Error 4280 while burning cd

When I try to burn a cd, I get the "unkown error" 4280. This error came up after installing itunes 7.6.2.9. With Nero I am able to burn a cd on this computer.
I have seen a lot of messages reporting this error 4280 - but I could not find any solution for me

I was also getting this error message and could not burn to a CD. I finally clicked on the "Safely Remove hardware icon" in the lower right hand corner of the screen in Windows XP. After clicking on the stop and removing the ipod cable, I was able to burn to the CD. Most of the time, I just unplug the usb connector without using the "safely remove hardware" icon. Not sure if this will work for others but worth a try.

I got an error message while burning a CD in iTunes - "the attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error." What does this mean and how do I fix it?

The disk you are using probably has a defect, not uncommon on consumer grade disks. Try another disk or better yet another disk from a different manufacturer or at least a different batch.

An error occurred while burning the disc.

I tried to burn some stuff onto a DVD today with my PowerBook. Here's the info on the burner:
MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-845E:
Manufacturer: MATSHITA

I bought some DVD's on sale at Radio Shack, and when I tried to burn a movie and a few photos onto a disc, the progress bar showed it starting to burn, then it stopped and I got this message:
"An error occurred while burning the disc. This disc cannot be used."
A little research here at the Apple forum brought me to this site:
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
And after downloading a little program called DVD Media Inspector, I was able to classify the DVD's I had bought as:
"4TH CLASS MEDIA:
Pathetic garbage media, landfill material, about 0-50% success rate...."
OK, off to Mega Lo Mart, where I bought some nice, expensive Maxell DVD's.
Media Inspector doesn't see my fancy new DVD's. When I try to burn stuff using the Finder, I get the same result as before.
Getting desperate at that point, I located and downloaded updated firmware for my model of Matshita superdrive. I'm not sure what firmware is, and there was a free range one and a standard one, so I went for the standard one. There were dire warnings in the readme file about "flashing" a superdrive being on the same risk level as open heart surgery. I flashed my superdrive. (You can say that here, and it's not dirty.)
I also tried burning using iDVD, and after much preparation, it started to burn, then spit out the DVD. I tried three of the landfill DVD's and two of the Maxell ones. I'm out of things to try. Any ideas?
I have never tried burning DVD's before. Am I doing something wrong?

I tried again using iDVD's One-Step DVD making feature. It will let you make a one step from a movie file, and I had a .dv version of the movie I want to burn.
It encoded video for a while, encoded audio for a little while, then started to burn. The superdrive made some noises, then the DVD was ejected and I got an error message saying:
"Burning Finished
Errors were found during the burning process"
I hit OK (though it really wasn't OK) and got another error message box. This one said:
"Multiplexer error
(some message about multiplexing problem)"
The message didn't make sense to me, and I was unable to remember it. What's a multiplexer? I would have guessed an avid movie-goer, but somehow I think that is not it.

Error 4280-- wont burn CDs

I've been trying to burn CDs since getting the new iTunes 7 and after i press burn CD, it will look like it's working until it starts to burn the first song on the playlist, and it simply says "Canceling Burn Disk this may take a minute or two" and then it spits the CD out and says "unknown error 4280". Any idea what that means or how I can fix it??

Error 4850 while burning, after upgrading to 10.1.2.17

Hi guys I'm suddenly encountering error 4850 while trying to burn either an audio or mp3 CD. Burning a data cd seems to work fine. This just started happening I'm assuming because I upgraded to itunes 10.1.2.17, I've burned hundreds of CDs with no problem before the upgrade (altho I've had this problem once before after an upgrade about a year ago)
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Error message while burning CD

Hi all. I'm getting an error 4280 every time I try to burn a CD on Itunes. I think it may have something to do with a recent automatic update my Windows XP did. I googled this error but the solutions I find either don't apply to my computer or simply don't make sense to me.
Questions:
- What does this error mean?
- How does one fix it so I can burn my CD?
I am running XP Pro on a Toshiba Satellite laptop which is ~5 years old. My version of Itunes is v8.
Thanks,
eli

Try burning your CD at a lower speed -- not at the maximum. Even if you have to go to a much lower speed it should only take a bit longer to burn. I have had the same difficulty in the past and had success in lowering the speed. Also maybe if you reduce the size of the photos -- not to the smallest but to the medium size, that too may help. Just try one of these options to start with and see if it makes any difference.
Hope this makes sense.

I get the same thing. I was coming on here to see if there was any answers. I usually get error code 4280 but sometimes (if I try with the burn speed slowed down to 2x or 4x) get code 4000. I never ever had trouble before now it seems to be all the time. I can try 5 times to burn the same thing with different discs and it might work the fifth time, it might not.
It is beginning to seriously do my head in!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thnaks all.

Error -8785 while burning disc 2 of 3 during Back Up to Disc...

I regularly back up my iTunes library to DVD media-i hadn't done it in a few months and when I went to do so today using regular HP DVD+R discs that I've used before for this, the first disc burned fine (I needed three discs total, per iTunes). Discs 2 and 3 immediately failed with a -8785 error code. I restarted my MacBook Pro and used different discs, and keep getting the same thing. It looks like iTunes is fine with the first disc I burned as backup since it now says only two discs are required for the incremental backup. But I can't backup my iTunes library to disc (apart from, say, data discs). Disc 1 in this series, incidentally, was disc 30 for my collection, so I'd like to keep it going. I'm using iTunes 10, but I don't think that's the issue, since the first disc burned fine. Suggestions? Thanks.

I had the same, Error -8785, error while writing an MP3 CD. I found this post during a Google Search: http://lists.apple.com/archives/quicktime-api/2007/Apr/msg00110.html . Some of the names on the tracks, and the comments were very long, so I shortened them. Then it worked.
I hope this helps.

Error 4251 while burning to a disc

I keep getting an "Attempt to burn disc failed error 4251" message while trying to burn playlists to a disc. I've upgraded to the newest version of iTunes and tried using the lowest speed setting and the highest maximum to no avail. Any suggestions?

Not sure I can help very much, but I have had similar problems with large projects. I think (but I'm not sure) that iDVD does not do a very good job of estimating the size of the project until it starts to render/encode. So your project might be too big even for a dual-layer DVD. Can you reduce the size/length of the movie at all. And/or reduce the size of any iDVD slideshows you might also have in the iDVD project.
One small trick (I think this is true, but again I'm not 100% sure) is to reduce the size of the audio. If you use songs from iTunes, what format are they? I keep my songs in Apple Lossless which makes the files large. When I compress them to say AAC 128 or 160 in iTunes, and then use those smaller file versions in my iMovie project or slideshows, it reduces the size of the iDVD project.

Unknown error 2130906112 while burning DVD in Premiere Elements

Hi am trying to burn a DVD using Premiere Elements 3.0. My computer will go through the lengthy process of attempting to burn the CD. At the very end, the drive pops the DVD out and I get a message that states: Unknown error 2130906112. I have burned successfully in the past, but am unable to now. I have tried to do this about 7 times with this specific project and have had no success. I have used two different types of DVD+R (Memorex and Verbatim). My project is approximately 56 minutes long. Any help and/or advice is greatly appreciated!!!!

Great news!
I just can't see which is highlighted while doing so. I think it has to do with the template I chose in Premiere Elements while designing the movie.
The lack of the Sub-picture Highlights (the official name for the indicators of which Button one has navigated to), could be caused by several things:
1.) the inability of the PS3 to adequately display them. Like I said earlier, most people, that I know, use the PS3's for BD playing. The specs. are different for those, as opposed to the DVD-specs. I just do not know about the PS3.
2.) could be a problem with the Template. Which one did you choose? I'll be glad to check it out (if PrE4 has it) and report any issues that I find. Did you modify this Template, say in Photoshop/PSElements? Could be that one of those modifications turned ON all Sub-picture Highlights.
3.) could be a problem with the "authoring" phase of the Project. This is after the editing, and is where one assembles the Assets (Menus, etc.) and does the navigation. As PrE is semi-automatic, it does most of this for the user, with little intervention. Still, there could be ways to accidently mess something up here, though it's highly unlikely. Now, in my authoring program, all is done by hand, so I have hundreds of opportunities to make a mess of a Project - PrE shields the user from most of these.
Now, to your questions:
Can I use the Img software for all burning projects including CDs?
Yes. You can do most forms of burning, including CD's (Audio, Video or Data), so long as you have the right types of files.
What is the best way to organize and store my video files?
This is the $64,000 question. So much depends on what one has, how they are likely to need to access them and what equipment they either own, or wish to purchase. I'll give you my scheme, though it might be overkill for you. Still, you can get an idea and are free to adapt any part of it for your needs.
I work with several types of Assets: original (or stock) still images, Captured (stock, or client-supplied) motion, Audio (original, stock or extracted from the previously mentioned motion Assets, Menus (Templates and original creations), Titles (same) and then my Projects.
I keep the originals on both a NAS (Networked Attached Storage) drive that is networked to all of my computers, and also on external storage HDD's. I also back up to DVD-Data discs. For Captured, original Video, I also store all tapes and do NOT overwrite/reuse any. I only work with Copies of any of the Assets (the Captures are probably the exception, as I have the tapes, should I need to re-Capture).
I use several media browsers to organize my Assets. I then locate those necessary for a Project, and create a folder structure for that Project. Copies of the Assets are placed in that folder structure, beneath the Project name. Again - these are Copies, in case something happens.
Depending on what I need to do, the Scratch Disks (set with Edit>Preferences) are usually kept within the Project's folder structure too. Same for Exports. As I use a different program to author DVD's (Adobe Encore), I create my Encore Project within this structure too. The files that I Export from PrPro (my NLE of choice), are the ones that I then Import into Encore for authoring the Project.
When done, I Archive the editing Project and also the Encore Project, to another external drive. I will always make one additional copy of my output DVD as a backup, as I can use ImgBurn, or another utility, to Copy DVD.
After all of this, I can then safely Delete my entire Project folder from the system. Remember, it contains no origianl Assets (other than Captured materail), as I have everything on the NAS, plus an external, plus the backup DVD-Data disc. Right now, I have about 30 1 - 2TB external HDD's that I use. Some are for backup, and some are to allow me to move my Projects between my laptop or my workstation.
Hope that this helps. As I said, it's probably overkill, but much of the work that I do is for clients. If they come back with a change, or a problem, I want to be able to help them immediately.
Good luck and good questions,
Hunt
