    i use clonedvd2 to copy dvd's too big to fit on a blank, so its compressed. but when i play these copies on my dvd player, half way through it stops playing. but on my mums dvd player it works perfectly fine. so, is this something that only happens with clonedvd2 or whenever you have to compress a dvd(whatever program you use) or is it my dvd writer(+r).

    help please thanx.

    If it works fine on your mums dvd player this tells you two positive things.
    1.You have ripped it correctly as all files seem to be present.
    2.Your dvd writer is working fine.
    Now there is two possible things that could be wrong.
    1.Your dvd player may be in need of a repair or setting adjustment.Try playing something you have not backed up to see if it runs fine.
    2.The media you are using might not suit your dvd player.
    I would tend to think it is something to do with the media you are using.Are you using + or - media.It is a known fact that - media is more compatible with the older dvd players.My dvd player is not keen on Bulpak - media.

    thanx. but the thing is it only haapens with clonedvd2. i use clone dvd (different program) to copy dvds that can fit on a 4.7 blank and it always works fine. if i use clonedvd2 to copy a dvd that can also fit on a 4.7 blank the same thing still happens. do you know why.
