Nero buffer level stays at 0% when burning DVD

[alexlane]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I did exactly that and it worked perfectly. Thank you very much for your time and patience. It was about to drive me crazy that it went from working to not working.

[Chewy]

A lot of people say this isn't the problem, I disagree strongly, cause it happened to me. But things are never usually so simple.

I burned 3 or 4 DVD's fine and now the same this is happening. Here is my log. THANKS!!!!!

try a quality media.

[alexlane]

I am about to head to get Verbatim disc right now. I just hope this works. THANKS!

[Chewy]

be warned many people have trouble with this media. i suggest something like sony or verbatim as described in TGROB

as the eminent professor of dvd homicide said:

oh, reflash in safe mode and try another burn speed besides 6x if you really want to use that media

[alexlane]

Well, I bought the verbatim media earlier and they work perfectly. Thanks again for all of your help. This forum is full of info and is VERY helpful.

[LT. Columbo]

glad we could help, always buy good media
