  1. I used DVD Shrink "full disc" backup mode, and burned with Nero.

    I used a Ritek DVD-R media and an NEC ND-2500A dual mode burner.

    The disks work great in my PC and my console player. But I have problems getting them to play properly on my Mac. The menus and stuff look fine on the Mac, but when I actually begin to play, the video gets jerky, stumbles, and eventually dies with a "your disc may be scratched" error. Yeah, right.

    It's a little frustrating to get all that way only to have the video crap out.

    Can anyone suggest either:
    1) a way to modify my process to make it more palatable to the Mac
    2) a different Mac DVD playing program (other than the Apple one)

    Thanks much! DVD Shrink rocks!

  2. Incidentally, I have already tried the usually great VLC Player, and it had the exact same problem.

    this implies a problem on the end of the PC and its processing.

    seems odd yours wont work but using the same process they work fine on mine

    DVDShrink to HDD then burn with Recordnow Max, works fine for me. iMac DV SE (very picky one at that)

  5. I have had a little bit of luck with other discs since posting this. But that one certain type of tv-episode disc I was having trouble with appears to be a lost cause. I'll consider trying a different burning app, as considerable trouble has been reported with Nero. Too bad, for CDs, it's the bomb.
