I have used up my first 50 pack and probably trash about 10 or 15 of those getting started (learning curve still continues - hense this post) , now I have not been able to get back to sams to get another 50 of the verbatim dvd-r(read post that quality media is important) and picked up 15 pack of maxell dvd-r and have trashed the first 3 using dvd copy x platinum. Looking at the media it looks like about have of it has been written to. and the error note is as follows (am I doing anything wrong or is it the Maxell?): DVDXCopy XPRESS Version: 4.0.3 _____________________________________________________________________ Build Date : Feb 6 2004 10:21:54 Current Date: Fri 8-20-2004 8:42:58 AM Windows Version: 5.1 DLL Versions: bouducon.dll 1.3.5.103 XPress.dll 1.0.0.0 Common.dll 1.0.0.0 vso_hwe.dll 1.3.14.118 XPress.exe 4, 0, 3, 8 Features: CSS: Yes SIMPLEMODE _____________________________________________________________________ Loading Resources : Crogram Files321StudiosPlatinumXPress.dll, Crogram Files321StudiosPlatinumCommon.dll Loading Controls Loading Progress Manager Available Drive : 1:0:0 - HP CD-Writer+ 8100 1.0g [J] (Ide) Selected Drive : 16:0:0 - LITE-ON DVDRW LDW-411S FS07 [D] (Usb) Using Selected Drive: 16:0:0 - LITE-ON DVDRW LDW-411S FS07 [D] (Usb) Using Selected Drive Index: 1 User agrees Start Looking For a movie Found D Found Movie: D _____________________________________________________________________ Looking for a movie..
