If your using the sony to burn its probably a (rebadged)liteon burner and liteon's have some trouble with dvd- disc's try the dvd+.If your drive supports it enable bitsetting.Bitsetting( http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=...e+Search&meta= )changes the booktype on the disc from dvd+ to dvd-rom which is read easier by standalone players...good luck
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
tried it and it doesn't work. Needs a laptop and other stuff to get it working. To complicated and time consuming. It's hacked now for region 1-6 so I am happy.

uhm no.
you need your dvd players remote and thats it, who ripped you off?
EDIT:
looks like you need a One For All 6-Way Remote to hack it, sorry.
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
Ok I have officially gone insane with this as I cannot get the sound to sync in with the picture. I tried every guide there is and still the sound is out of sync.
I tried NTSC to PAL conversion
Xvid to DVD-R etc......
What the hell is wrong with this? why can't I get it done? I have no problems with a VCD but a DVD-R is such a pain. Anyone experience this problem or anyone that can help me or will to take time out and help me.
PLEASE................ It's a BIG nightmare.
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
i think your just going over the bitrate limit like you said before. i recently had a similar problem when i was copying The Village, kept getting all blocky and freezing. i just encoded the audio at a lower bitrate and it works fine now ;)
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
ok, now it's starting to make sense. So what should the bitrate for video be and for the audio? I am using TMPGEnc and encoding the audio bitrate at a very high 384kbps because the video is 5000kbps. I thought if the video bitrate is high so should the audio as well.
Or how should it be?
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
just try lowering the audio bitrate, don't mess with the video just yet, to 320 or 256 ;)
i've never really found a reason to use a bitrate that high. a 192-224kbs VBR seems to do the job for me with no loss of quality, that i can tell :)
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
ok doing it now at 192kbs.......
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
i meant a 192(min)-224(max) VBR, some movies won't sound right at a CBR of 192kbs :\
I, Robot for example...i had a hard time getting the super computer's voice, VIKI, to sound right as it was all techno sounding, and was even above 224kbs. so, changing the max to 256kbs fixed it :)
also be sure to do a multipass, to make sure it doesn't go too low or high when it shouldn't ;)
Re: what am i doing wrong when burning a xvid to DVD-R
The reason for its skipping is because for the media plain and simple deferent answer i was smashing brick walls making coasters for a year til i realized you have to find the right media that matches your DVD player. avoid especially cheap media
