Just messing around tryng to get my 20x's working I found this worked,..at least for me.
I leave the movie out of the drives,..

then I activated anydvd:

then I opened Recode2,..selected "Record main movie to dvd"

then put the movie in,..anydvd did what it does,

and no problem,. ..can you beat that crap,..oh well.

did the same steps for Shrink,...but chose "Reauthor" before putiing the disk in the drive.

Give it a try on your 165 and then post back.
