Lately, every time I try to back up one of the movies we bought, Nero gets to about 91% through the burn process and then it fails, saying burn error. This has never happened before, I use RipItForMe and have never had trouble. I usually can use ImgBurn after Nero fails, but I was wondering if someone could tell me what is wrong with my Nero? Thank you very much, here is the log: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 11/2/2004 11:54:32 AM NT-SPTI used Nero API version: 7.0.8.2 Using interface version: 6.3.1.4 Installed in: C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\ Application: ahead\Nero - Burning Rom Internal Version: 7, 0, 8, 2 Recorder: <_NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A> Version: 102C - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.0.8.2 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ? === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : Hitachi HTS541080G9AT00 atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : _NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A atapi Port 1 ID 0 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === _NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A D: CDRom0 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 83886080 (0) Byte BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 1023MB (1047960kB) Free physical memory: 120MB (123756kB) Memory in use : 88 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 4.1.2007 NeroAPI 5:25:16 PM #1 Phase 112 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 278 DVD-Video files reallocation started 5:25:16 PM #2 Phase 114 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 278 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 5:25:17 PM #3 Phase 111 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 278 DVD-Video files sorted 5:25:17 PM #4 Text 0 File ThreadedTransfer.cpp, Line 531 ReadBuffer-Pipe got 262144KB of Memory 5:25:17 PM #5 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 124 Reader running 5:25:17 PM #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 113 Writer D: _NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A running 5:25:17 PM #7 Text 0 File AudioCompilationImpl.cpp, Line 842 DRM: StartDrmRecording(RealRec:1, ImageRec:0, Copies:1) DRM: Beginning burn process. 5:25:17 PM #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File Geniso.cpp, Line 3312 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 5:25:17 PM #9 ISO9660GEN -11 File Geniso.cpp, Line 3312 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 5:25:17 PM #10 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3353 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 5:25:17 PM #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 289 Last possible write address on media: 2298495 (510:46.45, 4489MB) Last address to be written: 2286127 (508:01.52, 4465MB) 5:25:17 PM #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 301 Write in overburning mode: NO 5:25:17 PM #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2715 Recorder: _NEC DVD+-RW ND-6650A, Media type: DVD-R Disc Manufacturer: CMC MA - G.

Hello. It appears you installed Nero 7 over the top of Nero 6 without running the Nero 6 Clean Tool first. You may need to uninstall your current version, Run both the Nero 7 and Nero 7 Clean Tools and then reinstall Nero 7: http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero_6_CleanTool.html http://ww2.nero.com/nero7/enu/Nero7_CleanTool.html You're using CMC Mag made media which is of poor quality. Try some Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, and Made in Japan labeled media like Fuji and Sony. You have a lot of memory in use. Shutdown any programs not necessary. There's a newer firmware, version 103C available for your burner: ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/rmsd/NEC6650_v103C.zip You might want to adjust your target output size in your authoring software to 4400mb to avoid burning to the outer edge. I don't think I'd try burning at 8X with this laptop burner with this poorer quality media. Try 4X. You might also try using ImgBurn to burn your ISO or video folder. http://www.imgburn.com
Thank you for all the advice, I am going to follow all of it. Can you maybe improve my marriage while we're at it? You seem very knowledgeable. Just kidding! I am amazed at everything you knew about my computer from the log, it looks like mostly jibberish to me. If you can tell me my favorite movie from that log I'll give you........I was going to put a dollar amount there but what if you actually guess it?? Thanks again.
You're welcome. Hopefully, these changes will solve your problem. If not, post back and we'll go from there.
Quote: You might want to adjust your target output size in your authoring software to 4400mb to avoid burning to the outer edge. How exactly do I do that? Shrink usually opens Nero automatically after encoding, could you please tell me how to manually change the target output size? And in response to your suggestion about ImgBurn, I did use that and it actually failed on me also for this particular dvd. However, I went back and ran FixVTS and then ImgBurn worked. Sometimes I skip FixVTS if I'm feeling lazy and I paid for it in this case.
Hi. To change the target size in DVD Shrink: - Select Preferences... from the Edit menu. - Click the Preferences tab. - Under the Target DVD size: menu, select Custom and enter 4400 in the MB size box. - Click The OK button.
