I have a sony VGN-FS115B
When i burn a downloaded movie(mpg form) that is saved to my hard disk using the 'sonic record now' software onto a dvd+r or dvd+rw disc is burns successfully and will play back on my laptop, but will not play back on my 2 dvd players(1 old toshiba,1new sony RDR-GX210 recorder) is this because of poor software or something else?

Would Nero cure this problem, Has anybody had this problem,any advise greatly received,cheers.

Sorry we can't advise you on piracy on an official forum, we'd get lynched!

Nero is around £30

Ofcourse not all downloaded movies are illegal. So I'll help you out. The reason you can play them on your normal dvd(s) is because of Codec problem. Your dvd player doesn't support the divx codec (or any other in wich movie is compiled).

Only solution to this is buying a new dvd player wich does support these features. I burn almost everything with record now. Otherwise Nero is a good choice, but indicates that it doesn't work with XP Home edition.

So burning dvd's using Nero will let you play them on home dvd players ?
p.s. they are legal downloads!:smileyhappy:
