Toast 6 just won't burn!

[kamikaze]

Hello!

I recently purchased Toast 6 and now I'm unable to burn. Allow me to explain the situation:

I was previously using Toast titanium 5.2.1. When i updated to Mac OS 10.2.6, i was unable to burn with my Firewire/USB d2 Lacie drive, which is essentially a Pioneer DVR-105. After any burning, CD or DVD, about one second into the process, it kicks out and gives a "ILLEGAL REQUEST" with a sense code of "0x21, 0x02" and says "BUFFER UNDERRUN"

Now, ive tried it with and without buffer underrun protection, but it doesnt work either way. I don't see using just 10.2 as an option, but i guess i could if i had to...the only limitation to that I could see would be that Toast 6 doesn't support pre- 10.2.6 versions of OS X.

Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks in advance...

Download the USB driver from a version of 10.2 that worked and install it, this should solve your problem. If not, just reinstall the 10.2.6 version which is also on the site, because it solves minor kernel bugs.

It could be a problem with the media. Have you change brands?

i'm having the same problem. only i don't know what buffer underrun means. sometimes i'll use one media and that problem will happen. so i use another media and usually it will (for the most part) work and other times the buffer underrun message will pop up. Now, when i say the other media will work "for the most part," I mean that it will burn up until 98 or 99% of the disc when my computer will freeze. The DVD will partially burn, but the movie will just cut out at the credits because the entire file wasn't transferred onto the disc. Usually this isn't a problem, but recently I burned a disc that wouldn't play at all. What the hell is going on with my toast?!

buffer underrun usually happens when you are exceeding the data transfer request from the drive
ie burning faster than the data can be sent to the drive.

Ive only ever seen this with external drives via something like USB. Since its not as fast as Firewire or Internal, if you go tooo high in burn speed you can get buffer underrun errors.

how is this drive connected?
What media brand are you using?
what speed are you burning at?

it's the mac ipod superdrive with 1x discs. another problem is, everytime I insert a disc, toast "unexpectedly quits." What i have to do is have to drive open, press record, and then it will ask for media so i push the dvd in and THEN it will burn. that's the only way anything will burn. maybe i have to reinstall?

Never hear of an iPod drive...... iPod is a mp3 player/HD that connects via firewire.

what type of drive is this? Internal? External?
How is it connected?

Perhaps a reinstall. or even a repair permisions/system cd repair run (norton, drive 10 etc)
