I tried searching but there are so many of these. I have burned 100s of DVDs with this setup before. I had nero 7 and it worked just fine. This started happening so i tried downgrading back to 6. I even completely formatted the computer and started fresh. Same thing. Here are the logs.

Upgrade Nero to 6.6.0.18 http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe Update your firmware here http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2081 Also try burning at 4x-8x instead of 16x
You could also update firmware from here http://codeguys.rpc1.org/firmwares/dvdrw/stock/Sony.D26A.JYS2.stock.rar
