After you've made all the copies

[Peru]

Personally, I always burn a "test" DVD RW, and then play that in 6 different set-top players from an esoteric, down to a US$49 cheapie. If that DVD plays in each, I also test it in three different computer DVD drives, with a handful of DVD software players.

Wow! Do you have that many machines set up?

Chuck,

I do get lax, depending on the Project. If, however, I am delivering multiple sets, I'll go through the process, before burning all the dupes. Then, I'll grab a random one, or two, of the dupes and check them out on the higher-end and lowest-end units - just to be sure. It's the DVD version of the carpenter's mantra - "measure twice and cut once.

Peru,

I seem to have a load of these. Only one was purchases specifically as a test unit. The others just seemed to come, as I added TV's to the house. Also, as we purchased a one-owner home, and it's on a mountainside with no real basement, and the attic is not very accommodating, I do not have all the feeds to centralize my entertainment systems, and control thing remotely, so most TV's have their own player wired to it, and one is a combo unit with TV/VHS/DVD in it.
