I have a project in Nero that I've been trying to burn onto a Dual
Layer DVD+R disc. So far unfortunately without success (4 new beer
mats!).
I have encoded the project and I am just burning the Video_TS and
Audio_TS using the burning Rom.
So far though upon playback I always seem to have one or two titles
that have errors. It might say unexpected DVD error, unable to read
part of dvd playback might be effected etc and then it stops the video
playing. Have tested on my computers DVD drive as well as regular DVD
player so have ruled out hardware being the problem.

Hmm, it's unlikely that you have a whole batch of bad disks but what
it could be is that the media is incompatible with the burner,
although rare these days it can still occur, I would certainly try
different media.
FU's set.

Can't NVE burn to a VIDEO_TS folder on the hard drive? Then all you need to
do is watch it in Showtime to make sure the files are OK and burn with Nero
Express. If you make a coaster (for whatever reason) you don't have to go
through the encoding process again.

You might find that the video is being encoded at the maximum bitrate, which
is a problem for a lot of DVD players with DVDR media. For DV sourced
material, you won't see a benefit with the video bitrate higher than
6500kbps. If you have the time to wait for two-pass VBR, you can set the
average from 4500 to 6500kbps and it will still be impossible to see any
difference from the source material.

Bad Nero.... Bad Bad Naughty Nero... ;-)
John, I use lots of different tools. One of them is ImgBurn. You can
get it at http://www.videohelp.com. Use "Build" mode, point it to the
VIDEO_TS folder and select "Device" to burn a disc. Works...

I agree... And I just thought of something else... I use DVD Shrink to
avoid the high cost of dual-layer disks. Just point it to your VIDEO_TS
folder, it'll shrink it, make an ".ISO" file, and use...

The OP can use Nero Recode - he can recode direct from the DVD disc to a
directory on the hard drive - in fact if he does that, and the problems
"disappear", the issue is either the bitrate or the compatibility of the DVD
media he's using.

If your project was 5500 kbits (say) then the project would need to be 3h
26m for it to fill a DL disc.
I thought from your OPs it was more of the order of 2h with a couple of
slideshows set to music? Something's not adding up, here...

Hi, it is just over 3 hours in length.
I have three video files. The first video file is just over 3 minutes
in length. This is added to the project twice near the beginning. So
that's about 6 mins 30 secs.
The second video file is 34 minutes long and the third video file is 1
hour 29 minutes long. Then I have opening credits 3 minutes long and
closing credits about 4 minutes long.

I would also add (or should I say repeat), that there could be an
incompatibility between media and burner, I've had this once - my then
burner kept kicking out floaters, used a different make (dye) and all
was well, I have since changed the burner and used the old media
without problem in this new burner - go figure...
