sony drx-500ul and nero

[scaronelly]

i can't figure out how to get nero to recognize my sony drx-500ul. it only recognizes my internal cd-rw. is there a special driver or something that i need to download. can someone please help me because i feel like i have thrown 350 bux down the toilet - thanks

ps. im using nero 5.9.9.9 and i have tried earlier versions too

Do you have Nero Express.

[scaronelly]

yes i have that too, but that does not recognize it either - the only authoring program i have that recognizes it is recordnow

Did you select Sony DRX-500UL from the "Choose Recorder" icon at the top of Nero?

I had the same problem. Finally I installed the newest version of Nero, and it worked for me. hope it helps

In Nero Express, where you have the option to choose your recorder, your Sony DVD burner should be listed twice. 1 as a DVD and 2 as a CDR/RW, of course choose DVD if its there and then click on Video files and load your VOB's and burn your DVD.

GOOD LUCK,

yea i know about the choose recorder thing, but the problem i am talking about is the fact that it doesnt list the recorder for me to choose from - hey jilbear - what version are you now using - thanks

Do you have the retail version of Nero or the OEM version that is only supposed to work with the retail drive that it is sent with?

[scaronelly]

i just got the newest enterprise edition and it works fine - thanks for all your help

I had to download the very latest version of nero also.

BTW this drive works great.
