Burned DVD on disc will not play on DVD player

GEK

I burned a DVD disc but it will not play on an ordinary DVD player. It was burned as a DVD Movie and the player is Blue ray compatible.

The process has worked well here. What version of Videopad is being used? Suggest burning a DVD-RW disk (rewritable) first, so there's no waste.

Share your project and someone will give it a test. This is easy, quick and can be private. Just follow these steps carefully...

Back up --- With your project on the timeline, click on MENU at the top-left. Click FILE|BACK UP PROJECT FILES TO FOLDER. Choose a folder and SELECT FOLDER.
Upload --- Use a free server - Google Drive, MS OneDrive, etc.* - to upload the saved, numbered FOLDER. Do NOT upload the individual VPJ or export file.
Get link --- Get a public link. If using Google Drive click GET SHAREABLE LINK. If necessary change "restricted" to "anyone with the link can view"
Share --- Click COPY LINK | DONE. Paste that link here, or click the folder at the top-right of this forum to message it privately to me. It won't be shared.

* Before uploading, right-click the folder, click PROPERTIES. Look at the File Size to confirm that it's not too big for the free space on the server.

Hi,

I uploaded what is on the disc to google. This will play on a computer but not on a DVD player. Thanks, Gary

Burned your ISO DVD image, made with Videopad, to a DVD-RW and it played just fine on the Samsung BR/DVD machine.

What version of VP is being used? Suggest updating to 8.97.

For licensed users upgrades are free for up to six months from purchase date. After that, VP will continue to fully function but a fee will be required in order to register the newest. Retain your old install file and registration info.

Hi,

My deck is a Samsun DVD Blue ray too but the disc wont load. Just makes a lot of noise and then it rejects. I have version 9.07 (what it says in the help button top right. Maybe my disc is not very good? Thanks, Gary

Could be the media? Try a DVD-RW if possible.

9.07 is beta - already superseded. Suggest using the release currently on the server.
