Try burning at a lower speed of 4X, or 2X if its available.

It could also be that the brand of DVD-R isn't compatible with your Pioneer but is compatible with the other two players obviously

**gregthurbon** · 24 Nov 2005, 07:43 AM

Thanks very much

I burnt a movie at 4x and it worked straight away. the movie also played in my dvd player. When I knew what to look for I had it set to 'max'. The dvd burner I had previously was a sony and obviously not compatible with the Pioneer dvd recorder. The LG GSA-4167B has worked fine. Thanks very much.

**LT. Columbo** · 24 Nov 2005, 07:52 AM

glad i could help

always burn at 4x or 2x if possible. you can update nero here

What is firmware?

Excuse my ignorance but what is firmware exactly. What does it do and can I stuff it up when I download the update. Thanks

**LT. Columbo** · 25 Nov 2005, 08:03 AM

firmware is sort of like a list of write strategies for the drive. updating it should provide a newer and therefore more compatible list of write strategies for your drive to support more types of media/burn speeds and create a more reliable burn.
