DVD Burner Problem
Hi,
I'm running Vista Home Premium. My Roxio Easy Creator Suite 9 was fine except that it would not let me copy DVD audio to a CD-R. Roxio suggested that I uninstall and then re-install their software. After that, just trouble. It copies and burns CD-Rs. It copies OK DVDs to my hard drive, then writes 193 MB to a blank DVD-R, whereupon the hard drive sputters and stops, and I get a message that the drive re-initialized and the burning was unsuccessful. About 5 or 6 error code numbers are listed. Strangely, the factory-installed Toshiba Disc Creator now does the same thing. Toshiba was unhelpful, telling me to just reformat mu hard drive, and lose all my info. Roxio has been giving me several "fixes", none of which works. It is very frustrating. I have uninstalled then re-installed both the Roxio and Toshiba software for CD/DVD, I'm running McAfee Security Suite, Ad-Aware, etc..I have done a System Restore. All did not help. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Morton |

What do you mean by "DVD audio" as there is no "Audio DVD" like Audio CD. Are you talking about "DVD-Audio"? Historically Roxio POS has never uninstalled cleanly. The uninstall/reinstall remedy usually works with many other softwares, but not with cRoxio ****. Also the uninstall may have messed up files other burn softwares depend on, like the wmp 11 burn plugin. What you may try is uninstall Roxio and then delete Roxio files. And go into the registry and delete all Roxio entries. Then try reinstall or repair wmp 11. |

I finally got a clue from Roxio support after many e-mails. It seems that the Upper and Lower Filters in the registry were screwed up. I deleted and re-did those, and now I can burn DVDs again. 2) I may have been unclear re. audio tracks on DVDs. I have several DVDs of classical music, and wish to copy the music (audio) only, to a CD-R, without the picture (video). Roxio's web news had a method of how to do that, but it does not work on my computer. That started the entire problem, when Roxio told me to uninstall and re-install their Suite 9. Thanks again for your input. Morton |

I finally got a clue from Roxio support after many e-mails. It seems that the Upper and Lower Filters in the registry were screwed up. I deleted and re-did those, and now I can burn DVDs again. Still trashing the Upper/Lower Filters! Roxio has a cleaning utility called Roxizap. It blithely deletes the filters, along with entries from other burn softwares making them unworkable. (Howard Kaikow discovered this and posted it in the Roxio forum. Roxio deleted the message and I think Roxio banned him from the forum.) 2) I may have been unclear re. audio tracks on DVDs.

Roxio's web news had a method of how to do that, but it does not work on my computer. That started the entire problem, when Roxio told me to uninstall and re-install their Suite 9. I got a bit confused with your 'copy'. They usually use 'extract'. The second post in this thread gives the link on how to rip audio using DVDDecrypter. http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=167242 To convert ac3 to wav, the link uses GoldWave, but many use free BeSweet or BeSu http://besweet.notrace.dk/stable.htm http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/BeSure.html . Thanks again for your input. You are welcome. |
