you are using -r dual layer take em back http://www.google.co.uk/search?source=ig&a...&meta=lr%3D

To be able to burn to those ritek disc's you have to have a few different dvd writers and hope one of them likes that media, as it is not the best a man can get. Do as suggested and get MKM-001-00 and burn @2.4 unless using one of the latest samsung writers and choose 4x

Happy Birthday

Thanks all yeah "that gives me and idea" wonder who else was born on 11th feb :lol 10th feb birthdays 1976 Lance Berkman (baseballer) 1967 Laura Dern (actress) 1962 Cliff Burton (bass player) 1961 George Stephanopoulos (senior advisor) 1955 Greg Norman (Golfer) 1950 Mark Spitz (swimmer) 1946 Donovan (Leitch) (singer) 1940 Roberta Flack (singer) 1930 Robert Wagner (actor) 1927 Leontyne Price (opera star) 1922 Neva Patterson (actress)

reason I say 2 x ide lots of sata ports not purely for the amount of ports but the I/O across them My Quad semi struggles with 4 tb 32 meg cache drives across sata and opticals across IDE/ usb etc I if I could be bothered would post piccies and log / dip / stuff from when I mess on but is easier if you just get padus disc juggler. I have plenty of time to use 1 drive per disc / per image and no need for backing up dreamcast games anymore so I don't use disc juggler.

One with a keyboard and the letters S-E-A-R-C-H mainboard with 2 x 80 wire ide (some thought into where you plug devices so they do not share channel) and lots of SATA ports / quad core 6600 intel or higher with a decent PSU 650 watt min with 28 amp min on 12v line

Try a different usb port and also switch I/O to wnaspi32 If still the same research the chipset in your enclosure and buy a different enclosure with a different chipset you may also have to buy another writer, or if you have another writer try that with the enclosure you have at the minute as usb chipset mainboard > I/o > usb chipset enclosure > writer chipset are not getting on so change the combination of these eg new writer in the enc you have may cure, it is very hit and miss but your chances increase the more writers you own versus the more enclosures you have (the weak link will be the mainboard if thats constant and the occurrence of STO keeps happening)

see if they verify in another drive against the image as my optiarc's seem to have a problem when I have used l&d firmware or messed on with them. (even if you have not flashed with hacked firmware)

Have a good day ...Happy Birthday

Change your ide cable as well to another 80 wire on.

Why would it not already ?

try some 2.4x mkm-001-00 verbatim mis first

Have you since tried to verify against image using the disc you burnt to see if it again fails just after the layerbreak ? Even with verbatim media that is not the end of burning as made in India verbatim media is not as good as it should be and is hit n miss made in Singapore media is normally much much better and is considered to be the utmost in quality for dual layer recording/burning

have you tried cleaning the lens ? make sure you are using the latest firmware and try 1 @ 8x failing that get some Verbatim MKM-001-00 2.4x speed disc's and burn @ 2.4 then buy a new burner if not better.

You will have to excuse my reading skills from the log you posted where you say you used Verbatim all I can see is the word shite Actually it is my reading as you quoted someone called nightly so apologies but please post your own log

you're not using verbatim media though

You should maybe try that media in another writer if it fails send those disc's back and get 2.4x MKM-001-00 and buy another burner like a pioneer 115 116 as a backup works out cheaper than keep burning duds if you can get another writer that likes the disc's your other writer hates for some reason. Try cleaning lens on 202j and then think about returning it as faulty if you get some 2.4 MKM-001-00 and you try 2.4 and 4x and they fail. You could also try the writer on another computer.

Go for 8x

if you posted about an unsafe method to pay someone over the internet then that will be why your post was deleted or it was classed as SPAM

Post a log but hurry cos I'm off to play my 360 in a minute

No idea and no idea

Thanks for your reply,but the Panasonic bd-re 50gb i'm useing is the recommended media to use with my drive.How come quick erase works but full erase does'nt? Who recommended them ?

burn at 8x

yeah pick vts-mc.dvd inside .dvd it should look like this see below .. so open up .dvd file with notepad LayerBreak=1913760 vts-mc.iso
