LiteOn LVD 2001

[el4x4]

I have just received a LVD 2001, and it works really well with the 5 divx and Xvid files I have burnt on a DVD-R.
What a pleasure not to have to uncompress and author to make it dvd compliant and watch in on my TV.

Still, I experience an unexpected issue: some DVDs will not play properly:
Each chapter is read for <1sec, then skips to the next one, until the final one.

It happens regardless of the standard (PAL / NTSC) and some films will play ok on a DVD-r media, when some will not (burnt on the same media).
I have unzoned and made the player macrovision free, with no change.

Anybody has a solution?
Thx

Hi,

I have this drive too but have not noticed any trouble with DVDs. Are you referring to pressed (mastered) DVDs or "ripped" DVDs using Shrink or even authored DVDs using your own content?

I have used all three of these and have not experienced the issues that you seem to be having.

regards,
Bruce.

Hi Bruce.

I am talking of backed-up DVDs using Shrink or Decrypter and burnt on yellow datawrite x1 DVD-r.
Some work fine, some don't, when they all used to play ok on my Smartmedia DVD player and on my PC.

Thx

it may be worth everyone dating their DVdr (and Cdr) with the date they were burnt just to see if any start to fail and how old they are.. if it just sjips on chapters it could be some authoring/player incompatibility.. try turning PBC off in yo player see if that helps.

Pbc was already off...
