Help with DVDXCOPY?

[marcos77]

Hi, I just tried backing up my first dvd using dvdxcopy and the burn was successful, but it didn't work when I tried playing it in my sony dvd player. The program had prompted me if I wanted to omit the special features in order to fit the dvd on just one disc? I clicked on yes. I used the default burn engine, everything else is set to it's defaults. I don't know why dvdxcopy burned two dvds when I told it to just burn it on one, without the special features? For disc one I used a verbatim dvd+r and this disc wasn't even recognized by my dvd player, it just keep spinning and spinning. On disc two I used a verbatim dvd+rw and it worked on my dvd player, except I kept seeing alot of errors during the movie. For example, I saw little squares appearing out of nowhere during the movie. Error after error. What am I doing wrong? I thought dvdxcopy was the best program to get? Please help?
