  1. I usually have no problems with ritek's dvd-r's, like most of the people here with g03 and g04. I have a couple of home movies that I authored with dvd Maestro and played fine on apex, ps2, and power dvd. A friend of mine tried playing these on his old set-top pioneer (dvl-v888, karaoke that plays laser disc, dvd, vcd, cd, etc), and the dvd just locks-up at the beginning of the movie and refuses to play. Weird, since this same player plays g03 and g04 discs fine of backed-up dvd movies.

    Could it be just a media problem, or there's something with my authoring technique??

  2. there's something with my authoring technique
    that would be my guess. but it's easy to find out one way or another (i.e., give him/her a movie-backup or something to try instead). Not all players are created equal, fault-tolerance-wise.[/quote]

  3. movie back-up's created by dvd2one or dvdshrink on ritek's plays just fine. Which is supposed to be more compatible with dvd-r's, NEWER or OLDER set-top dvd players?

    Most should work fine, but the highest compatibility would be on newer ones. My friends first gen plays my DVD-R backups, strangely he cannot even play a burned audio cd on it.
