Ive done both of these files atleast 6x times and wasted 3 DVD's constantly trying to burn them, but i still get this lame error. Help!
It should be a burning error. I suggest burning with Nero after converting, or try other apps. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/308223 http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/vso_convertxtodvd_guide.cfm
The problem is coming from your burner, you may run into this problem even if you use a different burning application, I suggest a firmware update your firmware http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1923 and perhaps buring at 2x using good quality media.
