I have bought a Pioneer BDR-206, my first blu-ray, and have trouble getting burns to finish. I am producing files (BDMV) with DVDFab or AnyDVDHD. I have tried letting DVDFab initiate the burn with ImgBurn and doing it directly. The majority of the time I produce a coaster at about 80% complete.
System is Win7 on Core i7 and 6GB RAM.
Here's a typical log:
