Okay, let's get straight to my problem. I am using a Dell Inspiron E1505 (Windows Vista) with a Dual Layer DVD Burner. Using my Nero Vision 5 (Which came with Nero 8) I am trying to Burn a .avi movie. I can get through all of the steps fine, up to the actual burning. It tells me it is using an Image Recorder and not my DVD burner. How can I get Nero Vision to reconize my Burner, even though I am currently using the latest version of Nero?
hmm, you done any burning before and used nero before ok? could be a setting in nero... nero installs an image drive i use it for iso playing... maybe uninstall this part of nero. post an error log please...
I know it sounds stupid, but what is an error log? and no, I have not burned with nero before. I was told it's the best source for burning. I also had this problem with Roxio, that is why I switched to Nero
I would beg to differ. ImgBurn is a better burn engine, IMHO. Roxio and Nero can conflict with each other. Uninstall Roxio if you haven't already.
I uninstalled Roxio, and Nero still tells me it is using the Image Recorder. How do I get Nero to use my Dual Layer DVD burner? Or, rather, to reconize it?
Are you trying to burn that AVI as is, an AVI, or are you trying to make a DVD-Video? You don't have the option to select your burner as the destination from a drop-down menu?
I have a .Avi video selected. And I am in the DVD video format for burning. my burner is not selectable from the drop down menu, any ideas?
It's an Internal Burner. All I know is that it's a Dual Layer Burner. How do I find the name? Maybe I should consider an external Burner, I mean, this is a lot of hassel for a couple of DVDs. Would an external Burner work as well as an internal one?
need a nero log file also give dvd flick a try, load file / set options re: PAL or NTSC / click create, basically got a codec pack installed? but need to look at a log file!
you may need xvid codec too but your drive not showing is something else... you may have a ide driver problem and dma issue.. also need to use roxiozap tool get rid of the conflicting driver, uninstalling isnt good enough.
