Hi all I've had a good run of about 6 months with Nero and my new Philips burner, though recently it has started to fail when recording DVD movies, getsto about 60% each time. Ending the session with the message "Unkown burn phase". (I can can copy audio discs fine) I don't know which is at fault...Nero or the DVD burner? Here's a log from a recent failed attempt. Please let me know if you need any more info...thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 26/10/2004 17:35:34 Nero Version: 6.6.0.16 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 16b Recorder: <PHILIPS PBDV1640P> Version: B3.6 - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <PHILIPS PBDV1640P >Version: B3.6 - HA 1 TA 1 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 20 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : SAMSUNG SP0802N atapi Port 0 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : SAMSUNG DVD-ROM SD-612S atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : PHILIPS PBDV1640P atapi Port 1 ID 1 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : NERO IMAGEDRIVE2 2.26 imagedrv Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === SAMSUNG DVD-ROM SD-612S E: CDRom0 PHILIPS PBDV1640P F: CDRom1 NERO IMAGEDRIVE2 H: CDRom2 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 40894464 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 255MB (261620kB) Free physical memory: 67MB (69328kB) Memory in use : 73 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 29.1.2006 UDF/ISO compilation 16:50:52 #1 Phase 112 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 Unknown BurnPhase 16:50:53 #2 Phase 114 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 Unknown BurnPhase 16:50:53 #3 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6356 UDF document burn settings ------------------------------------------ Determine maximum speed : FALSE Simulate : FALSE Write : TRUE Finalize CD : TRUE Multisession : FALSE Burning mode : DAO Mode : 1 UDF Mode : UDF/ISO bridge UDF Revision : 1.02 UDF Partition Type : physical ISO Level : 1 (Max. of 11 = 8 + 3 char) Character set : ISO 9660 Joliet :FALSE Allow pathdepth more than 8 directories : TRUE Allow more than 255 characters in path : TRUE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 16:50:53 #4 Phase 111 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 Unknown BurnPhase 16:50:53 #5 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 16:50:53 #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer PHILIPS PBDV1640P running 16:50:53 #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 16:50:53 #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 16:50:53 #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 16:50:53 #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 2295103 (510:01.28, 4482MB) Last address to be written: 796879 (177:05.04, 1556MB) 16:50:53 #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 16:50:53 #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: PHILIPS PBDV1640P, Media type: DVD+R 16:50:53 #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 448 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 16:50:53 #14 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 838 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 () 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 796880 (796880) = #796880/177:5.5 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/ required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 796880 blocks [PHILIPS PBDV1640P] -------------------------------------------------------------- 16:50:53 #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1051 Prepare recorder [PHILIPS PBDV1640P] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

Just a couple of things at this stage. Memory is low try closing down any unnecessary progs while burning, I would suggest you add another stick (256meg) ram Your Nero is a couple of versions behind, latest is 6.6.0.18 go to Nero site and update.
Ok, thought i might be a memory problem...I'll look into it and then update this post if needed...thanks! which version do you suggest updating to? I've tried 7 before, didn't run very well!
6.6.0.18 is the one and only left for the series 6 ! It's here:- http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/enu/nero-up.php
