okay... it broke again, but only after running DVD43 (3.9.0) and Nero Recode. I'm not sure which of the two is responsible for the issue... I'm inclined to say DVD43. I shutdown DVD43 and tried burning the files again, and it still refused the +Rs. I restarted the machine (no DVD43 running) and it burned with Nero (7.5.9.0) just fine. I'll attempt to narrow down if it's DVD43 or Nero Recode that's causing the problem. (Sorry if this running commentary is annoying anyone, but I want to have a log of the issue available on the forums for anyone else who may happen across this problem.)
CDBurnerXP (like most of the free burning apps) doesn't do DVD-Video. From their site: --------------------- - Burning video-DVDs is limited. Q: Why does the burned DVD not work in my DVD Player? A: CDBurnerXP currently does not support burning with the UDF filesystem, which is needed for some DVD players to work. We also don't know when it will be supported, so please don't ask for that feature.
You Jinxed Me losty. i was in the middle of converting files went to burn them and guess what same error again. what is up with that but i think mine came up b/cause i updated nero. Dont know why i did that but i installed ver.7.0.8.2 and im back up an running. Also doggy you might want to try another ripper other than dvd4free. All ive read about that program is bad reviews. just a suggestion. if it works for you though thats cool but giving you a heads up...
That's the Nero-7.0.8.2_eng_no_yt.exe version... isn't the no_yt.exe an "update" vs. full version? do I need to have a prior version installed to use it?
No you don't need a previous install to use it. Just use the serial # you have for Nero not the one in this download. Give this free burning program a shot - see if the problem is w/ Nero or the discs your using - ImgBurn. If you doing the video files use the build mode to burn.
I'm certain the problem is with Nero, since CDBurnerXPPro burned the disc just fine... it didn't play in the DVD player because CDBXP doesn't support UDF... but that's no fault of the media or the drive. What I want to figure out is what triggers Nero into rejecting the DVD+Rs. It burns them fine upon restarting the computer, but as soon as I use DVD43 and Nero Recode it starts rejecting them... until I reboot. I need to run some more tests, but currently I don't have anything in need of burning. I'll post again when I figure out what the culprit is.
I'd start w/ DVD43 - it's been known to cause conflicts. You can try AnyDVD running in the background or rip w/ DVDFab Decrypter. But uninstall DVD43 1st - doesn't always play well w/ either of these. Keep us posted!
