Hi all, I'm new to burning backups of DVD's. I've been trying for 2 days to back up my new movie I just bought. I used DVD Shrink 3.1, DVD Decrypter and Nero. It burns alright but when I try to play it, the movie will show about 2 seconds and then freeze and start again and continue freezing ever 2 or 3 seconds, the whole movie through. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Also, I'm using WinXP if it matters
Use shrink and decrypter or shrink and nero. You don't need all 3 together. Would help to have more info and what you're doing exactly. Also what kind of media are u using. this forum pretty much agrees on Ritek G04's and Verbatim _X_X_X_X_X_[small] [bold]GO VOLS![/bold]........Dell Media4600, XP home,Pentium 4 @2.80GHz/800Mz, 512MB, 280 HD w/8MB, 17" flat panel, AIO-A920, 8x DVD-ROM, integrated 5.1 audio, HP dc4000, Plextor PX-708UF[/small]
If you arent already,try using the best quality discs you can afford,ive had a lot of backups break up etc between halfway and the end using media like bulk paq orange,I now use Ritek with go4 dye,works every time.
Might want to check player compatibility as well: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers And as bigorange and shady76 already stated, quality media helps greatly.
Hey shady, u can get ritekG04's at Meritline for .69 ea. That's cheaper than the cheap discs. These are branded also. Hope this helps you too Angel. _X_X_X_X_X_[small] [bold]GO VOLS![/bold]........Dell Media4600, XP home,Pentium 4 @2.80GHz/800Mz, 512MB, 280 HD w/8MB, 17" flat panel, AIO-A920, 8x DVD-ROM, integrated 5.1 audio, HP dc4000, Plextor PX-708UF[/small]

Well, I'm using Maxell DVD-RW's for the burning and my burner is a Pacific Digital 8x. I've tried burning it a few times and it comes out the same way. It plays the previews alright but not the movie
Angel, it's up to you, i use to have problems til i switched to this media. Not one since. Trust me, what's good in audio don't necessarily hold true for video. I've used Sony,TDK,MAXELL, and Memorex. None of 'em hold a candle to Ritek and Verbatim, which this forum turned me onto. These guys know what they're talking about.

Thanks for the info. I went out and bought a pack of Verbatim's this morning and I just made my 1st backup Thanks again Angel
