| Just upgraded to dvdfab5, dvds dont burn now Hey guys, I just updated to dvdfab5 and now I keep burning bad dvds. I tried burning weeds season 3 and welcome home roscoe jenkins and when I try to play them one dvd player says error and will then eject some of them, the other says data disc. I do not know if I have some kind of settings wrong or what, but I am going to try it in dvdfab4 and see if it makes a difference. If anyone knows how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advace! |

| Re: Just upgraded to dvdfab5, dvds dont burn now Check in Common Settings->Write. As I recall, sometimes the settings were not carried forward from v4 to v5. You are probably trying to burn at "Recommended" speed which is always too fast for most drives and media; double check the booktype setting also. If all this is OK, post a burn log to give us more info. |

| Re: Just upgraded to dvdfab5, dvds dont burn now Hi again, the booktype and record settings are the same in dvdfab4 and dvdfab5. I was copying to dvd-r media. When I switched to dvd+r it now seems to have copied correctly. The thing that is confusing me is that when I used dvd-r media in dvdfab4 I never had a problem burning on this type of media. Any ideas? Thanks for the help! |

| Re: Just upgraded to dvdfab5, dvds dont burn now One item to take a look at: Be certain you have selected SAO and not packet writing Common Settings > DVD > Write > Write Type...SAO Occasionally, packet writing is problematic when burning to -R media, but most ppl. do not have a problem. There's no downside to selecting SAO...

| Re: Just upgraded to dvdfab5, dvds dont burn now Sony isn't one of the best brands of media because they don't make their own as they farm it out to the cheapest manufacture, If I was you I wouldn't use anything except TY's or Verbatim as they are two proven brands and will last much longer than other brands, As Mr. SJ would say just my two cents worth
