I have and MPEG file that I cannot seem to get into DVD formatwith either program. All I saw in the help...

Hello. I could use some help if anybody has any suggestions I would appreciate it. I was given an older computer, a HP Pavillion that was bought new in 1999. The computer has a cd-rw that uses Adaptetic DirectCD. I just bought a container of 50 Sony 700 mg cd-r disks. The first time I used one I...

Hi all I've never seen any discs like this but I wonder - do they exist? Would it be possible to create a disc like this if you used both sides of the disc? I think some DVD-RAM discs can record on both sides. Comments please Tomo

I seldom get a good run of copying video files to DVD. I wonder if I am making a mistake along the way. I treat DVD's as I did floppies just dragging the files I want into the burning prog. But too often when the program gets to the end of the process it fails and I have wasted yet another disc! I...

Hi all, I'm doing research into a project and would like to know if the following is technically possible. Basically I need to track the CDRs that are burned with custom software but (crucially) the burned area must also be playable on a standard Hi-Fi. IOW:

I'm backing up computer files (not music/images/videos) onto CDRs. This represents research work for the last great number of years. I examined a blank CD, and saw that the multi-color reflection wavered significantly within a 1cm thick region at the rim of the CD. Is there any advantage to...

I'm running Sony CD Extreme 2.0.799 on Windows 2000. I got a buffer underrun error (I think) while burning a CD-R as Track-at-Once (TAO, not closed), even though the immediately preceding test-write was fine. There were no other things being done on the laptop at the time. I accidentally...

I made a backup (single track, single session, dics left open). Basically copied a bunch of file trees from the hard disk onto the job layout planner and burned the CD. I used cygwins diff to verify that the files on disc were the same as those on the hard drive. During some periods of the...

My TEAC DV-W58E drive no longer reads DVDs.This was supplied with my Dell computer and came with Sonic Record Now. I need to replace this drive and I'm sure I will also need new software, as the Sonic is OEM. I haven't been thrilled with the s/w and will gladly replace it also. What is the current...

Nero Vision Express 3 I use external burner as source to burn from. It use to be when I burn a avi file it would transcode and burn simutaneously the tracks on to the DVD+R burner. The light of burner would start flashing immediately as soon as I click the burn button. The process would finish...

I recently upgraded to Nero Ultra 7. I would like to be able to: 1. Burn CD's and DVD's 2. Backup to DVD 3. Re-Write to CDR media I can only seem to get two out of three. When I install Nero Ultra 7 using the typical installation, InCD 5 does not install. When I use "Add / Remove Programs" to...

When I installed and use the Nero INCD program at home, it has worked well without any problem. However when I installed INCD on the computer at my office, it didn't work well. At home, when I moved mouse on the DVD folder of Windows (XP) and clicked the mouse right button, I could see the menu...

Has anyone gotten CDBurnerXP to work with Sony CRX700E? I am using the most recent version of CDBurnerXP, ver. 3.0.116. I keep getting the following error, but only if I test-write a session on a CD-R containing a previous session: Writing Error: (3) Error occurred writing data to disc Invalid...

nearly two years ago I bought my computer new. It had a 48X CD-R drive in it. At the time in 2004, most computers were sold with 48X drives and nearly all media was available in 48X. Soon after I bought my computer there were a number of free CD-R and two for one offers for blank media. ...

Having imported the track listing and clicked Properties, the Artist and Title fields are in the wrong order, and both numbered 2! How can I reset them? Thanks in advance for any help. Stuart Reed
