Title: DVD Presentation Skips Post by: Elder Garcia on June 29, 2010, 09:07:22 AM Hi,
Just wondering why my friends DVD presentation CD skip back to the beginning constantly on his home portable DVD player and his windows xp? He said that he didn't get a chance to see the beginning of the presentation at all :( The CD is not scratch because it work fine on my laptop. Does he need to reformat using an external DVD drive? or probably providing the system supports booting to usb?

I have found that many DVD players are more sensitive to scratches than others, even if there's a very fine scratch or fingerprint, the laser can be interrupted. Also check that the reverse (label) side of the disc isn't scratched too. However you state that it is not scratched, this becomes a more interesting issue. - Be sure the DVD is a genuine GDI product. - Check if the DVD player is Region Free (Multi-Region). - In Windows XP, make sure that Windows Media Player 9 or later is installed. - You may need to install a 'DVD Decoder Plug-in' on Windows XP for the DVD to play. Apart from that, I feel it may be a bit of a mystery! Good luck! 8) |
