Hiya

Am new to this game and would appreciate a little guidance.

I have put my home videos successfully onto DVDs using my Sony RDR-GX3 DVD Recorder onto DVD-R media (Mirror brand).

These then play successfully on my Panasonic RV-62 DVD Player.

The problem comes when I read the DVD clips and edit them using TMPGEnc Author. Even though I write the resulting files to the same Mirror DVD-R media they will not play on the Panasonic Player. NB They will play using the Sony DVD Recorder.

The only clue I have is that I get an error message when I write the output using TMPNGEnc

"The combined bitrate of the clip exceed the upper limit for a standard DVD"

I am surprised to get this message as I read, edited and wrote the clips using TMPGEnc. I have done no clever conversions (to the best of my knowledge!)

I have found various posts about this error message which all say to ignore it.

Any help and advice would be welcomed as to why the output DVD will not play on the Panasonic DVD Player and why I get the error message

Cheers

Steve
