    Pinnacle Instant CD/DVD Ver. 8

    I have burned quite a few disc with Pinnacle In CD/DVD Ver. 8 with no problem but all of a sudden the burns are getting jerky on play back. The play back stops every five seconds or so then continues. I then tried burning with Ulead Movie Studio 2 Se which works. Pinnacle would work on the second try too. I did an update of Pinnacle which was 32mg. It now says Version 8.3.0.8. I did not want to make another coaster so I wondered if anyone else had this problem before I tried again.

    If your backup freezes, stutters, skips, or has some pixelation, it is more than likely due to poor quality media being used. Cheap media is poorly manufactured around the edge of the disc, hence the reason why it mostly skips toward the end of the movie. The two main things to consider first are:
    • Is it cheap media that you are using? (ie. some off brand you bought at a local computer store/fair, even a store like Circuit City or Best Buy sells cheap low quality media.)
    • How fast are you burning? - Burn no faster than 4X, might have to go down to 2X with really cheap media.


    Also, are you using adhesive labels on your back ups? If so, try removing the labels (if you can) and playing them again. Go here for more info on why not to use labels. - http://forum.digital-digest.com/show...threadid=28604

      I am using Memorex 8x media. I usually burn full out but even at a slow setting I had this problem. Not with Ulead Studios though. I always use this media as I have good luck with it, maybe a bad batch? The on off every five seconds or so was through the whole movie. (Not that I watched it like that, fast foward and chapter skip revealed the problem throught).
