gibby,

One thing at a time.

In the Advanced mode the screen will list titles with a little + sign next to them. Right next to that there's a little blank gray box. Place your cursor over that little gray box and click it. It should place a check mark in that little gray box and all the other functional buttons will highlight on your screen.

I have the DVD X Copy Platinum
Everything is working fine except that went I go to preview video it give me a window that it read “FAILED to initiate filter. Install the entire DirectX filter coming with setup”
I check and I have the latest DirectX version.
What can be the problem?

rickytin,

Are you actually selecting a title that can be previewed?
Look for a title that has a lot of chapters, select it with a checkmark in the little gray box, highlight it and then click the preview button.

Yes I am selecting a title that can be previewed.
The thin is I can preview the title but it always give me
“FAILED to initiate filter. Install the entire DirectX filter coming with setup”

Thank Ricky

rickytin,

Install Platinum again right over the top of your existing Platinum installation.

See if that cures it.

Right now I reinstall some applications and it doesn't give me the problem with DirectX.
Now my question is when I preview the file selected should I hear audio.

I am making a machine for editing video so I install a program for editing (Avid), also the program that came with the DVD burner (Nero, a DVD player,etc) and some upgrade of Windows XP.

I uninstall the DVD x copy platinum and I reinstall but sill don't record to DVD.

rickytin,

Could you tell us what your O/S is and if it's got the latest Service Pack. Service Pack 1 or 1a for XP, Service Pack 4 for Windows 2000.

What is the model of your burner and does it have the latest firmware.

What version of Nero do you have installed and is Nero's InCD installed?
