Unable to Burn Disc
« on: November 29, 2009, 05:13:19 pm »
Ever since I went to 14.0.96, when I try to burn a disc, I get the error message:

Can't start the write.

I can burn erase/burn discs with other software such as CDBurnerXP. I checked the settings in MediaCenter. It points to the correct CD/DVD burner. I clicked "Redetect" to see if that would change anything and still the same problem. I rebooted.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

TIA

Pierre

If you are trying to burn from M4A or AAC Audio sources, there was a recent bug fixed that prevented these burns from working.  The build containing this fix hasn't been released yet, but I'm sure it'll be out within a few days.

I'm trying to burn plain MP3 files. I uninstalled/reinstalled with no change. I have build 111 and still no change.

It's the error message that concerns me "Can't start the write". It's like MC14 cannot control the DVD burner properly.

I had a couple of different file types.  However, that was not the issue.  I have
identified it as a bad reference path for one of the files.  I understand that
would cause a problem, but the error message was certainly not
specific enough to give a clue where to look. Once I corrected
the path, it burns fine, even with the different file types.
Back in business .. thanks  ;D
