This is a "Blank" CD, wish to continue?

[Bigwig6666]

I have been desperately attempting to get DVD X-COPY to work in copying one dvd to another. It did work at one point. I recently have been using MEmorx DVD-RW's as blank media. I copied a movie to the disc, the movie didn't play in any standalone DVD player or my DVD computer drive. I went into roxio ez cd, went to erase disc, and it gave me the warning, "This is a blank disc, do you wish to erase anyway?" It wasn't a blank disc, I can see the line between the written and unwritten on the disc, why did I get this warning?

First of can you actually see any files on the disk in explorer?
If not then either the disk is indeed blank or it's a TOC problem.

Can you actually burn any files to the disk as data and not DVDvideo?

I would first try erasing the disk totally then try and burn some data to it at the lowest speed.
If that doesn't work then it could be crap disks ( I don't think memorex are quite that good).
I had this problem once with Traxdata RW. I could burn the disk, but it always showed as blank. I upgraded to Verbatim and everything was fine.

BigWig,

Try downloading the freeware IMG Tools v.1.1.1.1 from Coujo.de. This freeware has a very good RW partial erase feature which has worked for many as a fast partial erase, where you can record again. This should solve your RW erase problem.

321 Studios did report problems with Roxio and Nero, etc.. I have used the DVDXCopy Gold (includes XPress) solution. But, I mostly use the DVDShrink (different versions, sometimes (I also like 3.0 Beta 5)), IMG Tools CLASSIC v. 0.91.1 (from : Coujo.de ) and DVDDecrypter v. 3.1.9.0 for ripping/shrinking/burning dvd movies back-ups.
