HI... I´ve just added some subtitles to a movie, and now I have all set to start burning, but the writting process fails. It says something like Focus or track error (my Nero is in spanish, so actually it says Error de focus o pista). Im using a Memorex DVD-RW at 2x. I know it´s not the brand of media, cause i´ve used this disc several times. But not too much. 2 or 3 times, tops. So, what can it be?? Let me post the log, and I´ll try to translate some of the messages in spanish. Thanx. === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : ST3120023A atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : ST320423A atapi Port 0 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : LG CD-ROM CRD-8322B atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120 E: CDRom0 LG CD-ROM CRD-8322B F: CDRom1 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: CmdQueuing : 1 CmdNotification: 2 WriteBufferSize: 52428800 (52428800) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 EraseSpeed : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 223MB (228848kB) Free physical memory: 90MB (93172kB) Memory in use : 59 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 6.11.2005 Compilación UDF/ISO 18:30:39 #1 Phase 112 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1836 Se ha iniciado la reasignación de archivos de DVD de vídeo (DVD Files reassignment started) 18:30:39 #2 Phase 114 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1836 Ha terminado la reasignación de archivos de DVD de vídeo (ningún archivo modificado) (DVD Files reassignment finished) (No file was modifyed) 18:30:39 #3 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6065 Iso document burn settings ------------------------------------------ Determine maximum speed : FALSE Simulate : FALSE Write : TRUE Finalize CD : TRUE Multisession : FALSE Burning mode : DAO Mode : 1 ISO Level : 1 (Max. of 11 = 8 + 3 char) Character set : ISO 9660 Joliet : TRUE Allow pathdepth more than 8 directories : FALSE Allow more than 255 characters in path : FALSE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 18:30:40 #4 Phase 111 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1836 Archivos de DVD de vídeo ordenados (DVD Files in order) 18:30:40 #5 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 118 Reader running 18:30:40 #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 124 Writer HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B running 18:30:40 #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3899 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 18:30:41 #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3899 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 18:30:41 #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3167 Turn on Disc-at-once, using DVD media 18:30:42 #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 245 Last possible write address on media: 2298495 (510:46.45, 4489MB) Last address to be written: 2288223 (508:29.48, 4469MB) 18:30:42 #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 257 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 18:30:42 #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2137 Recorder: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B, Media type: DVD-RW Disc Manufacturer: RITEKW - 01 Disc Application Code: 64, Disc Physical Code: 214 18:30:42 #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 418 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 18:30:42 #14 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 813 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (CTransferItem) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 2288224 (2288224) = #2288224/508:29.49 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 2288224 blocks [HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B] -------------------------------------------------------------- 18:30:42 #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 982 Prepare recorder [HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

hi and welcome, oh and don't label your translation as lame or anything, looks good to me. and anyway, these logfiles are straightforward enough that whichever language they're in they can be decoded quite easily (well this one can anyway!). there's some stuff to go on in the logfile you provided but some is missing, i need the first part after the section divider - You can differentiate sections via this section divider "====== *** Nero-Burning Rom, History File *** ======" - just don't forget to NOT post your serial number(s) which are usually underneath that line and usually being with '1A21' or similar. So i need the missing bits from the section divider to the start of the section of log you already posted...
Thanx Here it is: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 26/01/2004 19:12:15 ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Archivos de programa\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.59, size=160016 bytes, created 16/12/2003 20:18:06 Versión de Nero: 6.3.1.12 (Nero Express) Grabador: <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B>Versión: A115 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.3.1.12 Controlador de adaptador:<atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: < LG CD-ROM CRD-8322B>Versión: 1.10 - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.3.1.12 Controlador de adaptador:<atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : ST3120023A atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : ST320423A atapi Port 0 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : LG CD-ROM CRD-8322B atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120 E: CDRom0 LG CD-ROM CRD-8322B F: CDRom1 =======================
hi, i think this is my first Spanish Nero log, hope my answers make sense - Nero's too old, latest 6.x version is 6.6.0.16, download "update package 1" from here - http://ww2.nero.com/enu/nero-up.php - version A117 of your firmware is here - http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1841 - DMA needs to be ON, fix via this - http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/FAQ.htm - 512MB is what i consider the minimum for dvd work. you should get more memory, and for now you're gonna have to try hard to close down as much as you can to free up more memory - 4469MB means you're burning too close to outer edge of discs. If you use DVD Shrink, set target size to 4300MB in Shrink's preferences thus avoiding outer edge and not sacrificing much space - follow other suggestions and try a 'simulation burn' ie when you go to burn, untick 'burn' and tick 'simulation burn'. Nero will go thru the motions with a blank disc but not write to the disc and will append a log entry to your existing Nero log so you can paste that section here afterwards..
