Hi there,
I recently had an issue with my PC where I was getting BSOD's and lots of headaches! Thanks to Route 44, we managed to work out what the problem was, but not before I had done various things to the PC in an attempt to get it to work. The original thread is here https://www.techspot.com/vb/showthread.php?p=724526#post724526 (I hope I'm allowed to post links - please delete and accept my apologies if not).
The PC is now working fine, however, now whenever I burn a video file, whether it be a data .avi file or a wmv, the file on the disc plays with perfect audio, but a very pixilated image, which turns what's on the screen into a negative, or in some cases, just freezes.
I'm using the same burning software as before (Nero 6,6,1,15) with the same DVD burners (1 x HP DVD Writer 940d 3H23 and 1 x Sony DVD-Rw AW-G170a 1.71), the same operating system (Windows XP) and the same DVD's and CD-Rs (sony), but the issue is still occurring. I did not have this issue before and had been burning avi files happily for many moons!
I've tried updating the nero drivers, but had the most up to date version anyway (for my serial number). I've tried different discs, burning at slower speeds, making original avi files, but nothing seems to be making a difference. I've even had the side off the machine and made sure all the plugs are connecting a to b correctly.
Has anyone had a similar problem? The files on my computer play perfectly, it's only when I burn them to a disc and try to play them on either the PC or on my divx player that they go wrong. I have tried to attach a clip of the original file and then a clip from the burnt dvd as zip files to give you an example of the quality difference but the files are too large to upload.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance for your help
Hi again,
we've tried to do some detective work ourselves and changed the cable to the cd burners... it didn't work
We tried burning onto a different burner, but still, playback is pixilated and unviewable
We tried uninstalling and reinstalling Nero... it didn't work
We tried uninstalling nero and installing CDburnerXP... it didn't work.
I'm all out of things to try now. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Happy to run checks etc and post them if anyone is willing to take a look for us
Please help!
Many thanks
