Hi guys, I burned my first DVD using ConvertxtoDVD and it plays fine on my Dell laptop. When I put it in my standalone Toshiba DVD player, I get a blue screen showing the actual data files - Audio_TS and Video_TS. I can select the files with my remote, but can't play them. It won't show me a menu at all. Any idea of what could be wrong? I am using Memorex which I see, having read the threads, is a low-quality media. I will buy Verbatim online, but since my DVD player is reading the data off the disk, I thought it must be a technical mistake I'm making instead of a media quality issue.
When I look at the dvd on my laptop, I can see all the normal bup, ifo and vob files. On the standalone dvd player, the folders actually appear to be empty - I can select the folders themselves but there is nothing inside. It's as though the dvd player sees the folders but not the files within them? Is that possible? </clueless>
No - on the standalone DVD player the only things visible are the two file folders Audio_TS and Video_TS. On the right side of the screen there are some settings controls - Filter, Mode, Repeat, that sort of thing. It almost looks like a Windows Explorer window. Using the remote I can select each folder, but when I hit enter, there is nothing inside, just a "go up" folder to return to the main window. On my laptop, I can see the same two folders on the DVD, but I can open them and see the DVD files inside, so I know they burned successfully.
