Hi dear experts! Here's a newbie who's got the same problem as many others. However I've followed every step that I've seen recommended. ________________________________ Here are the facts in the case: 1. Usually I use DVD Decrypter for burning but suddenly it failed. Moved to my second choice: Nero, it failed and I got a log. 2. I've used Memorex 8x DVD+R for a good while with no problem. The other night a got the illegal disc failure while burning from my good ol' batch of Memorex. 3. Tried Verbatim 16x still the same log. 4. Upgraded the firmware for the DVD writer to the latest available. 5. Went through the ASPI routine and fixed that. I actually had an error mess for it first when checking with Aspichk but after using Forceaspi Aspichk says it's good. 6. Burning CDr works fine, reading DVD media works fine. 7. Tried writing data as well as iso-files with the same result. 8. I also cleaned the lens. 9. Checked DMA successfully. Is there anything left to do to make it work or should I rip the Philips driver out and let it sail from my 3rd floor balcony? Could anyone please help me? My Nero log looks like this: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 1999-09-10 12:06:00 ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.68, size=160016 bytes, created 2004-07-28 16:51:12 Nero version: 6.6.0.1 Recorder: <PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004> Version: 1.06 - HA 0 TA 0 - 6.6.0.1 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 0 Drive buffer : 8192kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 >Version: 1.06 - HA 0 TA 0 - 6.6.0.1 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 0 === Scsi-Device-Map === CdRomPeripheral : PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : FUJITSU MHT2040AT PL atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 D: CDRom0 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 74448896 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 511MB (523628kB) Free physical memory: 183MB (187824kB) Memory in use : 64 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 28.2.2006 Burn DVD Image 21:17:59 #1 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 21:17:59 #2 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 running 21:17:59 #3 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3117 Turn on Disc-at-once, using DVD media 21:18:00 #4 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 256 Last possible write address on media: 2295103 (510:01.28, 4482MB) Last address to be written: 2142135 (476:01.60, 4183MB) 21:18:00 #5 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 268 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 21:18:00 #6 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2309 Recorder: PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004, Media type: DVD+R 21:18:00 #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 430 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 21:18:00 #8 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 844 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (2 - CD-ROM Mode 1, ISO 9660) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 2142136 (2142136) = #2142136/476:1.61 not relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/not required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 2142136 blocks [PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004] -------------------------------------------------------------- 21:18:00 #9 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1047 Prepare recorder [PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

For some reason your log keeps indicating a CD is present, its obviously NOT recognizing DVDs for some reason. This is what I am questioning
Nero in ancient, get 6.6.0.18 here: http://httpdl2.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe This error means that your burner doesn't like your discs...Since your firmware is the most current according the RPC1 and you've already admitted to using Memorex, my suggestion would be to try another brand as your good 'ole Memorex's have let you down. Try some Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden, Sony, Fuji, Maxell (made in Japan). Try the Nero update and then both brand blanks.
Thanks for your reply. Where in the log do you see that it does interpret the media as a CD? Is there any known fix for it? As I said, the driver plays dvds without any hustle. // Oh, another answer while I was writing. Thanksalot. About the version of Nero: it has worked perfectly and still does when writing cds. I've also tried DVD Decrypter which won't burn either. That goes for both Memorex and Verbatim. As I said, I've already tried Verbatim (hailed by most) but it won't do it either. Any more suggestions?
Its sitting right here, same place as my post above. You were told to change Nero version once now for the second change to version of Nero recommended by loco.
Oh sorry, was a bit quick in reading. Well spotted. Do you have any suggestion what might have happened? Hardware or software? Anyone heard of this before? I'll update Nero, and try blanks and then get back to you guys. Thanks alot, at least I'm on the right track now.
Once again thanks for your kind support. I've updated Nero as recommended but I still get the same error, here's the last log: ____________________________________________________________ Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: File 'Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=4.60 (1021), size=45056 bytes, created 1999-09-10 12:06:00 ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 2004-10-26 17:35:34 Nero Version: 6.6.0.18 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 18e Recorder: <PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004> Version: 1.06 - HA 0 TA 0 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 0 Drive buffer : 8192kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 >Version: 1.06 - HA 0 TA 0 - 6.6.0.18 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 0 === Scsi-Device-Map === CdRomPeripheral : PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On DiskPeripheral : FUJITSU MHT2040AT PL atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 D: CDRom0 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 74448896 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 511MB (523628kB) Free physical memory: 168MB (172156kB) Memory in use : 67 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 28.2.2006 Burn DVD Image 23:31:53 #1 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 23:31:53 #2 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004 running 23:31:53 #3 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 23:31:53 #4 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 2295103 (510:01.28, 4482MB) Last address to be written: 2142135 (476:01.60, 4183MB) 23:31:53 #5 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 23:31:53 #6 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004, Media type: DVD+R 23:31:53 #7 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 448 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 23:31:53 #8 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 838 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (2 - CD-ROM Mode 1, ISO 9660) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 2142136 (2142136) = #2142136/476:1.61 not relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/not required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 2142136 blocks [PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004] -------------------------------------------------------------- 23:31:53 #9 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1051 Prepare recorder [PHILIPS DVD+RW SDVD6004] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

So is this the really the matter? The drive sounds like it doesn't find the disc alright although the info I get from Nero states that I have a DVD+R disc inserted in the drive before starting the burning process. Further suggestions badly needed or I'll go crazy here.
I'm afraid that the burner just doesn't like those discs, and for some reason the MID isn't showing on the log. Please DL DVD Identifier and run both Memorex and Verbatim's and post back the results. DVD Identifier: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_tools/dvd_identifier.cfm
Update: Edit: you beat me to the clock... but here's what I wrote while you posted... I'll try your newest suggestions. /I saw in another thread that there's a line or two that's showing if the media is read alright. I found these are missing in my log. It only says: "DVD+R" and nothing about what kind it is. Does this point towards a firmware problem? Although Verbatim seems to be the shit, maybe my stack is faulty? I'll have to buy a number of different discs and start from there. Any input is appreciated./

It's past midnight here in the cold north of Europe. Night.
@LOCOENG, Me thinks it's time for a coffee break, whats the "go" with the CD comments, seems like it wont recognize it as DVD This my seem a dumb question but when you open Nero are you clicking make DVD or Make VideoCD
I run in DVD mode alright. No doubt about that. Several other posters with the same issue has also the "CD"-info in their logs so I wouldn't think that it makes the big difference. Also does not DVD Decrypter - ever stable - burn for me.
@Gwen No quams with the CD thing, as of right now I don't know what the problem is...so anything will help. @hoppla MCC's are good, definately Verbatim....don't go and buy anymore Memorex, trust me. Dig one out of the trash and run it through the identifier. Good night, sleep tight and may there be answers for you in the morning. Edit: How about a DVDD log, got one to post?
Thanks both of you qwen & loco! But please don't make me go through my trash... I'll try some DVD RW tomorrow instead. May there be answers tomorrow.

I could be way off track with this but it's only something "highlighted" so others can comment Your disc indicates Are you trying to burn faster than your disc allows?
I don't have an option to burn at any other rate. It's only 2.4x that's possible. The disc says 16x. But I see what you mean. Don't think that's the issue tho. Next?
