Possible Verbatim media failure/Toast 6.0 failure

[MerlinMacuser]

Hi, I'm new to ripping...used MTR 1.5.6 and DVD2OneX 1.3.0 and Toast 6.0.4 to make some back ups using the Verbatim "movie reel" DVD-R blanks. All went well for 4 disks.

Upgraded to MTR 2.0 and got confused using DVD2OneX and ended up making a back up of just the preview chapters...silly me. Tried to re-shrink the movie only, transferred to Toast and got an error message saying something about a media error..."the disk failed to burn"! But then Toast hung up completely and wouldn't even respond to a force quit command. Eventually I regained control of the finder and had to restart then rebuilt permissions to be safe. Second attempt with a Verbatim disk worked fine.

Tried it again yesterday...MTR2.0 to DVD2OneX, selected entire disk to copy sent processed files to Toast and got another burn failure with the Verbatim media. Toast got hung up again....force quit worked eventually. When I restarted this time the caret marker in the Dock showed as if Toast was still running.

Ran a simulation burn..all ok. Ran a real one which burned ok but I changed to a Memorex DVD-R blank.

Since I have a limited sample...only 6 attempts using Verbatim but 2 failures...I don't know what is wrong. MTR 1.5.6 worked flawlessly and I really like the new features and interface in 2.0. Could there be a need for DVD2OneX to be updated to match MTR? Is this just a fluke?

Thanks!

Burn failures are issues with Toast, your burner or the media. Not MtR or DVD2OneX.
