Hi, I just started burning DVD's and was successful with my first one. However with #2 I keep getting an error message about 3-4 mins. into the burn process... I tried burning with Nero as well as directly through Decryptor and got the following Problem Log... if anyone has any idea of what is happeing and why, I would greatly appreciate it... thanks. 1a20-0100-0000-1642-3014-9463 Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.68, size=160016 bytes, created 7/22/2004 5:33:44 PM Nero API version: 6.3.1.25 Using interface version: 6.3.1.4 Installed in: C:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\ Application: ahead\Nero - Burning Rom Recorder: <ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16> Version: G7C9 - HA 0 TA 1 - 6.3.1.25 Adapter driver: <atapi> HA 0 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : default (0) -> ATAPI, detected: ATAPI === Scsi-Device-Map === DiskPeripheral : SAMSUNG SP1604N atapi Port 0 ID 0 DMA: On CdRomPeripheral : ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16 atapi Port 0 ID 1 DMA: On === CDRom-Device-Map === ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16 D: CDRom0 ======================= AutoRun : 1 Excluded drive IDs: WriteBufferSize: 70254592 (0) Byte ShowDrvBufStat : 0 BUFE : 0 Physical memory : 479MB (490864kB) Free physical memory: 117MB (120476kB) Memory in use : 75 % Uncached PFiles: 0x0 Use Static Write Speed Table: 0 Use Inquiry : 1 Global Bus Type: default (0) Check supported media : Disabled (0) 19.1.2005 NeroAPI 1:28:01 PM #1 Phase 112 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 273 DVD-Video files reallocation started 1:28:01 PM #2 Phase 114 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 273 DVD-Video files reallocation completed (no file modified) 1:28:01 PM #3 Phase 111 File APIProgress.cpp, Line 273 DVD-Video files sorted 1:28:02 PM #4 Text 0 File Reader.cpp, Line 126 Reader running 1:28:02 PM #5 Text 0 File AudioCompilationImpl.cpp, Line 817 DRM: StartDrmRecording(RealRec:1, ImageRec:0, Copies:1) DRM: Beginning burn process. 1:28:02 PM #6 Text 0 File Writer.cpp, Line 124 Writer ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16 running 1:28:02 PM #7 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3899 First writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 1:28:02 PM #8 ISO9660GEN -11 File geniso.cpp, Line 3899 Fi rst writeable address = 0 (0x00000000) 1:28:02 PM #9 Text 0 File Burncd.cpp, Line 3152 Turn on Disc-At-Once, using DVD media 1:28:02 PM #10 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 247 Last possible write address on media: 2297887 (510:38.37, 4488MB) Last address to be written: 2286127 (508:01.52, 4465MB) 1:28:02 PM #11 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 259 Write in overburning mode: NO 1:28:02 PM #12 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 2162 Recorder: ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16, Media type: DVD-R Disc Manufacturer: TDKG02 - 000000 Disc Application Code: 64, Disc Physical Code: 193 1:28:02 PM #13 Text 0 File DlgWaitCD.cpp, Line 420 >>> Protocol of DlgWaitCD activities: <<< ========================================= 1:28:02 PM&nb sp;#14 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 813 Setup items (after recorder preparation) 0: TRM_DATA_MODE1 (CTransferItem) 2 indices, index0 (150) not provided original disc pos #0 + 2286128 (2286128) = #2286128/508:1.53 relocatable, disc pos for caching/writing not required/required, no patch infos -> TRM_DATA_MODE1, 2048, config 0, wanted index0 0 blocks, length 2286128 blocks [ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16] -------------------------------------------------------------- 1:28:02 PM #15 Text 0 File ThreadedTransferInterface.cpp, Line 984 Prepare recorder [ATAPI DVD DD 2X16X4X16] for write in CUE-sheet-DAO DAO infos: ========== MCN: "" TOCType: 0x00;

From the log it looks like a write error due to either bad media or bad communication. How many times has this happened? Have you tried other media brands? Was this a -R or a -RW disk? Internal or external burner? You should definitely use an RW disk until the problem is resolved. Steps you might want to take: 1. Uninstall all DVD related software. (Decrypter, Nero, etc.) 2. Restart the computer a couple of times. 3. Do clean reinstalls of the software. 4. See if a firmware update is available for your burner. http://cdrinfo.com/Sections/Firmware/Home.aspx
It is an internal burner and I was using a -RW disk. It did not happen at all when I burned the first DVD for another movie... it just happened with the 2nd try with a new movie. I forgot to mention I did have to shrink it down as well to get it under 4.3 Gigs.
So how many times have you tried with the -RW and gotten the same message? Have you restarted the computer in the meanwhile before attempting another burn?
Twice, and I did re-start the computer as well. I'm going to try and burn a completely different movie and see if it happens again... maybe it's just that specific movie?
