DVD burning problem
 

Hi all, having problems burning dvd's, a quick background, upgraded my pc a while back ( thanks Zing ) and haven't been able to burn since, ( not that I blame the upgrade ;) ) I've tried a few different progs, Nero, DVDshrink A120 etc etc, all with nearly the same result and no disc at the end, I thought it might be software so have formatted and re-installed everything, tried Nero again just now and got the same result, posting a copy of the error log, it means diddly to me but may mean something to others.

Thanks for any and all help

Win XP Pro
Intel processor 805 D
1550 mb ram
Liteon dvdrw

Anything else ..... ?

Try a different ide lead? its all there and appears ok from what I can see (so it doesnt look like I did something wrong lol ) update firnware on dvd rw and/or try in a different machine just in case its just died or maybe borrow a different machine. Does it burn cd's ok?

Re: DVD burning problem
 

I'll try a different lead, never crossed my mind that you did something wrong :D never updated firmware in my life :confused: haven't got a cd to try atm unfortunately, I'll try the lead and post back :tu:

Thanks mate.

Re: DVD burning problem
 

Have you tried different DVD brands? Not only can you get fault DVDs, but you sometimes some dyes won't work with a certain burner period.

Also, does it happen with a CD as well as DVD?

Also, could try at slower burning speed.

Re: DVD burning problem
 

t is as it happens............. Mmmmm, food for thought, although I used to use it with no problem

I only have one brand with me atm Sony accucore 120 min / 4.7 gig
Haven't got a cd to burn :(
Tried at the lowest speed


Update, tried a different lead, now the drives ( dvd rw and cd rw ) aren't showing at all, I'll check from the board and post back :confused:

EDIT: faulty lead, swapped out and now can see the rom drives, gonna try and burn again, fingers crossed :tu:

EDIT EDIT : no joy, started nero away and it spat the disk out straight away, gotta go for a bit, thanks so far, BRB :tu:

I've been getting the same problem for a couple of weeks now (jerky pic, or lack of sound, or both) using DVDsanta and several other programs. GSpot says that files that have burned succesfully before are now non-standard! I have tried rolling back with Xvid and DivX to no avail...

Re: DVD burning problem
 

try find a cd/dvd cleaner might help? like a cd you put in etc to clean the head[s] erm also was told convertx to dvd one of the best programs to burn dvd's with worth looking about for online.

as for updates to the hardware / firmware try the liteon website might just help? also if cant find your model try search say google for the make of dvd rom? good luck

Re: DVD burning problem
 

Have tried convertx, same problem, the dvd rom can read disks fine, plays dvd's fine etc etc, just wont write, I'll have a look at updating the firmware.

Re: DVD burning problem
 

What happens when you do a test burn? Still says it fails?

Re: DVD burning problem
 

Are the (vob) files that you wish to burn corrupted too? That's what I'm getting now....

Re: DVD burning problem
 

Have you tried burning with alcohol 120% ?

Re: DVD burning problem

Nope, burning from an image file......or trying to :D



Have you tried reading post #1 :dozey: :rolleyes: :D :D thanks though, how's TT ?

OK, just upgraded firmware, will try again, also I'll try a test burn and try a dvd+ as well ..brb

Sorted, a firmware upgrade has sorted it out The Da Vinci code is on the menu for tonight :tu: question though, could the pc upgrade to duel core have anything to do with it, and could the firmware have been the solution to the duel core upgrade, if it was that ????

and still waiting to hear from HM as to if and when :tu:

For now though, problem solved, greenies on the way :D
