Could my standalone be junk?

[spankey]

I currently rip DVD's using DVD2SVCD. I also use either TMPGENC OR CCE. Both programs work well. My question is this? Really a dilema./

When I finally get the MPEGs ready to be ripped, I check them out on the pc. When I play them, they look great, when I TV out the MPEG to the TV they look great.. NO shadowing/ghosting nor movement noise...Pixelating...

When I rip them with NERO, and play them in my Phillips Magnavox 751 I see pixelation and some ghosting. Then when I place them in my Pioneer dvd player in my PC and TV it out the pixelation and ghosting is gone?

Could this be a birate issue for the standalone? I mean it plays dvd's just fine... How can I figure out how to fix this issue with the rips? Should I try to lower the Birate or raise it? I ripped another movie and it was fine...THe entire movie turned out great. Same settings...

Can anyone offer any assistance or an answer???

Thanks

What you really need is a friend with a standalone to see how it plays there. You can't compare what plays on PC (file or DVD Rom) to what plays on a standalone.
