Problems @ Layer Break?

[biddy67]

I'm using ripit4me to make backups of Futurama disks. I have done two so far and on each one, when I try to play the third of five episodes, the player stops altogether. I've tested on three seperate DVD players, happens on all of them at the third episode--about halfway thru the disk, I'm guessing this is having problems with the layer break? I rip to VIDEO and AUDIO directories from ripit4me (latest), then burn using Nero Express, latest version. I'm using Verbatim +R DL disks on my BenQ DW1650 and booktyping to DVD-ROM because my panny will not play DVD+R format otherwise. I need to retain the -ROM format. Any ideas?

ripit to iso mode then imgburn to burn? no Nero or shrink should involve in any DL burning

You don't need to rip in ISO mode, but I agree with NightTran that you should never use Nero to burn a DL. Use ImgBurn (in Write mode to burn an ISO, or in Build mode to burn the DVD-Video files.)

Thanks guys, appears to be working fine. Sometimes I get a message saying "layer break not optimal" or something like that, other times a menu pops up with two choices to select a menu break. I'm guessing this is still ok, as I have not encountered any problems...
