I recently bought DVDXtreme. I used DVDXcopy express to make my first copy of a DVD I had. I was able to re-enable the ripping feature with the help found here on the boards. The copy plays fine on my computer's DVD player. However, when I play it in my home DVD player, it gets very pixelated in spots and pauses a lot. I used a DVD+R media, which I understand COULD be the issue. Are there any others issues I should look at? Thanks. Glenn
Posted a similar entry today. 8/9/2004 I've had a couple of similar experiences. When I get a copy that sticks or tiles like what you say I: 1. Play the extracted files used to make the disc at point of problem to see if the problem exists pre-burning. (This led me to see that one of my originals needed to be fixed) 2. I burn at a slower speed. So far, I've only used fuji dvd+r. The copy I burn after the sticking copy has been OK Since my computer plays the discs OK I think that I might need to get a better player. (That's what somebody suggested to me)
Well, I tried the copy in my other DVD player last night (newer and better model) and it ran flawlessly. Considering that I made the copy with an Imation(not the best brand) DVD+R and can still get it to run bodes well I think I also played around with DVDshrink a little last night. Boy, do I like the ability to re-author a DVD.

The DVD player that works is a GoVideo DVD/VCR combo that plays CD, DVD, MP3 formats. I can't remember the model, but I'll check when I get home. I got it about 9 months ago for about $199. I'm sure GoVideo rebrands it, but I'm not sure who the real maker is. It'd be nice to find out. I've been really happy with it, though.
