. If they still don't playback, consider your DVD writer or DVD player next.
Sorry I couldn't help you more... i'm not as up on this stuff as some of the others!

SOMEONE ADVISE MICHVOLLEY ON USING SUPER...:super:

You know what, the two that didn't play did have to be compressed to fit on the disc. So I will pursue that as the possible problem.

Thank you! You have been a huge help!!! :dance:

When I tried SUPER I got errors as well. After a bit of troubleshooting I found out that there was no folder specified to save to. Could be your problem as well. Right-click on the screen in SUPER to bring up the options.

Also could be due to incompatibility like PAL vs. NTSC. There is a difference in framerate there which causes some players to have read errors.

michvolley November 14th, 2006 04:47 PM

So I'm making sure they're NTSC and I'm using Nero 7 to do everything. Rather than compressing the files to fit the disc, I'm splitting the longer movies into 2 discs and it's working great now!!

Thanks you guys rock!!! :yahoo:

Peerless November 14th, 2006 04:48 PM

you can also change from PAL to NTSC with nero7...I do it all the time, and have had no problems

chris12 November 14th, 2006 06:02 PM

try using WINAVI. i use it all the time to convert AVI files to DVD and i can then burn them on a DVD disk using Nero

michvolley November 15th, 2006 01:29 PM

More help please!! with Nero 7

I've burned a few DVD's now no problem.

All of a sudden I'm having a problem with one movie.

I'm doing this:

Make your own DVD-video
Add Video Files (it's an .avi)
Then I hit next until I get to the screen with the burn button, and when I hit it I get this message:

Unable to prepare data for recording:Prepare session failed:Transcoding of video failed.

I never got it before and I'm doing the same thing. WTF????
