I have No answer, but I can add to the confusion.
We have DVD XCopy which allows you to burn movies on one disc rather than
them spaning more than one disc. We have the Express and Platinum editions.
(The Platinum copy we got free - but ha

Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- DVD burning problems
Hey gang,
There must be some fundamentally wrong with this burning problem I have.
Here are all the details:
I bought two spindles of That's Write DVD-R 4x for burning educational
movies. The movies are all usually 4.7 gb in size, sometimes smaller. But
the first five burn sessions only made coasters, with the following error
message at the end of the burn:
Invalid block adress
No seek complete
Could not perform end of Disc-at-once
The burn session seems to go fine up until 100% but when Nero was finishing
off, it failed to burn successfully and gave the above error message. I
thought I might have gotten a bad batch of blanks so I tried another brand,
Memorex 4x. But the same result. When trying to play these movies in my
standalone player, the movies can either not be accessed, or the video plays
back jerky or freezes, or I can not access special features or menus.
However, I have a Traxdata +RW that I can burn to without problems, and it
plays back fine. So I thought, since both That's Write and Memorex were
both -R blanks, maybe the burner didnt like them. But checking my archive, a
batch of movies from last month on Princo -R discs had no such problems.
They burned and played fine.
Then I thought maybe Nero 5.5 had developed a problem, so I upgraded to 6.0
but the same error happens.
I then simulated a few burns to see if that gave any info, but the same
error would happen, plus that the discs got data written on them, rendering
them unusable. Should data be written to blanks during Nero simulation?
What also comes to find is that the RW disc can burn at 2.4 speed and the
Princo's burned at 1x but both That's Write and Memorex are supposed to be
able to burn at 4x speed (and they do) - but they give errors. Can burning
speed be a key here? Have not tried to burn at lower speeds, tired of
producing coasters.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
