i'm using a new hp external dvd writer...i recently switched my dvd writing software to ULead DVD Workshop... everything works great...until i reach the 100% burned mark, at which time, the DVD ejects and i get the error:

"Generic Error from CD/DVD recording software. Please make sure the drive is ready and try again. Error: TAO-2048-SPTI-00-02-05-72-03"

i've tried making 10 different discs with different video and menu styles...but all errored out...any ideas? I'm going bonkers with this! thanks ahead of time guys, i could really use the help!

update: re-installed software, and it still errors the same way...
anyone with some ideas?

It may be your media. I had the same exact problem using the dvd-rw disc provided with my dvd burner. When I switched to verbatim dvd-r discs, I no longer had that problem. All of my burns were fine. Try switching media.

how long is your film ? 4.38 gig is the max

[bigorangekitty]

the sizes of the projects i haven't deleted that will NOT BURN are
428mb
1.8gb
3.4gb
4.15gb
also...i tried to use ulead to make an iso file to burn with nero but for some reason, even though i chose my external dvd burner and NOT by regular cd burner, nero asks me to insert a CDR/CDRW? and if i try to make an nero img file, it tells me that the nero img file can NOT be more than 2gb?

help anyone?

i have been thinking about it and cant really give you a solution ..

other than try the burner in another machine (bad burner?)

or try another burner in your machine (bad "your machine"?)
