["Power Calibration Error" on DL]

Can you copy and paste the info from the right hand pane please?

==========================

 

Below is the info from the 4x burn that had one "Potential 'WaitImmediateIO' Deferred Error - (0/2) - Power Calibration Area Error", but competed OK.

 

Note that it plays OK in my PC but my home DVD player does intermittently have some trouble initially finding the D/L disc -- it has to hunt for a while, sometimes it finds it, other times it doesn't. BTW, the image does burn and play fine on a +R single layer:

Hope this helps.

["Power Calibration Error" on DL]

I am trying to burn some personal video I mastered myself (with Tsunami DVD Author Pro). I have used RitekD01 (crap) and Verbatim MKM001 +DL, and I almost always get a "Power Calibration Area error" either at the layer break or at the end of the burn. I tried 2.4x and 4x burn speed, and 4x usually went through. But either way, the final burned disc shows as empty on the same drive on the PC, and show as "no disc" on standalone DVD player. Can anyone help me?

 

I used the "Write" option for the above. Later I found the "Build" option, and selected 1 of the 2 layer break points (both are average star), and the burn still gives an error at the end (forgot what it was) but when I retried it went through, and the disc play fine.

 

My burner is a Liteon 165H6S

 

I am experiencing exactly the same problem:

 

Lite-On 165H6S, latest firmware (HS0E)

Verbatim MKM001 +DL

"Potential 'WaitImmediateIO' Deferred Error - (0/2) - Power Calibration Area Error"

The problem only occurs on DL writes

 

4x - 1 error but completes OK

 

2.4x - multiple Power Calibration Area errors, then

Close Track Failed! - Reason: Power Calibration Area Error

Finalising Disc...

Finalise Disc Failed! - Reason: Session Fixation Error - Incomplete Track in Session

<coaster>

 

I've owned several Lite-Ons. This is the newest and the first one I've ever had any problems with. Could this be a problem inherent with the Lite-On 165H6S? Or something else?

 

Any ideas?
