G'day, to you as well.
I have to concur with what some of the listers have said. Shotty
(cheap) media can really put the stops on your day when it comes to
burning. I know there are na-sayers out there that will try to tell it
different. But I know when I picked up a brick of dvd-r's from the local
huge conglom store they weren't worth more than colorful coasters. I
have had the best luck with Sony and from some reason those from newegg.
No, I do not work for them, just buy quite a bit from them.
Anyway, your luck may vary.
Regards,
Nathan
G'day, and thanks Dan.

I tried burning 8 DVD's last night, and had some success after
setting the write speed to '8x DVD' *twice. *it then burnt at 4 to 8
speed, average speed 5.
The first time, it did not work, but after the second try it did.
However, closing and re-opening Toast, the setting failed to stick,
and it reverted to 2x.
Regards
Santa
