anyone know why when burning on nero the process stops at 92% im using dvd+r 8x speed- when i play em the picture/sound great but just not completin the burn thanks
Most likely the media quality.Stopping at 92%,that's getting near the outer edge of the disc. Some of the poor quality media may have uneven dye on that outer edge.A blank dvd will state 4.7 gbs.Actually about 4.38 gbs is max, after all the translations of the byte. We'll need some info: What is the brand name of those +8x blank discs? What's your burner model#? What programs are you using in the dvd backup process? Explain what and how you are backing them up. A nero burn log would also help. If you post it,please edit out your serial number starting like: 1A23-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx That log will give us: Media MID code/burner model#/firmware version/target size/ transfer mode and a lot of other info.
thanks the discs are datawrite the burners a sony dw-q58a and im using dvd shrink to back up- just tried another burn and its on the disc but freezes after about an hour with no sound and a still picture
hmmm, Datawrite use widely differing quality of disc manufacturers, the Nero log will show the disc details..
thanks creaky- dont know how to get the nero log up but used dvd id instead and the discs are mitsubishi chemical corp , type id 03 , dont knoy if this is any help see what ya think - ive also just defragged the hard drive as well to see if will do any good reply as soon as ya can mate gotta get this sorted , quick thanks again
mcc is pretty good media.try updating ur firmware. if that doesnt work try reinstalling nero. try the sony web site first for ur firmware update. if u cant get it there try this link...http://forum.rpc1.org/ .. here is another link with some help ....http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/FAQ.htm
@ncd72 - ok....i'm logging out soon as i'm watching 'Surface' on ITV2, then Dukes of Hazzard... as to the discs sound like you struck lucky with the datawrites this time - MCC003, very nice.. if it's Nero 6 - let's have LAST section of your Nero log which lives in c:\program files\ahead\nero\nerohistory.log but DO NOT post your serial number which usually begins with '1A21' or similar. You can differentiate sections via this section divider "====== *** Nero-Burning Rom, History File *** ======" if it's Nero 7 - let's have LAST section of your Nero log which lives in C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\NeroHistory but DO NOT post your serial number which usually begins with '5C80' or similar. You can differentiate sections via this section divider "====== *** Nero-Burning Rom, History File *** ======"
this is the log you require i think but i dont get one bit of it mate thanks 1A20-[bold]serial number removed[/bold] Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.59, size=160016 bytes, created 16/12/2003 18:18:04 Nero version: 6.3.0.6 (Nero Express) Recorder: <SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A> Version: UYS3 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.3.0.6 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : via Inquiry data (1) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI Connected to MMC as unknown drive with class-nr : 11 Drive is autodetected - recorder class: DVD+R9 DL recorder CD-ROM: <SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A >Version: UYS3 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.3.0.6 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : FUJITSU MHT2060AT atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A D: CDRom0 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: CmdQueuing : 1 CmdNotification: 2 WriteBufferSize: 73400320 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 EraseSpeed : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 502MB (514480kB) Free physical memory: 151MB (154648kB) Memory in use : 69 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 9.1.2006 UDF/ISO compilation 15:44:47 #1 Phase 112 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1802 DVD-Video files reallocation started 15:44:47 #2 Phase 114 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1802 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 15:44:47 #3 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6035 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 15:44:47 #4 Phase 111 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1802 DVD-Video files sorted 15:44:47 #5 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 118 Reader running 15:44:47 #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 124 Writer SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A running 15:44:47 #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3898 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 15:44:47 #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3898 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 15:44:48 #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3101 Turn on Disc-at-once, using DVD media 15:44:48 #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 244 Last possible write address on media: 2295103 (510:01.28, 4482MB) Last address to be written: 1422143 (316:01.68, 2777MB) 15:44:48 #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 249 Write in overburning mode: FALSE 15:44:48 #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2100 Recorder: SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A, Media type: DVD+R Disc Manufacturer ID: MCC, Media Type ID: 003, Product revision number: 0 Disc Application Code: 0, Extended Information Indicators: 3 15:44:48 #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 410 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 15:44:48 #14 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 809 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (CTransferItem) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 1422144 (1422144) = #1422144/316:1.69 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 1422144 blocks [SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A ] -------------------------------------------------------------- 15:44:48 #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 978 Prepare recorder [SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A ] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

you pasted the entire logfile, no biggie it meant your serial number snuck in. i've edit the post to removed the serial number and also to leave only one burn log entry.. - Nero's too old, latest 6.x version is 6.6.0.18, download "update package 1" from here - http://ww2.nero.com/enu/nero-up.php See comment further down re InCD also.. - firmware's up to date, in fact the link i have shows latest firmware to be UYS2 - http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2113 - yup, Nero's too old to recognise your burner, update Nero - you need to close down more programs prior to ALL dvd work/burning to free up more memory these are nice discs, as i say, not all Datawrite branded discs are much good - pretty good considering the things i've pointed out - InCD is Nero's horrid 'packet writing software', uninstall Nero then uninstall completely via Nero's Clean Tools, then reinstall Nero (6.6.0.18) WITHOUT installing InCD Another one of the burn log entries had this - - i guess the burners' firmware couldn't recognise the other discs
hello creaky thanks for that info- ive done everything you suggested and the drive now reads/writes to some other discs i bought.the picture and sound are great but im still getting the problem that when i burn the picture is freezing in sections.ive tried burning at slower speeds-2x/4/x but there still freezing.any suggestions? thanks mate
How are you viewing those backups when they give you that issue? Pc drive,using the same dvd-rw that burned it? Stand alone player? A different dvd-rom drive on the pc? It'll help us narrow down the issue. Your sony drive should be able to play it's own backups and they should look near perfect. 90% of those issues you describe are due to stand alone players. They will have more trouble with backups as apposed to original dvds.If a stand alone gives you: Pixellation/freezing/jumping/skipping/or no disc inserted error-Then they are telling you they don't like something about your backup.They can even have a lot of wear and tear on them,making them weaker. Sometimes a lens cleaning is in order,but I consider that a last resort. Let us know what drive/s show those issues.Try to verify them on other stand alones/game consoles/or pc drives to help narrow down the problem.The more drives,the better.Just look at the general vicinity when those issues show up.
