Non Playback of back up DVD+r's on DW U50A 1.5g

[dcabbott]

Help, i've been backing up my DVD's using DVD Shrink and AnyDVD on my Sony PCG GRT 815e . Once burnt they play on everybody else's dvd players but not on my laptop which created them.
Any idea's!!

As no doubt Nick was trying to point out   there are copyright issues here - even if the original DVD's are bought over the counter :smileyblush:

lol well yeh, im sorry who sits and backs up dvds they already own..

Actually it's probably a good idea if you have clumsy family members....

too right , two young boys aged 2 and 4, with very sticky fingers!

Hehe

I have recently installed SP2 and the most recent updates for Dvdshrink and Anydvd.

Could SP2 be responsible ?
Could you see the files on the DVD+R ? I mean : when you open the device with Explorer, do you see the content of the DVD ?

Hi "dcabbott", my laptop had the same problem with yours. I own a GRT815M, and I recognized that DVD drive of Sony is very sensitive. It cannot read many kind of disk (DVD and CD), my old laptop (FX702) also can not read some CD+R, that it had just burned. So in my opinion, you should buy another DVD brand:smileysad: . Iam using BenQ DVD+R, it works just fine, you should try it. Have a good time:smileywink: .
