I sometimes get an error message after I have backed up a dvd when i clicked the X usually after I have already ejected the disk. Although when I play the dvd all seems in order. Hmmm... why is this happening it makes me nervous. Any and all help appretiated.
oops sorry, the error message says something like copy of image files to disk not was not successful.
DVDRyan, Do you have a Trial Version or did you buy CloneDVD 2? Either way, I would recommend uninstalling CloneDVD 2, Re-Boot. Use a registry cleaner like Crap Cleaner, available FREE at www.ccleaner.com Use "Scan for issues" mode, fix all. Re-install CloneDVD 2. If you have a "key", which means you bought CloneDVD 2, re-register it. Re-Boot. This should fix your problem.
Ok, the error message says, "Creation of DVD files was not successful: directory not found: E:/VIDEO_TS" details ------> "OSUtilIO [WString] TCE"
You might be burning at a rate too high for your computer. Also, some software conflicts with CloneDVD. Try burning slower first.

I am burning at the lowest speed (1x). Also I dont have any other programs running, except for spy sweeper in the back, which i'll experiment shutting down b4 i back up a dvd. And I got the crap cleaner which doesn't work much better than windows washer 6.0, I do have a fairly clean comp and do a defrag every week or so. as well as daily spy sweep. Oh, and I do have the latest version of CloneDVD2 and Anydvd. This never happened till the latest 3 or 4 versions of anydvd I think.
Have you tried another ripping program like DVDFab Decrypter or RipIt4Me to see if you get errors. Also, you can burn faster than 1x, burning too slow is just as bad as burning too fast. With today's 16x media there is no reason to burn at 1x.
[bold]DVDRyan[/bold] Shutting down SpySweeper may help, but I have Spysweeper & I keep it running without any issues. You should also up that burn speed too. 1x is too slow. General Rule: Burn at 1/2 the rated speed for media with your burner. Or, 4x. I would uninstall CloneDVD 2 like I suggested before,Re-Install, and don't change the defaults. Select the target drive as whatever your DVD Burner is. CloneDVD 2 DOES copy to your hard drive temporarily before it writes to your burner drive. After you are done, eject the finished back up using the button in CloneDVD that say "Eject" wait a second and close the program. The temporary files are automatically deleted by CloneDVD 2.
i didnt know burning at low speed was bad, i was burning at max speed then someone told me speed affects quality so i dropped it to 1x thinking id be the best quality. i usemaxell, it says 16x. so i guess ill do at 4x? thanks.
Mate to know wat exactly is the manifacturer of your Blank media try this program. http://dvd.identifier.cdfreaks.com/ I hope that helps
[bold]DVDRyan[/bold] What model and make burner are you using with the Maxells? If it supports 16x burning with your media, then burning at 8x would be a safe speed. Especially if it is Maxell DVD+R MIJ. But if you aren't sure, burn at 4x. That will be fine & produce good quality burns. By the way, you do not have Nero INCD installed do you? If so, uninstall it! It is a "known issue" with DVD burning.
I have no clue what burner I have but it came with comp not external. Comp is HP and fairly new. I just burn at 4x, is good with me, hell I was burning at 1x for a while, 4x will be a breeze. um, don't have Nero installed. Also, it's Maxell DVD+R 4.7 GB, 16x, but what does MIJ stand for, and my disc says RW, does that mean re-writable? Maxell is good media right? Sorry for all the questions >.<
@DVDRyan Download DVD Identifier this program will tel you what your real manifacturer is and then we can tell you if the medai you are using is good media. Just post the results here and we will let you know. http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_tools/dvd_identifier.cfm There you go. Also remember to burn at max 4x when you are burning. Burning at a too fast speed can cause many other issues with your backup.
