Hi im trying to burn some random files such as pictures, mp3s, videos onto a memorex dvd -r 16x. I just realized after my 5th failure that memorex aint the best brand out there. im using Liteon SOHW-1633S with the latest firmware and Nero express 6 with the latest software. During the verification process itll freeze and if i disable verify after burn, itll burn sucessfully, but when i open it up... it is a blank disc. Any help would be appreciated thx How should i tackle this? Would a different burning program besides Nero solve this? Is it my Liteon problem? should i flash it to another firmware? Or is it just my media? I really hope i can use my memorex since i got 100 of them...

oops thats the old log file, i didnt save the new 1 when it happened. but yes wen i use 6.6.1.15 the newest update, i had same prob thx for the reply but still need help
Disc Manufacturer: CMC MA - G. AM3 not sure on these but i dont think there good? i use RITEK GO5 or TY (verbs) also your writing very close to outer edge: Last possible write address on media: 2297887 (510:38.37, 4488MB) Last address to be written: 2228527 (495:13.52, 4352MB) also you dont have much ram left! are you doing other stuff while burning? Physical memory : 511MB (523500kB) Free physical memory: 127MB (130276kB) -------------------- 6.6.1.18 version was the best version, stable
thx for the reply im gonna try using verbatim? heard its the best? Verbatim 16xDVD-R (MCC 03RG20) or Velocity 8xDVD-R (OPTODISCR008) which 1 has more chance of working on my SOHW-1633s? dont care about speed, just want it to work
i would GUESS? at Verbatim 16xDVD-R (MCC 03RG20) my verbs are: Media Information Region information N/A not a DVD-VIDEO Media code/Manufacturer ID TYG03 Format Capacity Blank Disc Free Blocks 411107328 Free Capacity 4.38GB/4.71GB Book Type DVD-R Media Type DVD-R Manufacturer Rated Speed 16.0x 22160KBps Available Write Descriptor CLV 16.0x 22160KBps Available Write Descriptor CLV 12.0x 16620KBps Available Write Descriptor CLV 8.0x 11080KBps Available Write Descriptor CLV 6.0x 8310KBps Write Strategy Speed 4.0x 5540KBps also burn half the rated speed, and dont fully load the dvdr to full capacity. also do nothing while burning, you dont have much ram! reboot pc then do project straight away, more freed up ram spare
