The software i use,Nero burning tells me the dvd has burn successfully but when i put the dvd to play in the computer or a dvd player it is not recognize,i used to be able to burn dvds successfully and have them play successfully on the computer and dvd player using Nero,don't know but now when i burn a dvd i get the message saying burning has been completed successfully but it is not recognize buy the computer nor dvd. and by the way im using stapes dvd-rw and dvd-r disc and my dvd burner is a pacfic digital extreme 16x double layer 2.0 dvd drive
i did a system resore thinking it might a might been spyware causing this problem but yet i still have the same problem
Assuming that the burner's firmware is up to date and you haven't changed media brands: Select Nero Tools > Nero Info Tool > Configuration and verify that 'DMA' is 'On'. Then select the tool, 'Nero CD-DVD Speed' and run 'Scan disc' on one of the burned DVD's. If it picks up errors it might indicate that you are burning at too high a speed. The burn log will tell you what speed you are burning at, but 4x is is a safe speed.
actually i did use another brand dvd disc at one point ,sony, then after that everytime i got either burned failed or i got burned successful but when i put it in the computer or play it in the dvd player it doesnt work even after reverting back to the staples dvd disc,the only reason i even used the sony dvd is cause its rw(rewritable), the staples arent, dvd-r.i even tried to erase a movie but i couldnt,got a message saying erase failed.when i have erased movies on a disc before without any problems, is it that bad to use multiple brand dvds to make movies,itl screw up your burner if i knew i woulda just sticked with the staples dvd disc . i burned a movie successfully(using nti cd dvd maker) at a freinds house which actually worked on the dvd and computer that same dvd i was getting burn succfessful on my my computer but did not actually work on the dvd nor computer now i come to the conclusion its probally something with my dvd drive or software/drivers cause i just did a system restore and i im still having the same problems. i hope one of you guys can help me out
Did you use Nero Tools to scan one of the disks that were burned on your computer to see if there were any media errors?
just did it,the dvd that was supposley completed successfully,is a blank dvd,thats what nero info tools is telling me

I dont know if this would help but my computer has always recognized my dvd burner as a benq drive it is a pacfic digital dvd burner,its the pacific digital external xtreme 16x double layer burner, this is the burner that i have heres the link http://www.pacificdigital.com/products.asp?gpcid=5&cid=31&scid=117&ItemID=790
Are you selecting the Hard Drive to write the files??Why not the burner? I don't see any reference to your burner???
That isn't what your log is saying. This is an example of what it should say: The GSA-H22N is my burner. Your log says Target: Hard disk folder.
i had an idea,what i did was unstall the driver for the dvd burner then i reinstalled since then ive burn 2 movies successfuly,the ply on the dvd player and computer
