I have been getting the dreaded "power calibration error" every time I go to burn a dvd. It is still working fine for cd - have tried everything - different media, cleaning the writer, disabling the IMAPI thingee, updating to the latest version of Nero 6, everything I can think of, and followed the advice in other forum threads regarding this problem. I'm fed up! Any alternative burners you can recommend - I only need something for dvd files. Thanks!!
I am also at the point to where I am looking or alternatives. Just looking to condense and burn DVD files I have ripped into my computer (via dvd decryptor). - can anyone recommend a good program??
Shrink compresses the file to fit 4.7 DVD. ImgBurn will burn the ISO file that Shrink can create. Your burner may on the way out. How old is it? Can you try it in another pc? If you're doing newer movies you'll need something to get past DRMs, because Shrink, or for that matter, Nero can't handle.
My burner is only a year or so old - I am able to burn discs very occasionally, but mostly get the "power calibration error". Thought ImgBurn might be the way to go, so I tried creating image in nero, then burning with ImgBurn, but I get a power calibration problem with this too... Does this sound like I need a new burner?? Any other tips I can try?? My computer has been running a bit unstable lately, would a clean windows install be a possibility for a fix, or do you think this will make no difference?

Nero 6.6.1.4 This version of Nero contains some bugs, uninstall, run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/en/Clean_Tools.html and then install this more stable version, BOTH packages Package 1: http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe Package 2: http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/NVE-3.1.0.21_no_yt.exe Far too much memory in use, dont multitask while burning. These arent the best quality discs, try Verbatim or Sony (made in japan)
Ok - followed directions and installed other version of Nero - still no go. Memory usage is still really high - but that's just running Nero, I can't figure out how to cut it down any further. Haven't got access to other media at the moment, but in the past I have never had any probs with these TDK ones. It just seems to have happened all of a sudden - I have a BTC DVDRW IDE 16X cheapie writer - it still burns cd discs fine, just not dvd. I haven't experienced any problems untill the past few days. Here is the new log since cleaning system and reinstalling: 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 6:35:34 p.m. Nero Version: 6.6.0.18 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 18e (Nero Express) Recorder: <DVDRW IDE 16X> Version: A091 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <DVDRW IDE 16X >Version: A091 - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : ST3160021A atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : DVDRW IDE 16X atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === DVDRW IDE 16X D: CDRom0 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 72351744 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 495MB (507376kB) Free physical memory: 91MB (93360kB) Memory in use : 81 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 1.3.2007 UDF/ISO compilation 10:27:19 p.m. #1 Phase 112 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 DVD-Video files reallocation started 10:27:19 p.m. #2 Phase 114 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 10:27:19 p.m. #3 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6359 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 : FALSE Allow more than 255 characters in path : FALSE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 10:27:19 p.m. #4 Phase 111 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 DVD-Video files sorted 10:27:20 p.m. #5 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 10:27:20 p.m. #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer DVDRW IDE 16X running 10:27:20 p.m. #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 10:27:20 p.m. #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 10:27:20 p.m. #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 10:27:20 p.m. #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 2298495 (510:46.45, 4489MB) Last address to be written: 1769231 (393:09.56, 3455MB) 10:27:20 p.m. #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 10:27:20 p.m. #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: DVDRW IDE 16X, Media type: DVD-R Disc Manufacturer: TTH02 - Disc Application Code: 64, Disc Physical Code: 193 10:27:20 p.m. #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 448 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 10:27:20 p.m. #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 + 1769232 (1769232) = #1769232/393:9.57 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/ required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 1769232 blocks [DVDRW IDE 16X] -------------------------------------------------------------- 10:27:20 p.m. #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1051 Prepare recorder [DVDRW IDE 16X] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

I am not sure but I think this may be your burner here, if so then do firmware update. http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1913 I cannot explain this error, I will do a "google"
Your memory usage is being used up by something other than Nero. How many programs are running in the bottom right of your taskbar (beside the clock?)
In the bottom right I have icons for ZoneAlarm, AVG antivirus, Norton A/V, & that's all. Usually the OpenOffice Quickstart is there, but I closed that before I tried the last burn. When I check the processes in the Task Manager, it says I have about 18,000K of memory available (that's without Nero running) but still, seems like it should be enough... then somehow when I burn it all disappears
