G'day,
I purchased MyDVD 10 Premier yesterday and everything downloaded and installed correctly. I then decided to do a trial burn of a TS file created by a Beyonwiz PVR. Everything seemed to go successfully, except that the DVD created cannot be played on the drive that created it. It will play on a DVD drive on another computer and in a DVD player, but it will not play on the drive that created it.
Any ideas as to what might be causing this?
Another observation. It is extremely slow when adding a movie to a project. It seems to take forever to actually get control of the computer back. I am running a 1.4 GHz Centrino with 1 GB RAM and around 20 GB free disk space. Even after doing a defrag, it is still as slow. I previously used MyDVD 6 which worked perfectly, but when I tried to reinstall it (the original installation was on a hard disk that failed) the registration would not go through and I could not get anywhere trying to get it registered. I needed to get something to author DVDs and this was the quickest way to get things working, only it is very slow.

With that system you will never be able to do much video work, its surprising the program even runs

I am not looking at doing serious work with it. For the moment, it is all I can afford.
What I am really interested in knowing is why the burned DVD will play on any other DVD drive or player except the one that it was burned on. I mean, I have an old notebook with 128 MB RAM, an 800 MHz P3, and it will play on that DVD ROM drive but not the one the DVD was burned on.

Is that an external drive that you burned it on? If so, it could be that it just can't pass the data back to the pc fast enough to play it. Especially if it's USB 1.

No, it's an internal DVD-RW drive. Other DVD's play fine on it, just the one I burned that fails to play.
