Problem burning data files with NEC ND-2500A

[frostysnowman]

I recently got a new NEC 2500A burner and I want to burn my DivX avi files to DVD. I am trying to put six 700 MB files onto one DVD.

I have been using Nero 6.3.0.0 to burn the DVD-R's. I have tried using Ritek 4X and Generic 2x DVD-R media but I have the same problem with both.

Nero seems to burn the DVD's correctly. However, I cannot copy all of the files back to the harddrive. Some of the files will copy and others will not. I either get the following error "Cannot copy. The parameter is incorrect" or it will just freeze up. I get the same error if I am using my burner to read or my LG DVD-ROM DRD8160B V1.01 read only drive.

I have tried using DVD-ROM (ISO) format and DVD-ROM (UDF/ISO) format. It makes no difference.

I wanted to try to slow down the burn processes to 1X thinking it would help but Nero will not allow me to select that speed once the media (either one) is in the drive. I cannot understand this. The media is rated for 1X.

I have tried using the 1.06 firmware and the 1.07 Beta 8 firmware. I cannot see any difference.

I don't think it is a problem with the burner because it will burn DVD's using InterVideo DVDcopy 2 with no problem at all. DVD's with this work great in both my burner and my read only drive and my standalone DVD player.

I have also tried using a program called DeepBurner (freeware) to make the DVDs with the data files but I get the exact same problems. Cannot burn at 1x and errors trying to copy the files back to the harddrive from the DVD.

I have even tried using Nero DriveSpeed to slow down the read rate of my DVD drive but this doesn't help.

Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts?

I'm having more or less the same problem.

I'm trying to burn mostly .avi files & when I come to playback on the same PC or another the disc refuses to read all the files & I get an error eventually telling me cylinder redundancy error. After a fresh re-boot I can generally copy the files say out of 20, 3 - 18. The inner & outer files become unaccesible.
I can't copy or play these files & there just lost.

I always use Infinti DVD+R disks, burning other data onto these disks no problem via Nero, I've burnt all kinds of back up software & am able to access it anytime. The problem just seems to occur with DIVx or Xvid avi files.

To burn I use Nero 6.3.1.25. I do not try to overburn & overburn isn't enabled.
In expert mode I select Make Data Disk. Add the avi files, I don't allow files to be added later & select burn.
There is no option for track at once or disc at once. I presume this make no differance then?

Under recorder options Smart Burn & DVD High Compatibility are enabled. The burn runs without any error messages, & upon completion I can play files, copy them etc. But later the files mostly at the beginning & end become unreadable?

Does anyone have any idea? Thanks.
