mmalves Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Try burning at 4x or 6x to see if you get them to burn. The best single-layer blanks are made by Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden. As for having more than one movie per disc you'll have to use another program to join the movies. DVD Shrink is one of them but there are many that can do it.
roughing it Posted August 12, 2009 Author Posted August 12, 2009 thank you I was burning at 2X speed. are yuo suggesting faster speed will work. I though slower is "safer" Try burning at 4x or 6x to see if you get them to burn. The best single-layer blanks are made by Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden.

spinningwheel Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I 23:44:33 Source Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: CMC MAG. AM3) (Speeds: 2x, 4x, 6x, 8x) thank you I was burning at 2X speed. are yuo suggesting faster speed will work. I though slower is "safer" As suggested by mmalves, burning at different supported speeds may enable your burner to make a disc that will verify and work. Your choice of media is absolute crap and there is nothing that we can suggest that you do with that besides maybe use it for target practice and get some Verbs or TY's.
roughing it Posted August 12, 2009 Author Posted August 12, 2009 thank you also, what are your top 5 disc types, for cd's, dvd's and dvd dl. it's ok if there are different brands for each use. besides dvd's I also burn music cd's do you think with better (different) disc, my problem goes away? how important is "verify', by that I mean once the disc is writen to, if there is a mistake, how does it get corrected. in other words if verify doesn't fly, what can be done to "repair" the disc?

mmalves Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 single-layer DVD: Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden dual-layer DVD: Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DLs CD: Taiyo Yuden The Verify process compares data on the disc against the source files/image, so if you get errors/miscompares then that was a bad burn.
