DVD Burning Problem

Hi All

I am having a problem with burning DVDs (converted AVI files to DVD
format) - using various software like ConvertXtoDVD, DVDShrink, Nero etc.

Approximately 30% through the burn process the burn fails with one of the
following errors -

"Write error at 3056(16) - Code 06 29 00 (Unit attention, Power On or Bus
Device reset occured)"

or

"Write error at 878016 (16) - COD3 052102 (Illegal request, invalid address
for write)"

I am using a new batch of DVD+Rs, (Manufacturer ID CMC MAG E01) but the
same brand as I have used many times before successfully (I have always used
DVD+Rs with no real problems!). Now I have had a few problems with my PC
over the past few weeks so went for a complete Windows install post format,
and reinstalled all the software. The PC is sweet as a nut, but the problem
above still occured. I tried a RiDisc DVD+RW and it worked fine with
ConvertXToDVD. The problem occurs with any avi file I convert!

I used the DVD+R in my laptop to burn the same files as I thought bad media
and it worked fine. According to Nero InfoTool my DVD Writer supports all
types of writeable DVD except DVDRAM.

The DVD files on the HDD post conversion play fine too.

So whats the problem - I do think its the discs but maybe I need to buy a
new writer!

The link is the DVDs I am having trouble with

I would say your writer is the problem. I have used Maxell DVD+R (no
plug here. Cheapest for me!) & had a similar prob. My writer had gone
past it's sell by. They are cheap now anyway.
Good luck, Matty :-)
