I just tried burning to a verbatim 16x DVD... heard mixed reviews of the quality but verbatim is usually reliable (not even sure if this has anything to do with the disc). I dragged all the VOB TUS and BUP files over to the video_TS folder, set it at 4x write speed, then hit burn and less than 20 seconds later it gave me the error "Burn Process Failed at 4x" [bold]EDIT: does it make a difference that they're +R discs and my drive is +RW?[/bold] 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 10/26/2004 6:35:34 PM Nero Version: 6.6.0.16 Internal Version: 6, 6, 0, 16b Recorder: <_NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A> Version: 104D - HA 1 TA 0 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI CD-ROM: <SCSIVAX DVD/CD-ROM >Version: 2.7a - HA 2 TA 0 - 6.6.0.16 Adapter driver: <vax347s> HA 2 === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : HTS726060M9AT00 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : _NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : SCSIVAX DVD/CD-ROM 2.7a vax347s Port 2 ID 0 DMA: Off CdRomPeripheral : Generic DVD-ROM 1.0 d347prt Port 3 ID 0 DMA: Off === CDRom-Device-Map === _NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A E: CDRom0 SCSIVAX DVD/CD-ROM F: CDRom1 Generic DVD-ROM G: CDRom2 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 83886080 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 1023MB (1047764kB) Free physical memory: 343MB (352108kB) Memory in use : 66 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 22.8.2005 UDF/ISO compilation 5:08:42 PM #1 Phase 112 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 DVD-Video files reallocation started 5:08:42 PM #2 Phase 114 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 5:08:42 PM #3 Text 0 File Isodoc.cpp, Line 6356 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 : TRUE Allow more than 255 characters in path : TRUE Write ISO9660 ;1 file extensions : TRUE 5:08:42 PM #4 Phase 111 File dlgbrnst.cpp, Line 1832 DVD-Video files sorted 5:08:42 PM #5 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 127 Reader running 5:08:42 PM #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 122 Writer _NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A running 5:08:42 PM #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 5:08:42 PM #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3309 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 5:08:43 PM #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3233 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 5:08:43 PM #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 270 Last possible write address on media: 2295103 (510:01.28, 4482MB) Last address to be written: 2286127 (508:01.52, 4465MB) 5:08:43 PM #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 282 Write in overburning mode: NO (enabled: CD) 5:08:43 PM #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2483 Recorder: _NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A, Media type: DVD+R 5:08:43 PM #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 448 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 5:08:43 PM #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 + 2286128 (2286128) = #2286128/508:1.53 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/ required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 2286128 blocks [_NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A] -------------------------------------------------------------- 5:08:43 PM #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 1051 Prepare recorder [_NEC DVD+RW ND-6100A] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

nah, I just burned it successfully on some Memorex DVD+RW that was lying around... I guess my burner must have a problem with the Verbatim 16x discs. Hopefully best buy will take them back =/
