  1. Hi,

    I have a problem and hoping the forum can help me out.

    I have just made a Picture Slide Show on a DVD using MemoriestoTV.
    The media brand I've used is Ridata (one of those blank ones in white so I can print a picture on).

    When I inserted the disc into one of my older Wintel DVD player (about 4-5 years old player). It show "Invalid Entry". (I've got no problem playing when burnt the same data to another brand such as Data Bank.)

    When I insert te same Ridata Disc onto another DVD player, it plays ok with no problem.

    Where is the problem? Is it because my old Wintel DVD Player doesn't like Ridata?

    Regards,
    Anon

    Basically yes, look up your DVD player on the left for DVD compatibility. Some play just -R, some +R, some both, some none. You could try burning at a slower rate that might help.

  3. Thanks. The Disc is a -R and both DVD Players plays -R type Discs. Have tried at a slower burn speed (2x) with same result.

    Never ahd any problems but if you burn at a slower rate it will give you a better imprint on the disc.

    Could be the disc too, just that one the whole batch..... Have you udsed them before?

  5. Yes, I have tried burning at slower rate.
    No... have not used them before.. but Ridata is bascially one of the top brands and I got them because I just purchased a Epson R210 printer so I can print picture on the disc.
