I use DVD Shrink to burn region-free DVD-R; it uses Nero to do its work,
and my stuff always plays in my Odyssey.

I also use dvdshrink 3.2 and Nero 6.3.1.20 (I use Nero Express) using a

I use +R and +RW discs (Memorex and TDK) exclusively and have had no problem
playing any of them in my 2005 Ody.
Is it possible Alpine updated the dvd players for the 2005 models?

Re: Format for DVD in 2004 Odyssey RES
 

The new Burn.Now application from Ulead has one very interesting feature. It
will take MP3 or other forms of audio and encode them in AC3 so that you can
get 45 hours of audio on one 4.7 gb DVD. Super easy to use interface and
only 30.00 I use the shrink and nero for movies but will look at them for
audio as well.

Thanks for your input

If you have a DVD player in your car , you can encode up to 45 hours of very
good level quality audio. That is for Dual Layer, for single Layer its about
500 songs, nice to not have to swap out the audio CD's all the time.
