Flick is okay, but it seems to work very inconsistently - at least on my dvd players. Or maybe its the discs I'm using, who the hell can tell?! :roll: :T


I haven't had any problems yet with DVD Flick

What problems have you had?

Freezing up and refusing to play the last sections of the dvd. Only thing is, I'm not sure if it's Flick or the dvd player. And the Flick'd ones for some reason tend to only play on that one (the other 2 I've got won't play them at all). It's very... frustrating. :roll:

Especially when I do love my mix dvds (got 14 of them now!) :lol:

So you've used it to sort of edit together several short avi files to one dvd? You haven't separated them on the menu?

Maybe it can't handle too many files at a time?

I have only used it to convert whole movies or TV episodes in avi to one regular dvd, then there have been no problems at all

No, no, they're all separate files with individual listings on the menu.

Oddly enough, the one I most recently burned plays fine on one of my players that refuses to play the others. This is a different batch of DVDRs, from Mag Media, while the others were Phillips. I may have to burn another to see whether this is going to be consistent or just a fluke.

Bloody business college wanting me to ring them because I haven't submitted any assignments since April.

Er, I've been working for the last 4 months and told you dumb ***** then that I wanted to cancel my enrolment.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, these people are dumb. :T :shock:

My Poison Ivy dvd still not turning up, over a fortnight since it was (should have been, anyway)posed. Was planning to watch that tonight.

Balls. :T :roll:

I'm going to have to re-do one of my mix dvds. Not because it won't play or anything, it's just rubbish. :lol: I mean, there's some good stuff on there, but not enough, and I went through it last night in 90 minutes (they usually last up to 2 hours 15 or something). It's by far the weakest one.

Fortunately, because I had to Flick them since I can no longer play mpegs, and because Flick only allows you 50 titles at the most, the first 2 had some "excess" ones. I've redone the Flick Project for 7 combining them, and it should make for a much better one. I'll burn it this afternoon. Will be interesting to see if this one (on a Mag disc like the last one) plays on my other player too. If it does, I may end up reburning all of them on Mag discs!















That was a very long, very boring post, wasn't it?

Mag. Is that a brand name? Never heard of it.
I tend to use TDK at the moment.
Is Mag any good? (doh! :oops: )
Where do you get them?

Oh, you Swedish sweetie, Magnus. :wink: :D :lol:

Mag Media, they're called. I'd never heard of them, I only got them (10 in a pack for $10) because the newsagents were out of Phillips. And stone me, I burned the second disc this afternoon and yes, my other dvd player plays it perfectly.

I'm not buying any Phillips DVD+R's again, that's for sure! :roll:

Some stupid **** running into my parents car this afternoon. It's a write-off. Was quite a dramatic scene, apparently, with smoke and airbags and everything. Dog was with them, too.

What makes it even worse is they just got it back from the crash repair shop YESTERDAY after some stupid **** ran into them a couple of weeks ago. Neither time was their fault.

There's some right stupid ******* on the road.

:evil: :shock: :(
