Hope someone can help on this...bit long winded, so i'll start:

I purchased a NEC1000A DVD burner after much reading in the forums. Said unit was installed & i downloaded a copy of MovieFactory2 Trial Version.
This installed OK & I created 5 dvd's (each with 2 films, menu's, & chapters) and burnt with Nero with not 1 coaster .
These worked fine in my standalone & both PS2's. Writing software's installed were Nero (latest version) & easy cd version 5 (dont know why it was on there!!!). I also backed-up copies of my PS2 games & these worked perfectly using Nero.

About 1 week later I started up MF2 again & went through the process of creating menu's, adding chapters so on, but when it got to the menu to create the directory/image/burn it freezes for no apperant reason, no help from Ulead Tech Support on the problem!. From this i went it alone & tried several reinstall's and even reformatted...it turns out for some reason i need a cd (original or blank) in my Freecom CDR drive and it will then allow the vobs to be created!!! This is not such a problem now but none of the dvd's created play in the PS'2 but work OK in the standalone

Any ideas why this would be???

Have tried various Authoring packages with varing results but none work on the PS2's.

Great site with lots of knowledge...keep it up
