I'm having a problem with vso x to dvd converter. I'm trying to burn a downloaded movie file from my computer onto a disc and it burns successfully; however the disc never plays on my xbox 360 or any other dvd players? The disc plays perfectly on my computer though. Here is the log report and any help will be greatly appreciated: 27/05/2007 12:24:41 PM info ********** Report session closed *********** 27/05/2007 12:16:28 PM info Media removed.

download the newest version of ConvertXToDVD: http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd/ this is crappy media! use good quality media (rule of thumb....buy the ones that are Made in Japan.) Verbatim is a top notch disk and is the only exception to this rule....some Verbatims are made in Taiwan and they are top notch! there are plenty of reasons why certain dvds won't play in other players: 1. burning speeds: burn at 4x so there will be less writing errors (rule of thumb is to burn at half the rated speed of the disk--8X disk burn at 4x). 2. read manual for your stand alone player and use the disks that will play in your player. If your player is less than 2 yrs old then it should play the + or - R disks! I said SHOULD that's why you read the manual. 3. try booktyping your drive to DVd-ROM so it will make your +R disks more compatible to players. Read this: http://k-probe.com/bitsetting-booktype-faq.php 4. make sure that there are no finger prints or scratches on your disk that make it hard for the player to read the disk! 5. use good quality media (rule of thumb....buy the ones that are Made in Japan.) Verbatim is a top notch disk and is the only exception to this rule....some Verbatims are made in Taiwan and they are top notch! 6. and don't burn too close to the outer edge of the disk ..... which will make the disk unreadable! but using good media you will be able to burn close to the edge better than lesser quality media. Just in case I only burn no closer than 4400MB, so if you can set your programs to that, all the better! follow these little tips of the trade and you'll have better success! good luck. also read this: http://www.cdfreaks.com/reviews/Why-DVDRW-is-superior-to-DVD-RW/ why the +R media is better than the -R media
Hi, In the burn settings, enable [X] Prefer SAO for DVD-R This will make it burn in Session At Once instead of Packet Writing.
