Folks, I'm literally on the verge of tears here. I just spent about $200 on new DVDs of TV programs and I can't burn any of them. I've gone through most of the threads and FAQ and can't find an answer. I may have just missed it, but I don't think so.
I'll use Facts of Life for an example, but I've had this problem with the last 6 DVDs I've tried to backup, incliding Waiting, Chumscrubber, Boston Legal, and Red Dwarf.
I use PgcEdit for all of my ripping to avoid having to go back and redo it.
I've tried using DVD Decypter for my burning, but I switched back to Nero. I know most people say not to use Nero and to use DVDD instead, but I've never had a problem with Nero and I'm more comfortable with it.
On to the problem. Everything rips. It all analyzes and encodes. Then it burns. Or it says it's burning. I wait for however long it takes without any other programs running. Eventually, I get the message that the DVD has burned and that the files are saved to my harddrive.
But when I go to check the DVD, it comes out blank every time! Every stinkin' time! I've gone through about 15 DVDs already and now have a nice stack of useless DVDs waiting to be used for Christmas decorations.
Does this sound familiar and does anyone have any suggestions?
I did upgrade to the latest Nero like someone suggested in another thread. They also suggest something about BSOY, but when I tried that, I kept getting a "page cannot be displayed error" when I tried to download.
I can post my Nero log, but I don't know if it will help since it says my burn was successful.
Can anyone help me before I give up and throw my computer through a window?
Thanks,
Mark
ps - I ask for a lot of help and never have answers for anyone, so I apologize. If anyone ever needs advice on EMT stuff or writing or Live Journal stuff, feel free to ask since that's all I know lol.
