One thing.........Nero isn't the best software for burning DL discs. Most folks here use IMGBurn to do it. Get it here:http://www.imgburn.com I, personally, like DVD Decrypter. Also, most of us here prefer Verbatim DL discs. Have never had a coaster with them. If you're trying to copy a newer movie, you'll need something like DVD43, or AnyDVD, to get by the new copy protections.I, personally, prefer AnyDVD. But, it's not free, like the others. Maybe someone else will chime in with more suggestions. Good luck! I saw where it said it failed to write sectors. The newer copy protections puts bad sectors on the dvds, to stop the copying. DVD43 or AnyDVD running in the background, may do it for you.
cheers jvc but this problem ocours when i try write any thing on a dl disc normal dvds are writng fine must be something thats different when writing to dl discs also tried imgburn same problem also tried burning at 2x and 4x same problem also updated to GLOC latest firmware still same problem will try some verbatim discs see if anything changes
Have you guys checked for firmware upgrades, for your burners? Check here: http://codeguys.rpc1.org/firmwares.html Good luck! @dj18800.......... I also saw this in your log: DL movies are almost 8gb. You might want to try NTFS setup on your computer, instead of FAT 32. You might want to look at this. It's NTFS vs FAT http://www.ntfs.com/ntfs_vs_fat.htm Good luck!
hi jvc upgraded firmware from 1.23 to 1.29 on pioneer 111d both unseccessful, both hard drives set to ntfs
