Have you tried encoding @ 352 x 240 res?

Don't use multisession. Finalize your dvd.

TY but i tried that method and it only reduced the quality. there has to be another reason why it will not play. i dont know if its the codec or what? any others suggestions. TY

What DVD player do you have ?

What media you burning to ?

Does your player support the media you're using ?



More info required.

qpel, gmc, etc. shouldn't have any effect on the disc not being recognised, only on the file not playing when you select it from the file browser.

Hi. sry i didnt include it. its an apex, it does support avi because i have another dvd wirh avi that i burned as data and it workx fne in it. for im burning to a 8x dvd+r fujifilm

Don't get fooled. The avi may have been converted by the program you used to burn it.

It must be a very new model. Does it say divx certified. I have had 3 older Apex and none played avi. Some models do play mpg files directly without authoring. If you used Nero to burn it may have converted the avi to mpeg without you noticing.

Please provide the exact model number of the Apex to see if it really plays avi.
