Works Great - Can't Play disney UP

[WebHorseDesign]

I'm running into a weird problem. I now have several DVDs that Any DVD powers through and Clone DVD has no problem burning to dvd but they won't play. The memorex dvd disks I'm using are 16x so I'm burning at 12x and getting rid of all subtitles, extra languages, etc.

The two disks that I can use as examples are UP by Pixar a division of Disney and The Holiday.

Here's the AnyDVD data:
Summary for drive E: (AnyDVD 7.1.6.0, BDPHash.bin 13-03-04-A)

CloneDvd records nothing, just looks like a clean burn.

Help!

...then it's not an AnyDVD issue, moving thread.

good luck with that.

It might be a settings issue. He should set AnyDVD to DEFAULTS and try again.
(and burn at 8X)

I think it may be media which is issue over here. Memorex is junk media after all.

@ op, create a copy on hard drive and play that on computer and see if it works.

A different issue: I used to use Memorex blanks and they never failed to play back fine on the computer I burned them on using the same drive. It was with a different computer/drive or a standalone player that the low quality nature showed up.

Memorex used to be a fair quality blank, but QA has definitely gone down hill. A disc might play fine for a time, but a couple months after the burn a backup starts having degradation problems on playback.

Cheap, and Memorex is cheap, ended up costing me a lot of money from having to rerip and reburn. Now I use only Verbatim DatalifePlus and I haven't regretted the cost increase at all.

Well, drats on the media problem. I used to _only_ memorex due to quality problems with other types of media. Looks like my spool is useless.

I will try to burn to my hard drive and see if I can play.

ps. "he" who should try the defaults is a "she" and she did.

Well, the iso I created from the disc plays fine. So, this means that the media I used was junk? If so, what should I be using for dvd burning, any recommendations?

It's likely to be your burner is failing - in which case only IT can read its own (off center) burns (if lucky).
Memorex might be "junk media" but that's usually in terms of "longevity".
