rm,
Gene has an extremely likely explanation. If you are not burning dual layer
disks, however, then use the VIDEO_TS folder on your hard disk from one of
these "rain fade" examples, and try playing it directly with your PC, thus
avoiding the step of burning a disk. If the resulting movie looks fine in
the 2nd half, then the burner / blank disks / or your set-top player are
suspect. Given that you have tried different brands of top-notch media from
Verbatim, Sony, and Taiyo Uden, the fault is then most likely in either your
burner or your player, and you can next trying playing the "faulty" disks on
other set-top players as well as on your PC to see if they also look like
"rain fade". By using this logical process of elimination, you should be
able to isolate the problem to one of these causes.
