Burning Video Dvds In The Uk For The Usa

[Britsmith]

I'm in the UK, using Toast 6 Titanium on a G5 to burn video DVDs for viewing on American DVD players. However, they are not recognised by those players (the people have tried various machines), so are returned to me.

 

I convert the video files from PAL to NTSC format using recognised conversion software, so Toast happily burns them to NTSC DVDs, so what else should I check when producing these disks? Am I doing something wrong?

In the Advanced tab:

 

DVD-Video

 

NTSC

Video Quality: High

Auto-Play Items ON

Add Original Photos OFF

Add Data Content ON

Create DVD Menu OFF

 

I also always use the Verify Data and Buffer Underrun Prevention options.

Audio Write Mode is DAO.

 

Maybe I should add that my own DVD recorder/player can show the DVDs on my TV, but only after changing the format from PAL to Auto Detect (or something to that effect), so obviously they have 'burned' OK.

This shouldn't be a problem. What settings are you using in Toast?
