    Hi Guys,
    Ive been using DVD Shrink and Nero to back up my DVDs for ages now, but lately ive been getting a lot of coasters first thought it was due to avirus but have cleaned them all out (hopfully) and still failed burns.Any ideas would be great.

    I'd be more willing to bet you just got a few bum disks.

    This happened to me too, although not as often - maybe every 3rd or 4th disc. I've narrowed it down to 4x burning. Whenever I try to burn something at 4x, I get a couple good ones and then every one after that fails. My solution was to drop down to 2.4x. It takes a little longer, but I get a successful burn every single time.

    Just food for thought...
