Hello
I have created my own powerpoint presentation and am trying to burn to dvd. I own the program camtasia that records the presentation then converts to avi. I then produce the avi and add music to presentation, which is all avi. I am running xp,pp2002 burning with nero 6. My question is the audio plays fine on the hd. I use nero express6 add my avi video. When viewed before burned the audio is excellent. Once the presentation is burned to dvd the audio in numerous places in the presentation is scratchy for 4-5 seconds. I have tried 7 times to burn to dvd same results each time. Thinking that it is the audio i moved the audio around in the presentation but different music in same place in presentation does the same thing. I am stuck any suggestions. Have email nero on numerous occasions but am not getting answers. I believe that i have everything in the background shut off, nothing appears to be running. Iam not sure what else to try I am using lg multi recorder. running pentium 4 458mb ram.

Leave Nero for the burning, not for any conversions. Have a read of this Tute on how to do it http://www.dvdrbase.com/showthread.php?t=25572 But if your presentation is only say 30 min long, then I would suggest you set the CD size in the Bitrate Tab to 1000. If an hour, then to 2000. This may be a lot more involved than the way you did it but it doesnt produce the problems you have.

The audio needs to be 48khz sampling rate, if at 44.1 then use GoldWave to resample it to 48khz.

I have done the conversion with camtasia which converts to avi(which is what i need it to be for dvd, right) allows me to resample the audio as well. Is it possible that not all burnt dvd except professional will work on standalone dvd. The same presentation that doesn't work correctly on standalone dvd works just excellent on the desktop with windvd and also laptop with windvd.
thanks for your help iam very new to burning dvds, have done lots of cd with not problem but this is a bugger.
thanks nola

i think you will have to take the Camtasia .avi you have produced and then converted it to .mpg using TMPGenc, using a pal dvd template, then burn to DVD Movie using Nero

Hello
Still doing the same thing. Could it just be a compatability issue with my standalone dvd. Have burned to dvd-r.

hello
purchase dvd x point and does a terrible job for powerpoint. Doesnot allow music and the presentation together, as soon as next slide goes the presentation stops. I do not suggest it, i use camtasia.
The music is still scratchy is same place as all of the other burned dvds.
The presentation was produced with camtasia 2.0 audio is 16 bit pcm, bit rate of 768kbps, also spoke with nero and email them the history and they advised that everything was burning properly just to clean pak. Thats why i wondered if it was a dvd compatablily issue.
Thanks again nola, i have learned alot from this forum, thanks for all the time you guys put in to help us newbies

The only other thing, is to try different media (the opposite type if your drive is a DUAL +/- ), or to try different source material prepared in a different way (eg. DVD copy as per the tutorials) - if you can prepare something in a way the the "brains" here know and understand, and it still won't play on a DVD player - then that pretty well proves that it doesnt like the media - unless you've already made burns that it IS happy with?

Look up your player here http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdplayers.php and see if it has any yes/no reports for the class of media (+R or -R) that you are using - the fact that TWO PC players are ok with it, and a standalone is not, is pointing strongly toward incompatibility.
