    Hello I have made a copy of movie Doom and when I play it back on my PC by mounting the iso file on a virtual drive on my system and playing it with PowerDVD by Cyberlink the picture is perfect. But when I burn the movie and try to play it on my DVD player it shows a double picture.
    I have tried to burn it twice at two different speeds and both times it has the same effect.I hope someone can help me with this.

    Sounds like an SVCD authored as a DVD or something else out of spec. How exactly did you create the ISO?

    I downloaded the file in RAR format and when I extracted the files into one file. They were in the format of *.img, I re-named the file to *.iso so I could burn it using nero. I don't know if I did something wrong or not but I thought that is what I had to do.

    If there is another program that I can use to burn the movie so that I don't get the double picture when I view it on the TV.

    Thought you said you made the copy?

    Anyway, I think that someone took an SVCD encode and authored as a DVD. DVD specs don't allow SVCD resolutions, so not all players will decode such discs correctly. Some player duplicate parts of the image, split the image, etc.

    How big with the img? If it is just joined SVCD files, then it shouldn't be that large. Could also just check the resolution.

    Sorry for the confusion about making the copy, But I meant that I make a copy of the .IMG file. The total file size was 4.27 gigs.

    Hmmm, guess not SVCD then. Still sounds like the results of non standard resolution though.

    how about,
    svcd encode on dvd.
    could be someone forgot to change back the flag to 480x480.
    it happened to me.
