Disc Dirty??

[Nicknov18]

Hi,
While playing a movie, I encountered the 13: cc Disc is Dirty problem on my Sony DVD player. The disc started up like it was going to play letting me go into the sound option, but when I pressed the DVD Menu button on my control, it said the disc was dirty. I have the Sony DRU500-A writer, and I tried writing on the Sony Disc provided, as well as a TDK DVD-RW, and both DVD's said the same thing. I used the DVD Decrypter and Instant copy 7.00. The movie I am using is the Signs DVD. So I cleared the blank, and I tried a different movie on those same disc and it plays perfectly fine. I didnt want to waste a blank dvd writing the Signs movie on a regular blank. I ripped just the main movie and most of the other things, but not the deleted scenes or the little Believe in Signs thingy.
Please help with what i should be doing instead.
Thanks

I've had the same problem when trying to watch a trailer on a Windtalkers backup i had made. Only happens when trying to watch the trailer. I have a Sony standalone that this happens in... haven't tried my apex yet. Oh and the disc is NOT dirty

Nicknov-

I also have a Sony DVD player and I would get that message. But for me, I found out the hard way that if you use the reg hack for IC to remove any titles(extras, trailers, etc), only then I would get the "dirty" message. I can play the copy on my pc fine but I guess some dvd players are real picky about it. You can remove audio and subtitles...works fine. I read somewhere that removing one or more titles will mess up the .ifo file. You can fix this by using Ifoedit but since I don't have the time to learn it, I've been following the recommended method posted by someone (I think MisterX).

Anyway, I've done two movies and gotten to use full capacity of my media(used - TDK and Verbatim). I would basically set my menu to 100% (no transcode needed). Then set the other stuff to about 40% and then increase the main video size to about 60-70% or higer til you reach 4.7GB(oversize). Hit F5 and start.

Results for the two movies so far:
Ring - 4.37GB
Devils Adovate - 4.32GB
