PC twin core 2.66Ghz, Matrox RTX2, Premiere pro CS3, XP sp 3, 4Gb ram Using encore CS3 and created 20 or so projects and burnt DVD's sucessfully. These all played in a Panasonic DVD player OK. Suddenly new DVD's burnt in encore will not play in this player - but all those burnt earlier still play OK. Srangely new DVD's also play OK in PC and also several other DVD players. Tried burning from a folder created in encore using another PC and this also fails to play. Lastly tried copying a "faulty" DVD using Nero and the copy will play !! Is encore at fault is my question. I realise this sounds like a dvd player fault and not relevant to this forum - but it is related to encore. Any ideas or solutions anybody thanks Peter

What changed? Blank media brand? Type of projects? Project settings? All of the above? :)

The problem disks are burned from Encore? Is there anything different between the "new" and "old" disks in the file structure?

Hi Guys The dvd's are all on RitecG05 discs, contain about 1 hour of video, are PAL, have the same project settings as far as I can tell, have 1 timeline and one static menu with static buttons. All simple stuff really. I have also had copies done at a duplication company of the "faulty" disc. The copies played perfectly on the Panasonic. I have just inspected the good and bad discs in Nero disc info tool. The copies are indicated as being closed. The original "faulty " disc is indicated open. I see this was an issue raised on these forums when Encore CS3 came out but the thread was inconclusive. Could this be the problem and is there something that can be done. Look forward to hearing from you all!! Peter

Well, I have never burned a disk from Encore. Build to folder in Encore and use Nero (since you have it) to burn. I use the free ImgBurn and love it. If they respond quickly, before the forums go down for the weekend, someone may tell you there is a checkbox in Encore to finalize your disk. I wonder....

Stanley, I do not believe that there is such a checkbox. I recall many of the threads that Peter is talking of, and also do not recall a concrete solution, or explaination for this difference. IIRC, CS3 changed this proceedure from that of CS2. I've have to go back and read everything all over again, but it *seems* that the consensus was that it should not make any difference. In Peter's case with his Panosonic, it just might be the difference. Though I do most of my burns from Encore2, I also use ImgBurn, when needed. If I have a lot of duplicates to make (short of replication), I do the Burn to Folder, then fire up ImgBurn. Peter, good luck, Hunt

I can also attest to the quality from IMGBurn. I still have to wonder what has changed in the system though. Something must have.

Hi All, I think I will download Imgburn as it gets excellent reviews. Is there a more reliable or proven method using Imgburn to burn either a folder or an image file?? The builder of my system has suggested I burn a project which I know still plays as I have a master dvd of it. Not sure what that will prove but I will give it a try anyway. As Neil points out " something must have " changed that is. Thanks for all the assistance but of course if anybody else wants to offer further sugestions I'm all ears. Peter

Peter, I am curious whether or not you get a different result when burning from an Encore made disc image file with ImgBurn <http://www.imgburn.com/>. My first hunch was that the issue could be caused by inconsistent quality of the RITEKG05 media. If the same project does work with an ImgBurn DVD then that would be ruled out. My second thought was that your project didn't fill up enough of the disc, but that would only happen if it were less than 20 minutes or so and not when it is about an hour as you stated.
