Kmichael Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 I just created my first DVD using EVD3 and popped it into my DVD player. It could not read it. My player is probably at least 10 years. Could this be a compatability problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bimicher Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 I pulled them from a Hi8 camcorder (using Roxio). Here are the properties of the "input" files after they were loaded on my laptop but before they were burned. You only show the properties of one mpg file. Do all of the other mpg files that you are using have exactly the same properties, are you sure they are all NTSC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bimicher Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 so have we reached a dead end? You guys given up? I don't see what any of us here can do more, after all we don't have your setup or your source files and so cannot duplicate your problem. The only thing I can suggest that you don't seem to have tried is to use only one file in your project and burn that to a RW DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim_Hardin Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 There are not any updates so the message is 'normal'...No I don't have any more ideas Edit: Good one CD!!! I checked mine and it also returns the 1033 code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don't have any more ideas But I will see if I can get someone to peek into this issue Pete, cd and Jim (and anybody else): what is your "VHS2DVD 3 Plus" build number (from the Help/About) tab?

Jim_Hardin Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Post #28 - data was pulled from the DVD that was burned in the ROXIOPLASMA folder. It's a DMSD file - which this posting software won't t me upload. Thanks! I'll burn one and see what mine produces ~ probably barking up the wrong tree... One thing you can check for, on the DVD, click on one of the .VOB files and see what the resolution is - looking for 720 X 480. (PAL is 720 X 526) Also please confirm that the OS was never installed in another language, maybe before you got it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_Hardin Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Thanks! Also, I know everything you have said indicates you have have EVD3, but please confirm that the disc was not written by a different version or program??? (I ask because all prior versions allowed you to set PAL or NTST) The Details are in Windows Explorer or if you don't have them turned on, right click the VOB and look at the Details tab of the Properties: Let us know what that says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete0502 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I went and re-installed the software based on your steps. Can you verify the preferences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bimicher Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I still contend that it is NOT Possible to make a PAL DVD Movie with EVD3 if you have a install on a non-PAL Country PC I can't get it to do that, and I saw a note from Walt that he realized he did not have EVD3 but rather did his test on the earlier V2D (201B) where there is a choice BUT Pete is likely more interested in a FIX than persuring the nuances of the software So let's offer this: Unplug your Capture USB Device and put it aside until you are completely finished. Download and install the Revo Uninstaller. Then run it in Moderate Mode to remove any traces of Roxio EVD3. Then turn off your Anti Virus, Firewalls, Registry Cleaners, etc. Now insert your Roxio Disc. Be sure you accept the offer to Check for Updates (this is for Roxio, not Windows) When the Install competes, turn your AV & Firewall back on and reboot. That should make sure everything is intact with the EVD3 Software and will not effect the files you have captured. It would be a good idea if you have a disc or 2 of DVD RW media on hand to test with! (RW is erasable so it can be used again, just Don't use it for permanent projects) Let us know how that works out for you What note are you referring to? I do have "VHS2DVD 3", I do not have the "VHS2DVD 3 Plus". I did my test using the "VHS2DVD 3", there is no option to select NTSC or PAL. It automatically set the format depending on the format of the source video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete0502 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 The software is called MediaInfo and recommended by one of the Guru's earlier in this topic. It's the only thing that I have on my computer that shows this level of detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete0502 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 How do I find out what the resolution of a VOB file is? I installed the OS after the hard drive was replaced - I'm sure it was always US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete0502 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Thanks for all your effort. I decided to "burn" the videos to my COMPUTER then just copy those files to a DVD. So, they're created in NTSC on the COMPUTER, and stay that way when I copy and burn the DVD. They play fine on several DVD players I've tried. Not perfect, but at least I can capture and store some great family memories that have been "trapped" on my camcorder until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete0502 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I find nothing like this - no similar folder - no similar file names. I searched my entire C drive and found nothing. Do you have to turn on some kind of logging to get these files when you do the install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdanteek Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Don't worry about updates there aren't any! Pete follow the path in the pic to your Easy VHS to DVD 3 Plus install files, zip them to a Compressed (zipped) Folder (.zip) and attach them or grab a screen shot like I show.

Jim_Hardin Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Pete502: Yes those settings look to be OK... 16:9 & 4:3 ratio options ONLY apply to your Menu page on a DVD Movie. Generally best if they match the ratio of your clips But for now we really want to know if you can burn an NTSC DVD Movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete0502 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Just re-installed the software and the output is still PAL!! Runs fine on my laptop in MS MediaPlayer, but not in my DVD player. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete0502 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 yes - they all have identical properties - all are NTSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_Hardin Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 so have we reached a dead end? You guys given up? Pretty much... It is a curious situation but you are the only person in the world to have this problem AND the program was introduced in January 2009 If it were a program issue it would have come up before in the 4 years that followed... You either find a work around or format you HDD and start new... Sorry but that is about all that is left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaraL Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I am having the same problem. I can burn the dvd fine with Roxio after I capture the videos, but the videos are saved as MPG files on my computer and they need to be *bup, vob or ifo. Any way to change that? Do I need to buy a program that will convert the video files? I also have Nero 7 but that doesn't work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdanteek Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 yes - they all have identical properties - all are NTSC What software are you using for this screen, be specific? Is this software your only metric identifying a file as NTSC or Pal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
Kmichael
I just created my first DVD using EVD3 and popped it into my DVD player.
It could not read it. My player is probably at least 10 years. Could this be
a compatability problem?
