    I have been burning DVD-R using ConvertXtoDVD and ImgBurn. Two problems I encountered. 1)The video quality is poor. I burn at 4X using verbatim disc and have set to high quality slow encoding. Is it maybe the source that is poor. If so other than previewing is there any way of identifing source quality before burning? 2)I have tried to burn multiple folders on one disc. They will not play on the stand alone players. I have calculated the disc capacity and it appears OK. Any help would be appreciated.

    There is really no way of determining the quality of the input file. However, you can use the following tools to validate the file for errors, completeness and codecs used.

    Do you have the most current verion of CX2DVD? I suppose you test the output file before you burn them, yes?

    ok...

    so you are burning multiple folders of mpegs to dvdr, try useing multiple mpegs to dvdr, no folders.

    did you want a menu? set that in options...

    is the bad video a one off, all the rest you do are good?
