This thread is about the Memorex 20x MRX-530L v1 External. Click here to see full specs

Ok, I recently bought an external(usb) Memorex DVD -RAM 530L v1 dvd burner. The first movie I tried to burn was Eagle Eye. I put it in and used DVDFab Decrypter to remove the copyrights and DVD Shrink to make it fit on a disc. That all worked perfectly. I saved the shrunken file to a folder in My Documents. I then tried burning it using 1-Click DVD Copy Pro and everything worked great. So today I did the same thing with the movie Gladiator but as soon as I went into 1-Click DVD Copy Pro and pressed start, it says Caching Files... and everything freezes up and I have to terminate the process. I have tried using numerous softwares to burn this movie to a DVD-R disc(including DVD Santa, IMG Burn, and Nero Burning Rom.) and all the softwares freeze up at some point in the burn and I have to terminate the processes. It can\'t be the movie because it does the same thing with I am Legend! Is there something I have to do to the computer or burner to stop it from freezing. I am starting to get very frustrated! Any help or tips are appreciated. Thanks!

I can understand using DVDFab Decrypter ... maybe , I guess
... but why aren't you just using DVD43 ?
Also on the same note ...
Why are you using DVDShrink to compress ?
If you have 1ClickPRO .... you don't need to use DVDShrink ... necessarily
You are really taking the long way around
- and way over-complicating the Issue(s)

Here's the Usual .....troubleshoots ...

Let's check something .....

Go to > Start > My Computer

What do you have selected for the "Action to Perform" for 'DVD Movie" ?
This should be set as "Take no action"
OR
Set only for your DVD Player ( WinDVD/ Power DVD )
- be sure to close your 'Player' before opening 1Click

What do you have selected for the "Action to Perform" for 'Blank CD" ?
This should be set as "Take no action"

Here's some Help - with maybe ... reducing your Computer's load ....

I'd recommend that you Try using EnditALL while Copying/Burning
... to free up your resources
... You might be surprised at what's running - in the background


Open Advanced SystemCare Free > Utilities > Admin Tools > Start-Up Manager
( it's completely free and a very recommended clean-up program )


You will be presented with a listing of the Programs
- Programs that are designated to Start-Up with Windows
- and Descriptions of Each ( Click on Selection )

Any Start Up Entry - Referring to any DVD/CD Software ?
Windows Media Player ?
ITunes ?

If So = UN Check it

This only Disables the Program - from the List
- Designated to 'Start-Up' - with Windows
You would - still - be able to 'manually' start the Program(s) - when needed

Also ......
UN Check anything - Not Trustworthy
UN Check anything - Not Necessary or Not Preferred
( you may click on an Start-Up item > Select Disable - If you prefer )
>> Apply
> Reboot


or -
You could also , Go into Msconfig - and Deselect unneeded Programs
- from your 'Start Up"
This will help a lot .....
Do I really need this on my PC?
