I used to be able to burn dvd-r 's fine like 4 months ago..Now I tried dvd-santa and I get the error message :error trace key asc ascq asclen 3 73 3 a is this a driver problem or a virus?? because I try to burn on cucosoft avi to vcd dvd etc..it fails to burn also...I even tried a external burner and it does not work..so before I send this garbage to the shop..is there anything I can do to fix this problem??
If it does it on both burners, then assume it's not a burner problem. Try using 'Verbatim' brand disks and use ImgBurn to burn the disk. ImgBurn creates a log file (under menu item 'Help') which might give more insight.
5:31:56 CDROMControler.BurnVideoDVD: Writing the stuff to the CD/DVD disc >>> 15:31:56 CDROMControler.BurnVideoDVD.CB: Target file analyze begin 15:31:56 CDROMControler.BurnVideoDVD.CB: Target file analyze end 15:32:00 CDROMControler.BurnVideoDVD: StarBurn_CdvdBurnerGrabber_DVDVideoTrackAtOnceFromTree() failed, exception 8, status 0, text 'CStarBurn_ScsiTransportASPI::ExecuteCDB(): Command failed' 15:32:00 CDROMControler.BurnVideoDVD: EXITing with success this above is what I am getting with Cucusoft.. with dvdsanta..I get the error trace asc,ascq message.. with imgburn..I believe I am using it right Iam trying to burn write folder to disc..Im using a dvd folder that audio ts and video ts..it tells me :incompatible format
Anyways, the lesson of day..dont buy cheap dvd-r's..everything works fine on the external burner with sony dvd-r's ..the burner in the tower does not work for some reason..figure that out another day....thanks for the help everyone..
The burner in the tower should be checked for a firmware update. Run ImgBurn on that drive an see if it can locate one.
