I have recorder a DVD+R on my new Philips DVDR3320V DVD-recorder.

The disc plays OK on the recorder itself, and on my two PCs (one with
a DVD-recorder, on only with DVD-reader) the content of the DVD is
showing OK (I can see the VIDEO_TS folder and the .IFO, .BUP and .VOB
files within).

But when I try to play the disc Media player locks up. Also DVD Shrink
gives a "Failed to read file E:\ Reached end of file." if I try to
open the disc (tried opening the VIDEO_TS on harddisk as well).

I also tried copying the VIDEO_TS folder to my harddisk, but that
doesn't help. Still lockes up if I try playing any files :-(

Anyone know what is the problem? What is wrong with the files?

I'm wondering if I'll just return the DVD-recorder, what is the use of
a DVD-recorder if other players can't play the DVDs it produces, and
not even DVD Shrink can copy them (if the DVD-recorder breaks down all
my films I have recorded will be lost if no one else can read them).

(please strip newsgroup-list according to where replies fit best)
