I burn my files onto Nero 6, and everything goes fine. I have tried burning them on a DVD-R and DVD+R, and when it says it is succesfully completed, I take the disk out and try playing the disk on 3 different DVD players I have and none of them recognize the disk.

I know there has to be something I am doing wrong in the Nero setup. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am pretty positive that I have done all the Decrypting and Decoding stuff the right way.

Maybe you are burning them as an DVD-ROM rather than DVD-VIDEO?

Maybe you are burning too fast to cheap media, run nero CD/DVD speed on each disc to verity a good burn. A smooth tranfer graph = smooth playback, erratic graph = erratic playback even if all the errors are correctable.

Maybe all three Players don't play DVD-/+R's. Maybe they require you use bitseting to change the booktype.

Find a single layer DVD. Create an iso with DVD Decrypter, then write the iso with DVD Decrypter. Do this with DVD+R and DVD-R. See if either will play in your DVD players.

If not buy a $70 Philips DVP 642 DVD/DivX Player. It reads just about anything.
