Adobe Encore. Hardware error (Sense Code 52100).

I tried to output a dvd and received the following error:Adobe Encore. Hardware error (Sense Code 52100). Please contact the hardware manufacturerer for more information.

Hardware errors are usually two things... bad media (try a different brand of disc) or a bad drive
A workaround... and to test your media and hardware
Set your Encore DVD/BluRay output to an ISO file or to a folder on your hard drive and then use the FREE Imgburn to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
Read http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1322583 for notes on installing Imgburn WITHOUT any toolbar add-ons... Set Imgburn to use the slowest burn speed your drive and media will use... I set my burn speed to 1x and let Imgburn adjust to the actual minimum

Please Help me. I am having problems with my MATSHITA UJ-857E DVD-R burner/writer. I burned 4 cd's and then it stopped working.
I can select my songs, and then it asks for a blank disc. It starts preparing to write the disc,then it says,"
The drive reported an error: Sense Key= HARDWARE ERROR Sense Code= 0x09,0x01 TRACKING SERVO FAILURE.
Can anyone give me some advice on how to fix it or what this means because I have no idea what it is talking about or how to begin to fix the problem?

This is an error reported by the optical drive's firmware. The tracking servo is the servomechanism which guides the laser pickup along the track on the optical disc. The error means that the servo couldn't do its job within the programmed parameters. What it doesn't say is why.
You have to be very precise as to when this error occurs. If it occurs as you wrote, while it "starts preparing to write the disc", and not when it has actually began to burn, then it's likely that the drive has gone bad and needs to be replaced.
There are other possibilities, so you should check them, but they would be more likely if the error occurred after the drive began to write. OrangeMarlin has suggested two options -- try a different brand of CD or DVD, and try cleaning the lens.

There is only one option and that is to replace the drive. It is not expensive to perform the replacement yourself if you so choose.

Can't burn - Help - Error Sense Code (52100)

I have Adobe Encore DVD 1.5 which was purchased in a package called the Adobe Video Collection Professional. I want to start off by saying that I am new to the forum situation and also do not understand very much computer jargon. My operating system is Windows XP and I have a custom computer with 2 GB of RAM. I had a new DVD burner put in my computer after it was determined that the old burner was not compatible with my custom computer. The new burner is a Samsung Super-Writemaster 18x lightscribe DVD Writer and works with everything else in my computer except Adobe. I contacted Adobe about this problem and they said that there was a bug in the Adobe software package that I have, but our package is no longer under warranty. Is there something that we can acquire or do short of buying more software from Adobe to fix this problem. I have been able to burn some DVDs here and there, but normally I get coasters and it comes up with this error message - Device Error-Sense Code (5 21 00)-Logical Block Address/Out of Range-Read (DVD Error 336128). Please help.

Sense code errors are almost always caused by some piece of software interfering in the communication problem between Encore and the burner.
Please have a look at
b Things and Software to avoid when authoring for DVD-V
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bbe7ec0
A quick fix is to let Encore write a
i disc image file
and then use
b ImgBurn

Hardware error (Sense code23A00) - Now what should I do? Please advice...

Hello,
I would like to burn a new project to a DVD. Encore is giving me the following message over and over: "Encore was unable to complete the operation because of a hardware error (Sense Code 23A00). Contact the hardware manufacturer.
Please advise me what the best next step is I can take...
My version of Encore (CS3) sits on a Windows XP SP2 machine that is newly installed (last week) and still squeaky clean. I don't know who the manufacturer of the DVD-drive is. It worked fine before, and it works fine with other DVD0-burning software now (I know that doesn't mean a lot).
I use Imation DVD+RW discs. Before my clean install I had CS2 and it worked fine with these DVD's.
I have read the "Things and Software to avoid when authoring for DVD-V" document. None of the points there really seemed to matter to me (I don't have any of the identified problems, and use Nero software, which it does not reference). One point that does raise some questions is #14: "Disable the Windows XP packet writing utility": when I click on properties for the DVD-drive there is no Recording tab. Is that an indication of something that might be wrong? I have also searched these forums and read all the postings I could find on similar sounding messages.
It now seems I have three options. Which would you advise?
1. I can buy DVD's of another brandname, or not +RW. Interestingly enough, when I burn a DVD it goes through the process of acquiring all the data and checking transcoding settings, and then quits as soon as it really needs to start writing.
2. I can buy and install another DVD-burner. What brand would you advise?
3. I can tell Encore to create a DVD image ad then use Imgburn to burn said image to a DVD. Not a fan of this approach, I don't want to buy another program.
I can go any of these three roads. Perhaps there is a 4th option I have not thought of? I am kind of hoping someone will see my message and know exactly what the problem is... #1 is of course the easiest and cheapest option. Problem is none of the solutions guarantee success...
I would really appreciate any input you might be able to give me! Thanks in advance,

>...and use Nero software, which it does not reference.
The
Things and Software to avoid when authoring for DVD-V
FAQ does mention Nero:
5. InCD: This is packet writing software that comes bundled with Ahead Nero Burning Rom. This package will load a packet-writing software that will constantly talk to your CD/DVD writer, and can cause a number of issues while trying to write a disc. Disabling this software is not enough, as a portion of this package is always running after you start windows. You will need to uninstall it in Add/Remove programs, then reboot to remove it.
If your installation of Nero didn't include its packet writing part then this doesn't apply obviously.
>...when I click on properties for the DVD-drive there is no Recording tab.
Could possibly be an indication that the drive isn't properly recognized by Windows. While you are in the Properties screen, what does it display as name for the drive?

Error Message "Device Error - Sense Code (6 28 00)"

Trying to burn a project made up of MP4 video files (about 2 1/2 hrs in length) and when it reaches about 97%, I receive this message "Device Error - Sense Code (6 28 00) - Not ready to ready change, Medium" and then Premiere elements 9 procedes to burn a perfect DVD with menus and all. Any ideas?

SenseCode errors are most often caused by hardware issues with a multi-drive (burner), and can be from perhaps old firmware in the multi-drive, or connection issues on the system, between the multi-drive and the OS. I would first check for firmware updates from the multi-drive's mfgr's. Web site. Be sure to read the instructions for "flashing" the ROM with firmware updates - VERY IMPORTANT - follow those instructions to the letter!
They can also be caused by blank media issues, such as bad blank media, non-RW media, that has been used already, or RW media, that was not erased.
What brand, and type of blank media are you using?
Good luck,
Hunt

Device Error - Sense Code

I have tried to burn a DVD using Premier 2.0. Once I got a message - Device Error - Sense Code (04 91 C0) the second time I got the same message but a different Code - (04 92 05). A Third time I got an "Unknown Error" message.
After the first error, I saved it as an AVI, imported it into a new project, fixed the tail end - which had black frames on it, and am burning from that project.
I have saved the file to a folder and tried to copy it using Magic DVD Writer, and get an error message there, too.
When I play the DVD using Nero, it looks fine.
I am using an AOpen writer. Do you suppose it is the burner - or something else?
The thing is that 2 weeks ago, I burned one and it flew through. Prior to that I couldn't get 2 others to burn, and I ended up saving them to folders on an external hard drive and taking them to someone else to burn the master DVDs. The final movies are great!
Thanks,
Penny

Penny,
Usually "Sense Code" errors reflect a problem with the burner and the process.
This can be:
1.) burner is bad or improperly connected
2.) burner is "in use" by another application, like a packet-writing module from Nero or Roxio, or even the OS itself
3.) media is not the correct type, has been used or is bad
Let's check these in order.
1.) does this burner function properly in any other application? If so, we can *probably* eliminate #1
2.) do you have Nero, Roxio or does your OS have a packet-writing (drag-n-drop) application? If so, this is *probably* the cause. If not go down to the next level. Adobe authoring apps need 100% control of the burner. If you must keep the packet-writing app, then look into the free ImgBurn program to actually do your burns.
3.) what brand of media are you using and what type is it? Have you used this brand and type before? If so, could this particular disc have already been written to, even if it was an aborted burn? I use Taiyo Yuden, or Verbatim blank DVDs, and none has ever failed to burn, or to play in a client's player. Note: some brands, like Memorex might actually contain several different producer's media, marked with their name - part of a spindle can be perfect and the rest bad. Ritek used to have a good rep, but lately they have been causing as many problems as Memorex and "bargain brands." Always use the best media you can possibly afford, and burn at the slowest speed, if your burning app allows you to reduce the burn speed.
Chances are that the cause is one of the above. If you go though all three of these and are still having problems, let us know the answers to the questions posed in the solutions area.
Good luck,
Hunt

EMac optical drive: Reads but ceased writing. I get "Sense key=MEDIUM ERROR, Sense Code=0x0C, WRITE ERROR. Drive is Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-127D.

eMac optical drive: reads fine but has ceased writing. One day it's working fine, burning DVDs, then after repeated attempts stops copying and gives the following error message: "Sense key=MEDIUM ERROR, Sense Code=0x0C, WRITE ERROR". Drive is Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-127D. Is this a software issue or is the drive half dead? Get the same result with either Popcorn or Toast 10.

Are you using Roxio Toast? That error seems to be discussed a lot in the Roxio forums. Scroll down this thread:

Device Error - Sense Code(5 26 00)??

Hi everyone..
Another problem with PrE8.01. I am arriving at this error code: "Device Error - Sense Code (5 26 00) - Invalid Field in Parameter List - General" after the encoding and compiling media stage of burning to disk. I have a pioneer dvd/bluray burner (new) that has been working before (not with PrE8). Any suggestion please?
Ben

I've asked some questions and made some recommendations in your other thread so I won't repeat them here.
For your burning problem:
Check for a firmware update for your drive. As you described the machine as new it could well be out of date.
What brand of media are you trying to burn to?
For a DVD use the 'Burn to Folder' option. Does this complete?
Play the video (from step 3) in a software DVD player (VLC is good and free if you don't have one). Does this play OK?
Burn the folder to a DVD using a stand-a-lone burning tool (ImgBurn is good and free if you don't have one). Make sure you burn no higher than x4 speed. Does the burn complete? Does it play on a DVD player connected to a TV?
Post back with your answers please.
Cheers,
Neale

Contact customer support.
The knowledge base states that Adobe is aware of this issue and I have to contact support.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the program a couple of times but I had the same error message.
I have open two open web cases (#0180655783 on 1/8/09 and #0201592044 on 12/22/09). They both state: "open pending response from Adobe", but I can't get a response (although my case do note that they have been updated???).
When I contacted Adobe via phone they informed me that I could only get assistance by opening a web case. I was assured that I would get a response within 24 Hours! What a bunch of crap!
I really have to have access to my ebooks. I have quite a lot of money invested in books that I cannot access. Some of them I need
for school.
Please HELP!

well I'm guessing this isn't a question about Adobe Digital Editions 1.5.. I'm guessing your using some older version of Acrobat Reader, yes?
Please post your ebook reader version, and also do you happen to have a Palm device?

2008 Mac Pro burner failure - report "Sense Key = MEDIUM ERROR - Sense Code = 0x73, 0x03"

Problem just arose - burners working days ago - NO major changes in Mac Pro --- Attempting to burn some DVDs (data only), using the latest version of Toast v12.0 & Dragon Burn, as soon as I tell either my internal or external unit to burn, it runs a few minutes then pops up dialog box - "Sense Key = MEDIUM ERROR - Sense Code = 0x73, 0x03". Blanks are new Memorex. I've restarted Mac Pro multiple times, still no burning possible. In dire need to restore capability. Most gracious thanks for ANY immediate assistance.

There are several different incompatible media sold as writeable CDs. You MUST match the media to the abilities of your drive.
I was flummoxed by buying 8x media when my drive was a 2x drive. I needed the other type, and there was nothing helpful in the diagnostics or the packaging that helped me understand that.
EDIT: There is an interesting helpful feature buried in System Profiler ... (read the last two lines of the report):

Adobe DRM Activator error (client code 31); HTTP code 404. Fault location: 15

dear all,
a few years ago I installed and configured Adobe Digital Editions. I bought some ebooks as well. Meanwhile I have switched my computer. And today I discovered my ebooks. I clicked on them and the system tells me that I have to install ADE and to activate the computer. So I successfully downloaded ADE installed it and activeated it.
ADE immediately shows me all the books I bought years ago. Then I clicked on the books I wanted to read. A window popped up which told me that the book is no more available - due to a changed path. I found no possibility to change an existing ADE configuration.
I opened ADE and added a book I bought by opening the option to add a file and openend the ebook on its new location. The ebook was loaded, authorized and I could read it. Clever - I thought. Thats the way to clean up my library. First lets delete all the ebooks in the library with the broken location. Afterwards lets add it via the option to add ebooks. Thats what I did. I deleted all the ebooks first. Afterwards I wanted to add all the books like I already did it with the first one. But - I no more could do that!
This is what I get:
Your Adobe software could not be activated. HTTP error on Adobe DRM Activator request. Adobe DRM Activator error (client code 31); HTTP code 404. Fault location: 15
Does this mean that ADE server does no more authorize my bought ebooks after I had deleted the broken-link-ones from my library?
I hope not ! - This would be awfull - all my books would be gone !!
I hope someone could follow my problem description and hope that there is a simple solution for that.
Thanks,
D.

Adobe DRM Activator error Client Code: 31 - HTTP Code: 500

a few years ago I bought a "C++ Primer" programming book from Amazon. The book is no longer downloadable from Amazon... the DRM version has gone to some other DRM format. THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST DIGITAL DRM BOOK.
I have not been able to read it although I shelled out a whoppy $45.00 USD. Adobe Digital Edition is stupid and find it awkward to use. I found one copy of the book on my old laptop that appears to be not corrupt. I'm now trying to read it from my desktop (its a 23 inch screen. Adobe suppport SUCKS, I've been at trying to open this DRM book for several Years now. The last time ADE kept kicking back "No internet connection" when I clearly have a one.
Now I'm getting this error pasted from ADE after adding the book to my library (<---stupid term for this but it is what it is). I JUST WANT TO OPEN THE BOOK I PAID FOR. I'm suppose to be able to open this book on SIX different PCs...WTF
