I am trying to back-up a couple of my 3D blu-rays.
I just bought a pack of Digistor 50GB discs (not cheap)...
I am trying to burn the ISO copy of the movie and am immediately getting the power calibration area error. This is right at the write leadin phase.
I have cleaned the burner out.
I have tried a couple different BD-DL from the spindle I just bought.
I am only trying to burn at 2X, which is the only supported speed.
I have the most current firmware for my drive, at lease that I could find.
I have also tried burning a couple other BD 3D ISO's and get the same error.
I have been able to burn a non-3D backup to a BD-25 during this time with no problems.
I am getting frustrated as this spindle of BD-DL were not cheap. I have tried the last couple in "test mode" so that I would not keep creating expensive coasters.
Are my BD drive and BD-DL's not compatible??? If so, what BD drive would be recommended as I do not want these discs to go to waste.
Below is one of the logs from my attempts to burn the 3D ISO.
