Hi everyone. Sorry to be a lemon but I'm having trouble burning my .avi videos to DVD, and I'm kakkin up loads of discs. I have my error log saved and available to post for any clever people to notice my problem. Thought I'd better crack on and post the error log starightaway incase anyone could sort it. [
Update your firmware here: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=2175 Your DMA needs to be turn on. Here is an excellent guide: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260038 And burn at 4x instead of 8x
Hi nasayin, Thanks for your speedy response. I;m having a look at the links you suggested, but I think the firmware relates to unlocking the drive for region free. I'm not really bothered about this at the momment, and am more interested in in the second link, though I'm not really sure what to do with it. I have two primary IDe channels and two secondary channels. All, other than the 2nd Primary channel show the transfer mode as-DMA if applicable, and current transfer mode the same. However, the 2nd Primary channel shows, transfer mode-DMA if applicable and current transfer mode as Multi-word DMA Mode 2. I've unistalled one driver and rebooted, but don't know eather or not to do the rest at this point. Is there anyway of finding out if the settings are correct, without running the risk of making a coaster? Thnaks
On both your Primary and Secondary IDE, is your Trasfer mode set to "DMA if Available" If so, is your Current Transfer Mode set to "Ultra DMA Mode"? Updating your firmware also gives you more compatibility with your dvd disc. The choice is up to you. Also, do not use your machine while burning or converting. From your log, your memory is getting too low. You have 1 gig of memory which is more than enough to burn a dvd. But do not use your computer doing so.
lol yeah I was playing PES. I have done it in the past, on a much slower PC. But I will stop cos that's what I keep reading. I only have one disc drive, but you could probably tell that already. The only one that has a current transfer mode selected is on Multi-word DMA Mode 2, and I can't change it. I'll give the firmware I try, but is it as simple as following the links? Thnaks
Multi-Word DMA 2 is fine. Make sure both your Primary and Secondary are like that. Your hard drive had DMA off in the log file. Download version PS0B and update your dvd firmware. If you are unfamiliar, you can always refer to liteon website for assistance.
You are talking about device 1. You probably don't have anything on Device 1 so it is set to Not Applicable. Just make sure Device 0 is set to Multi-Word DMA.
Yeah, it definatly is. I just installed the firmware update, and tried a short avi to see if it worked. It still messed up on the writing lead-in process. I wasn't playing games this time, or in fact using the PC at all. Here's the error log, if you'd be so kind as to have a look, I would appreciate it.
I believe this Nero version is buggy. Also edit out your serial number starting with 1A in both log. Write down your serial number and I would suggest to downgrade Nero to 6.6.0.18. Do the following: 1.Run this clean tool http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/en/Clean_Tools.html 2. Install Nero 6.6.0.18 from here http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe 3. Install Nero Vision from here http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/NVE-3.1.0.21_no_yt.exe Your DMA is still showing Off. Are you sure DMA is enable? Your memory is getting too low. Shut off any unneccessary apps. Tried burning at 4X
Sorry about that. I updated the link, should be working now. Make sure to edit out your serial number in both logs here. You don't want anyone copying your serial number
