I have burn my video project to a dvd 2 different times now but they will not play or be reconized in serverl modern dvd players or my playstation 3. My own computer does not even reconize any thing on the dvds afer the the burn session. What do i need to do to change this?
Do you get any kind of specific error message from any of the players when trying to play the disks? Or do they just not find any content on them? Please doublecheck these two points:
1.) Make sure you're really authoring a standard video DVD in the program - as opposed to one of the other offered formats, which not all DVD players might be able to play or do anything with.
2.) Make sure you're using the correct video mode for your location/players. This will usually require PAL for e.g. Europe and Australia, NTSC for North America and Japan. In the final stage of the DVD-authoring, you can bring up the MPEG-2 encoder settings again and check or change this.
If your computer's file browser really doesn't see any content on the disc anymore after an apparently successful burning procedure, this might be a pure data writing and reading issue. Make sure to burn slow and try different DVD blanks. Maybe the disc drive is acting up? You should look into that.
