    Hi
    Please could someone help i am using Pentium 3, 1 ghz with a GA-6VM7A+ motherboard 384mb ram ,NVIDIA GeForce 2Mx400 with 64mb ram, Western digital 80gb and 20gb drives, LG GDR-8162 DVD-ROM Drive, MSI DR4-A (MS-8404A). I have used various software to backup my dvd's, DVD region free, dvd decrypter, dvd shrink, nero 5, recordnow max, dvd x copy . Also media used Memorex DVD+R, DVD-R, Starmedia DVD-R.
    All the media seem to have been recorded some will play straight off at first then not work at all, others work fine then suddenly start to lock up. Then the majority seem fine then after a number of uses you find you have to play around with the player remote to get the dvd to play its as if it cannot find the start. I have tried these on other friends dvd players to see if there was a problem with my player but it appears to be the same.
    I would be grateful if anyone had any ideas, its as if the recording is downgrading in some way, and at this rate its going to cost a fortune in media to keep a working back up.

    Way too many variables to try to make a guess. You must have made some that work.
