Start with a clean set up:

-   Use upper case file names only

-   Use mkisofs by hand (mkisofs -dvd-video)

-   Use a DVD-R medium

-   Use cdrecord-ProDVD to write

You really should ask different questions. To start with "Has anybody
succeeded with DVD+RW in XBOX? And if somebody did, what did it take?"
and *then* "Has anybody succeeded with DVD-Video content as produced by
DVD Shrink in XBOX?" Please note that I'm not saying that I know the
answers to the suggested questions [as I don't and the public is
welcomed to fill in!]. All I'm saying is that answering "yes. no.
maybe." to the above questions would hardly help:-) A.
