Your windows version shouldnt matter. You may wanna try out RecordNow Max to burn your dvds because some burning programs will give you probs.

the only thing i cant get my head round is the fact that 2 people who use XP have burnt and viewed, and i have viewed them............... but not them me........ btw i have the new optorite DD0401 cud that be the prob? i just cant view my own rips on player, only on pc, and only 1 neighbour can view my rips...

Try this as well:

When making your dvd backup make sure there is an AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folder in there. With all your files in the VIDEO_TS folder. Your AUDIO_TS folder will be empty but some home dvd players actually look for the AUDIO_TS folder before playing the disc.


Yours may be that kind of player.
