CD Burner help

Okay.  I have an external Lacie cdwriter, which is older now, but has worked in Linux before.  But for some reason I have been unable to set it up recently.  It is connected through my firewire port, but isn't recognized.  Dmesg gives me "ohci1394: fw-host0: SelfID received, but NodeID invalid (probably new bus reset occurred): 0800FFC0" and the rescan-scsi-bus.sh script tells me "No SCSI host adapters found in sysfs"
I know that before it was a scsi device, but this was a while ago (still 2.6 though), perhaps something has changed.  I'm running 2.6.10 with these modules compiled in:  "legacy /proc/scsi/ support" "SCSI disk support" "SCSI CDROM support" "SCSI generic support" "OHCI-1394 support" "SBP-2 support" "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support"
I'm using udev, "/dev" is not even compiled in. 
Hwd -e finds "104c    8019    "ohci1394"      "Texas Instruments|TSB12LV23 OHCI Compliant IEEE                                                              -1394 Controller""  But does not find any new harddrives or partitions.
I'm open to any ideas.  I've been stumped by this for a couple weeks now, and have yet to think of anything else that it could be.  Perhaps I am just unable to find it under udev, but that seems unlikely, I must be missing something...

Sounds like the issue was the CD burner, and not the hard drive.

  • Burning: Help with unwanted gaps

    Can someone please help with a problem that's only recently occured when burning CDs. When burning playlists that feature linked tracks, I have found that gaps are still being included, despite the fact that I have selected 'none' in preferences. I have checked and double-checked this, but the same thing keeps happening - unwanted gaps between tracks! Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    iTunes has a preference to set the gap between tracks to "none," which I gather you have already done. However, it does not have the ability to detect and remove silence from the beginning and end of tracks. Is that what you are hearing? If so, you may wish to try a more competent burning program, such as Nero, which can automatically remove silence.

  • Most recent version of itunes can't recognize my burner-help please

    "Disc burner or software not found" is what itunes reads when I try to burn an audio cd. My computer recognizes my burner, but the newest version of itunes can't. I'm running itunes on Windows. Any suggestions? Please help. Thanks.
    Kevin

    Kevin .... I'm with you. I have the same problem. iTunes 9.0 / Windows 7 ... how we actually talk to someone at Apple to get a fix? I got a brand new $800 windows cpu ... that is a brick when it comes to iTunes. If anybody can help us, please let us know.

  • Macbook Air Mid-2011 Loud, hot, burning, help!!

    I am about to give up and sell this thing, but I'd like to see if anyone can help me first before I make my final decision.
    I have a 2011 Macbook Air 11.6 inch. It has all the latest updates. I've installed windows 7 via Bootcamp.
    Whether in windows or Mac, the computer will get really hot and the fan would be loud. I'm not a gamer. This is regular internet browsing, reading and shopping. I just also notice now when I put the computer to sleep in Windows, the thing is burning up. I open the notebook thinking it has had plenty of rest and even though it was asleep, the bottom of the notebook is crazy hot. The power was plugged in while it was sleeping because I wanted to charge it. Did the charging have anything to do with it? I never had issues charging my dell during sleep.
    What is going on here? Should I uninstall windows 7? But like I said, this will happen on the mac side too. I'm not using parallel, I'm using boot camp which I thought was the right thing to do.
    Is this normal? Should I send my unit to Apple for repair?

    I think it's worse on the Windows side, and I'm not sure, but I thinking it's particularly worse when it's charging. If I'm surfing while the macbook is plugged into the power supply, it heats up faster than usual.
    How do you recommend checking things on Windows side? On Macbook side, activity monitor seems normal. There is nothing above 4%. In windows task manager, all cpu says 0, but for the memory column.. firefox is using about 290,000k, flasyplayer about 23,000k.
    As I'm writing you, the computer has calmed down a bit after I unplug the charging. There is something going on with the charging. Like I said in my previous post, when I put it to sleep, I came back to find it burning, probably because I was letting it charge during sleep.

  • Adobe Photoshop Version 1.0 - DVD burning help

    I am trying to burn the photos on my hard drive onto a DVD.  I am following the directions in Help and it is not working.  I am clicking on "backup", then "burn", ..., and the DVD drawer keeps popping open and is not doing anything.  It keeps asking for me to put the disk in, and when I do it pops back out again.  Help!

  • MP3 burning help needed please

    Hi,
    I'm hoping someone can help me please.
    I'm wanting to burn a mp3 cd but with the songs in separate folders so that when i play them in my car i can flick between the albums instead of having to go through all the singles one after another.
    Does anyone know of a good mp3 burner that can do this, and where to get it from too.
    All and any help in this matter is greatly appreciated
    Cheers
    Paul

    You want them in separate Album folders?
    Put the songs into the playlist.
    Sort the playlist by Album then burn it as MP3* disc.
    This will put the songs into Album folders.
    Likewise, if you sort by Artist, songs will be put into Artist/Album/ folders.
    * Note that only MP3 files will be burned to the disc. If the files are not already MP3 format, they will be skipped.
    If you burn it as a DataCD, it wil work the same except it will copy the files regardless of format. I do this as my CD player will work with both AAC & MP3 formats.

  • First time Dual Layer Burn - help?!!

    This is the 1st time I've ever attempted a DL burn.  I bought Verbatim DVD-R  DL discs because regular DVD-R always worked best for me & I thought the DL  would work the same...
    I've tried reading through the various discussions on various forums on how  to go about burning the project and now my head is spinning!!  all those sector  things & maths!!!  I've gathered that DVD+R DL are better... but I won't be  anywhere near a store that sells them till next week if that & the client  wants their discs now.  Can I can make do with what I have??
    Now for help - I'm hoping someone can give a step-by-step for "dummies" as I  don't know dot about the sectors or anything!
    Anyway, here's the setup -
    I'm using Encore 1.5 for the authoring.  Its a client's wedding disc with 3  different days ceremonies = 3 timelines.  The chapters are all set from in PPro  at the important events eg. vows, speeches etc.
    1st timeline is the biggest at 1hr 53:44:04
    The other 2 are 00:56:51:07 and 00:55:52:04.
    There is 1 menu with a play movie button from which the timelines flow one into the other  (with end actions), and then there are 3 other buttons - one to access each  timeline individually & using an 'override' command to return to the menu  & not play the preset 'end action'.
    I created a disc image and encore prompted for a transition place as it  "couldn't create automatically"
    the transition at chapter point option is greyed out and it offers me a point  (01:52:57:07) between 01:52:58:06 and 01:52:56:08.
    I say ok and it builds the image.  The disc info page says "8.52 GB used.   15.79MB free"
    After reading some stuff online, and with the suggestions that Encore wont  Burn to DVD-R DL (even though it shows the right details in the 'burn disc'  section) I downloaded ImgBurn.
    I checked the ISO for the layer break info and it showed 2 green stars - both  at LBA 2084960 ; 50/50%.
    One is VTS_02_1.VOB with N/A on all other columns, the other is VTS_02 ; PGC,  chapter & cell at 1 ; start 00:00:00:00 ; SPLIP no
    When I put in the disc and loaded the image this is the info in the  right-hand column:

    Then when I try to press burn I get the following message:
    "Optimal L1 Data Zone Start LBA: None Found (VTS_02).  This image has not  been mastered correctly for burning onto DL disc.  Cells dont meet 'Dvd-Video  spec' criteria for potential layer break position..  Continue anyway?"
    I select no because I'm afraid I'm doing something wrong & don't want to  waste discs!!
    I tried creating a dvd folder also, because I read something about it not  setting a layer break & then you can use other software to put that in &  burn - but encore gave me the exact same transition break message as for the  image.
    What do I need to do to make this project right for the layer breaks etc.???   I want to learn about the sectors & stuff but need to go slowly!!
    Thanks!!

    Problem #1 - the biggie - is using -R DL discs.
    There are 2 reasons for the problem with these discs, the main one being that it is impossible to set a layer break anywhere other than at 50% split point.
    We have tried this again & again, in many apps, and it is simply not working unless you get lucky, and with a disc that full - forget it.
    The other huge issue with -R DL is the lack of support for this in the majority of players - it's optionally supported and that means "not" in most.
    Early players will probably play Layer 0 but not Layer 1 as the format most likely did not exist when the player was made, and very few manufacturers actually update firmware - most obsolete the player instead.
    I would recommend attempting +R DL - you can set layer breaks with these, and support is wider.
    As you are using IMGburn, do *not* - under any circumstances - set the Layer Break in Encore. It's frankly unreliable.
    Output instead to a DVD Folder, and create the image using IMGburn in build mode.
    Please get back in touch if issues persist - we do a lot of DL titles, and have got most of the issues solved.

  • 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

    and then use
    b ImgBurn
    http://www.imgburn.com/ to burn the DVD from that.

  • IDVD won't burn to LaCie DVD burner - Help

    I need help on getting my iMac G5 to recognize the LaCie d2 burner I recently installed. I am using iDVD 4 and I can't seem to burn a DVD. I have created a nice slide show and it previews beautifully but when my Mac tries to burn nothing happens. My Mac has a combo drive NOT super drive. Also, what does it cost to upgrade to iDVD 5 and is it worth it? Thanks for any suggestions.

    Hi srtri,
    Did you install the driver provided by LaCie? see this LaCie's link: LaCie - External Storage: Hard Drives, CD-RW Drives, DVD-RW Drives, Tape, Monitors and choose the "DVD" product family.

  • Will not Burn HELP

    Hey I am working on a very simple SD DVD project. Simple meaning one track, one menu with one button.
    I import the DV stream file with the accompanying aiff audio track and target the one button to the track. I click burn and it just says "formatting finished" but it has not done anything. I can do the BUild/Format and it will make an MPEG folder in the destination on my hard drive with the .dv.aiff file and a PAR folder with a .m2v.par file inside.
    I am at a loss as to why it will not burn to a disc. Can it not find my disc drive?
    Using a MacBook Pro 2.4
    Final Cut Studio 1.0
    DVD Studio Pro 4.0.3
    My G5 is getting repaired or I would test to see if it is a problem with FCS 1.0 on an intel chip.

    Hi
    My G5 is getting repaired or I would test to see if it is a problem with FCS 1.0 on an intel chip.
    DVDSP 4.0.3 is not an universal binary application and will run under Rosetta in Intel machones, what can cause a lot of problems for sure !
    Hope that helps !

  • Only hear 8 mins of audio after dvd being burned. help please

    i keep trying to burn an avi file to idvd, but once its burned only the first 8 minutes of audio can be heard after that video looks fine but it becomes a silent film, i called apple and they said to go to advanced and click on delete encoded assets and that should fix the problem, but it didint. Has anyone had this problem and if so did you find a way to fix it?
    id appreciate any help!
    Thanks in advance

    There's a known issue with 12 bit audio and iDVD. But its issue is syncing when encoded. It's unlikely that's the issue but it might. That's out of my area. See these topics: Re: Audio not in sync, Re: Audio sync problem when burning to DVD and So many audio problems.
    They might have a suggestion you can try. Have you tried the disk image route yet?

  • DVD Burning Help Needed

    I have burned all our VHS home movies onto DVDs and now I'd like to make copies of the DVDs for family members but I don't want to have to do it through the tv again (takes too long). I would like to be able to copy my dvd to a dvd on my pc but I do not have a clue what I need to do this and would appreciate any help/suggestions.
    Thanks!

    I don't know about "I would like to be able to copy my dvd to a dvd on my pc," but to do it on the Mac, you take the original DVD and make a Disk Image from it using Disk Utility.
    Run Disk Utility. Insert original DVD. When it appear in the sidebar, select it. Be sure to select the volume (disk) that appears below the optical drive in the sidebar. Then from the menu bar, +File -> New -> Disk Image from "<name of disk>"+. In the +Save As+ dialog, name the disk image file and pick a place to save it. Note: The disk image file name is different from the name of the disk itself.
    It will take some time to create the disk image file from a DVD (because it is usually large). Once it completes, the disk image file will appear in the Disk Utility sidebar under the horizontal line. Select it. Eject the original DVD. Then click the Burn button in the Tool Bar. You will be prompted to insert a DVD writable disc into the optical drive. Click the Burn button to reproduce the disk image to the new disc.
    Once you have the disk image file of a DVD, you can burn it as many times as you want.
