Hi there

I recently purchased a DVD writer. Before I used to convert my AVI movies to SVCD using DVD2SVCD and CCE. Now, I'm using DVD2SVCD and converting to DVD using the option in the latest version, still using CCE to encode. I then use TMPGEnc DVD Author, point to the encoded video as video source, the extracted and re-encoded mp2 files as audio source, have 2 movies each on a different track on the DVD, create the menus and the dvd image in TMPG and then burn the resulting image in Nero.

Now, this worked perfectly for my first DVD. However, I have created 2 more since then, and have run into a problem I can't figure out. I can play the first movie (track) perfectly in my standalone DVD player and see the chapter menu for it. However, when I select the last 1/2 chapters of the first track, or try to select the menu for the second track, my DVD player refuses to play it at all. It simply sits there, seemingly paused forever.

When I stick the same DVD into my DVD burner drive and play it using PowerDVD, everything is 100% perfect. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening, and what I could do to fix it? Should I try a different DVD authoring program? I followed the exact same steps to create all 3 DVD's.. so I'm really stumped as to why this is happening.
