Magix Movie Edit Pro 11; burned discs errors

[chilidip]

DVD-R discs I burn in Sony and HP burners will not play in Sony, JVC or Toshiba consumer DVD players. Error messages include 'cannot read disc' 'wrong area code' 'dirty disc' and 'cannot play'. All discs will play in PC and Mac internal DVD players.

I have reinstalled Edit Pro 11, downloaded updates and installed, but no help. Vegas DVD and Nero Express will burn the same AVI files to DVD-R discs that will play in my consumer DVD players, but there are several features in Edit Pro that are much easier to use.

Does anyone have suggested solutions?

Most of those errors usually indicate cheap/faulty media or the disc issues (such as not meeting dvd spec). "wrong area code" is most likely wrong/incorrect region, which would indicate you have region coding on your disc that doesn't match the region of your players.

What exactly are your burning? What is the source? What type of use/output are you attempting to achieve?

I am burning to a Sony DVD-R disc. Simple movie files with a couple of menu pages for the chapters. Magix encodes the file as MPEG-2. I am using a Sony DRU-530A burner which shows a Region Code 1. When I use Vegas or Nero software to burn these same discs they play ok in our 3 consumer players.
