ok..i was using nero 7 to burn a avi file with a menu but then after bout 2 mins in the movie i was gettin' playback problems. the movie would skip farward bout 1 to 2 mins. I was using memorex dvd-r disc so i started to use winavi to convert my avi files to dvd files and use nero to burn.. now i started using dynex dvd-r from best buy (5 bucks for 100 disc day after thanksgiving) some playback just fine some might have a small freeze in it but nothing major. but today i actually had 3 burns fail and the 2 that didn't fail did mess up on playback about 15 mins into the movie so bad that i couldn't finish the movie unless i wanted to miss bout 10-15mins of the movie.. my first ? is i'm pretty sure i need to update my firmware according to what i've learn here on this site.. where can i get a update 2nd ? how do i change the setting in nero to make them all burn at 4x.. some burn at 8 and 16 also learning from this site the slower the beter. 3rd ? should i use a different method of converting and burning any comments welcomed... here's my log file THANKS IN ADVANCE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 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 1:54:32 PM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 7.5.7.0 Internal Version: 7, 5, 7, 0 (Nero Express) Recorder: <HL-DT-ST DVDRRW GWA-4166B>Version: 1823 - HA 1 TA 0 - 7.5.7.0 Adapter driver: <IDE> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

PS after the burn fails in nero it freeze up i have to do the alt control detlet option to end it sorry for second post i couldn't find a edit buttom.
Update your Nero from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/ You are using a lot of memory, dont multitask while burning You are using good quality discs, however try slowing burn to 4X Firmware doesnt seem to be a problem.
thanks for reply..but how do i select a slower speed, i see no choices for burn speed. on older version it was on the same page as the burn button.
