I am using 1clickdvdcopy and anydvd 6.0.9.0 I just installed the anydvd and restarted my computer. I have been using these two in combo. with each other for awhile, but now on several discs, I am getting a weird space between burn sets. I can see where the dvd has been burned and then there is a space of anywhere from 2mm to 1/4inch before there is more burned area. I just started having this problem and have made several coasters. I use Sony DVD-R discs. Can you help??
never heard of a problem like this. maybe the two programs are clashing with each other. does this mean you are trying to put more than one video on a disk? or does it mean that you are doing one DVD after the other and still getting bad burns? what is your make and model # of your burner? have you changed your media to Sony DVD-R or is this the ones you always burn to. try different media.... what speed are you burning at..... did you set the software to burn to a DVD5 and not a DVD9.... maybe the space in between is the software trying to make a layer break for a DVD9 and you're using a DVD5? who knows. I never used 1clickdvdcopy so I can't say what it's doing with the information you are giving.
From what I have read, burn rings have been attributed to anything from poor media, failing or insufficient PSU, to the most logical: The rings are caused by Zone P-CAV, Z-CLV write strategies. If you're burning at 6x, 8x, 12x, 16x you may notice the rings at the locations on the disc where the drive briefly stops writing, re-calibrates the laser, and then continues writing at a higher speed. You see a drive can't start out burning at the faster speed, it has to "shift into gear" much like a car. I would presume some drives handle this transition better than others. I've seen it discussed a few times at other forums and the members said not to be concerned.
The discs with this space will not play on my dvd player. Is this normal? Am I relegated to only burning at 4x?
you find a method that works for you and your equipment and stick to it! Unless you upgrade to newer equipment then try different methods.... use what works for you and stick with it! you'll find your collection growing this way.
