Extract the MPG file from the BIN file using ISOBuster. See if the file plays correctly using mediaplayer of your preferred video player from your HDD.

If so, use AVICodec (works on MPG's too) to determine the file properties -- i.e. Size (WxH), bitrate, Codec, etc. Post up that info., and maybe we can help.

And also you may weant to try to burn at a lower than rated speed, just in case it is the media.

ok i just mounted the cue file in deamon tools and tested the mpeg file wit avicodec and this is wat it says:

743 MB (743 MB), duration: 0:00:00, type: DSH, 1 audio stream(s), quality: 66 %

Video : 680 MB, 0 Kbps, 0.0 fps, 0*0 (), = Nero Mpeg Video, Supported

Audio : 62 MB, 192 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 2 channels, 0x50 = Mpeg-1 audio Layer 1, Supported


do i have to use ISbuster to rip it first than use avicodec? i am assumin so so u can see the FPS? thanks guys for the help...i have went through HUNDREADS of disks and still cant these play, i even got a DVD player (standalon) that i kno will play S(VCD)s...thanks!

p.s.- everything i burn my computer stil lcant play, (skips and shit) and i got a top-of-line PC

[Ripper2860]

Yes, extract the file to your HDD 1st. Also -- after you've extracted the file, see if it will play from your PC HDD properly. Post whether it does or not.

Then use AVICodec on the extracted file on your HDD and post up the file info.

Check for a firmware update. If there is a new one, they may have defined a writing strategy for your media.

Also -- if the TDK is setup as SLAVE and/or PIO as opposed to MASTER and DMA/UDMA, that may present a problem, as well. The burn drive should ideally be MASTER and at least DMA.
