blutach Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 You got a normal, garden variety write error. Read and implement this. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Those golden rules don't mention "iffy" dvd burners, which from what I have seen all over the web, is a very significant factor, if not the most significant. Granted, firmware and quality media usually enable those problematic burners to enjoy some success, but conversely we all have seen better dvd burners break all the other rules.
