    Am using DVD Shrink to rip and Nero 6 to burn to DVD in a Sony DRU510A on +R media. Back-up copies work fine in myu Apex and RCA DVD players and in the Sony burner in the computer. Also have a NEC DV-5800A in the computer that fails to detect any of my back-up copies either through Power DVD or Windows Explorer. Any solution or advice concerning this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks---Wayne

    what are the specs on you nec dv-5800. Maybe it can't read dvd+r. not all dvd drives on computers will read dvd+r. I suspect that this is the problem if they play fine on standalones.

    OK-Tried -R media last night. The first two burns were unsuccessful and only about 25% and 50% of the each dvd got burned. Both drives in the computer detected and played the partially burned dvd's quite well. The 3rd burn was successful and neither one of the drives would play the disk. I got an error message in both drives that the disk may have been damaged and might be unable to play. So, this has led me to believe that in closing the disk, Nero is making the dvd un-playable for some reason. Are there some settings in Nero that need to be changed??? Again, any solution to this problem will be greatly appreciated.........Thanks--WayneC
