Hi,
I'm having a problem burning DVDs. More often than not, I can't get my DVDs to burn complete ISOs to Sony DVD-Rs I have (I've also tried Memorex DVD+Rs). Writes fail at random points burning the sessions - but only sometimes. I've posted a log below. Is this a media problem or a DVD burner problem or what? I had updated my DVD burner's firmware, and at the time that worked - I burned 7 DVDs in a row, no problem. Then I burned 10 more the day after and only 2 worked. I need to burn these for work - please help! Thanks.
Also, if this is just me using second rate DVDs, please advise on what format and brand I should purchase. If this is a DVD drive problem, do the same. Thanks.
