DVD Burning Issue
Two days ago, out of the blue, my dvd drive started taking almost two hours to make and burn a data dvd. Where I could once start to make a dvd and count on it being 30 percent through the compare pass, the same time now only gets me to 15 percent in the write pass. The discs haven't changed. Is there a way to know if it's the drive? Thanks. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: DVD Burning Issue
what i would do is try different dvd media, because even with the same batch or brand of media there can be changes or bad discs. if you try different media and it works fine it could be a media problem. but it could also be the drive is starting to go bad. when drives start to go bad they can burn slower then before. les - Original Message - From: Gary Petraccaro garyp...@verizon.net To: PC audio discussion list. pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, November 12, 2012 12:11 AM Subject: DVD Burning Issue Two days ago, out of the blue, my dvd drive started taking almost two hours to make and burn a data dvd.

Re: DVD Burning Issue
How old is your burner? How expensive are burners in your part of the world? When burners of DVD came on the market here in Australia in the late 90s they were $5000. Now a burner can be had for about $40. so if you can change the thing yourself then a new burner might be a proposition.

Re: Burning issue
I hate to mention this, since I'm sure you've already checked this, but are you sure you're selecting the right drive? I know on my system, between the card reader, the printer and so on, I have half a dozen removable drives listed. I sometimes just have to go through them one at a time to find out which one has the card or removable drive in it that I'm looking for. -- Christopher chalt...@gmail.com On 10/9/2010 8:58 PM, Don Lorah wrote: Whenever I open the rw drive to paste in files, I get the message: insert disc, and when I insert a disc I get the same message.

RE: Burning issue
Are you sure the disk you're inserting doesn't already have something on it? When I use a disk that turned into a coaster by mistake, I get a similar error. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Don Lorah Sent: Saturday, October 09, 2010 8:58 PM To: pc-audio-requ...@pc-audio.org; audio, pc Subject: Burning issue Whenever I open the rw drive to paste in files, I get the message: insert disc, and when I insert a disc I get the same message.

Re: Burning issue
Well, if it is anything like mine was, the thing finally died on me, making it necessary to go buy another drive. I replaced it with a USB cd/cvd drive, and now everything works like a charm.

Winamp CD Burning Issue
Okay, I've had an error that's been popping up lately, just all of a sudden the last few days, and I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm running WinAmp 5.32. The error is pasted below: Nullsoft Burner Error Error during Audio CD burning process. Library error: The SCSI command sent by the function returned a check condition. Drive error:Power Calibration Area Is Full I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Winamp Pro, and it hasn't made a difference. I looked for info in the Troubleshooting section of Winamp to no avail...I also tried joining the Winamp Forum, but they have one of those visual verification things, and unlike many sites, don't appear to have a link for blind and visually impaired users who can't see the image to be able to get help...So, so much for that. Any help on how to correct/get around this problem, or what it actually means, would be appreciated. Thanks. Are you interested in a more healthy, environmentally friendly home?
