Default Bad media, bad files or bad Nero?

If that's an option, you might find better compatibility with
single-layer DVDR than dual. The price-per-gigabyte of dual has never
come down as low as single, so all my chargeable work has been sent
out on SL discs. I've never had a return - ever. (Well, not because of
compatibility problems anyway.) If the average bitrate needs to drop
below 3000kbps in order to fit onto SL disc, I just span the content
across two discs.

I agree... And I just thought of something else... I use DVD Shrink to
avoid the high cost of dual-layer disks. Just point it to your VIDEO_TS
folder, it'll shrink it, make an ".ISO" file, and use Nero to burn a
single-layer 4.7 GB disc. You can get it at
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/vi...dvd_shrink.cfm.

BTW.... If it won't use Nero to burn, just get ImgBurn from
http://www.videohelp.com. (You could get DVD Shrink there too)

Cheerio,

Keith
