Burning will stop at 94-95%

[Schupo]

Hi,


when I burn a DVD with Nero or whatever it most of the times stops at 94-95% with the message "write error". The buffer didn not went down.

I don't know what's causing this.
Yesterday I updated to the newest version of NERO.
SO this is not the fault.

Here is what I wanted to burn.
I do have vob files and such(they are working) and Nero told it's filesize is 4115 MB.

My DVD Burner is a Toshiba SD-R6012.

I'd appreciate to get help to fix that.
I already messed up about 10 DVD-R's.


Thx in advance

I don't have no clue, but maybe you're burning to fast?
Try sticking with the speed your media is designed for...
Or test with 1x, if it is still messing it up...

[Schupo]

I just burned at single speed.
Tough my DVD Burner isn't allowing more at all.

Anyone else?

what type of media are you using??? generic or branded what are they and where did you get them? and are you sure they are what they said they are

[Schupo]

Well maybe it's the media.
I asked for a better one in this thread.

Which DVD-R is better? (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?postid=322678#post322678)

If you say it's because of the media, I'll buy some other.

Do you have any funky screensavers, power management settings or scheduled events that kick in after a period of inactivity somewhere within the 45 mins to an hour mark (for a 1x write).

Don't forget to check your BIOS - some motherboards "override" the OS when it comes to APM.

Just a guess... sounds a bit wierd but you never know.

[Schupo]

Right. The idea isn't bad at all.

I set everything to at 2hours. So there isn't anything that will jump in between.

I also was working on the pc so there couldn't be any screensaver issues.


Maybe it's the media itself.


@Toona I don't know weather they are generic or branded How can I see?

I do have these:
DVD-R 4,7 GB (G) DataTrack :eek:

cheap media......
burn dvds under 3 gig and they work
expensive media
burn dvd upto 4.3 gig and they work

get the idea!

I had a similar problem with a couple of Datawrite dvd-r. They were at the last 5 pieces of a 100 shrink pack.

On the bottom they had visual defects in plastic. Imagine that u twist a transparent plastic ruler. At a certain point the clear plastic would produce some opaque veins. They were just like that.

Maybe because they were at the bottom and suffered all the weight.

I burn DVD's all the way to the max capacity 4.3gigs or so all the time without incident. I use Ritek G03's. They're not expensive...
I used to stick to less than 3 gigs back when I used crap like princo or dvd-pro.

Anyway I'd suggest picking up a Pioner or Apple disk and seeing if ti works...if it does then your media is the problem. Next try Ritek G03 or G04 if you can find them.
