Errors were found during the burning process!?!?

I finished importing a movie off of my DV Camera and clicked "share" in the iDVD '06 menu. I selected iDVD and my movie was sent into iDVD 6. After customizing a menu, and inserting a blank disc, the burning process was started. After iDVD6 has finished "processing" and "rendering" the menus and the movie, the progress bar for the action "burning your DVD" pops up. About a quarter of the way through I get a window which says the following:
Burning Finished
Errors were found during the burning process.
After clicking "Details" it says:
The recording device reported the media error: Write error. (0x0C, 0x00.)
I have tried burning a movie on all DVD types available.(DVD-R DVD+R DVD RW) Why does this problem keep occurring? Is there a problem with my superdrive?

Hello Ilzmaster,
the cause could be your burner, but it's much more likely that high burn speed is the culprit - and you can't control that in iDVD.
Try creating a disk image (File > Save as Disk image). This creates an .img file on your HDD, that can be stored for future use and gives you the option to preview your DVD on your Mac before burning to disc.
Next use Disc Utility or Toast to burn your DVD at slow speed. 4x is acceptable, 2x (... or even 1x) is better.
Use only high quality DVD-R (not DVD+R) media (e.g. Verbatim) to minimize burn errors and compatibility issues. Make sure the DVD is compatible with slow burn speed (e.g. 1x-4x)
Also: iDVD likes to have the project(s) on your startup disc with 15 - 20 GB of available disc space
hope this helps

Idvd5.01 Errors were found during the burning process (Burned Finished)

I've never had this problem before, but i'm trying to burn a dvd after all the media and dvd are ready for burning and when I click on the burn icon the following message pops up: Errors were found during the burning process. I've check to make sure nothing is hanging outside the title safe area. Any suggestion to why I'm getting this error.

Hello, Oscar,
This message can mean several things.
First, are you burning an iMovie or a slideshow or both?
Do you have chapter markers in your movie? Are they on or withing 2 seconds of any transition or at the beginning of your movie?
Does everything encode properly?
Are you able to 'save as disk image'?
Post back with some more details about your project.

"Errors were found during the burning prcess" ????

The recording device reported the illegal request: Cannot write medium – incompatible format. (0x30, 0x05.)
I got that after it does all the encoding, and then it just spits the DVD out blank, the DVD is a Maxell DVD-R 16x 4.7, and my burner is LaCie Porsche designed DVD-RW. I think it only burns 1, 2, or 4x or something though.
any ideas? I will try the disk image idea, but I'm still curious what this means.

So i made a disk image successfully. First I tried burning it with Disk Utility. Ran into a bit of a problem:
Unable to burn "disk3" - The device failed to respond properly, unable to recover or retry..
So that was a no-go. Onto Toast Titanium6.
first, before i even click burn, when it's searching for drives and i select my LaCie:
Interface Error: -50
The connection is not stable
then, after I clicked burn this pops up:
The drive reported an error:
Sense Key = ILLEGAL REQUEST
Sense Code = 0x26
INVALID FIELD IN PARAMETER LIST
I click ok, wait a second and then this:
Sense Key = ILLEGAL REQUEST
Sense Code = 0x30, 0x05
CANNOT WRITE MEDIUM - INCOMPATIBLE FORMAT
I click ok and then finally:
Couldn't set up the track for writing.
so then i tried a different BRAND of dvd-r, Memorex instead of Maxell, and vwa-la! it works... what's up with that?

What does this mean and how do I fix it: "The following warnings and errors were found during the validation of the current project: - There appears to be a broken asset in your project. Correct this problem before burning this project."

What does this mean and how do I fix it: "The following warnings and errors were found during the validation of the current project: - There appears to be a broken asset in your project. Correct this problem before burning this project."

It means that iDVD has found a problem with one of the movies added to the project. Did you edit the movie after it had been added to the project.
Create a new project and add your assets, movies, slides, etc. again and follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

"Errors found during the burning process"

Hello,
I created an iDVD project that includes:
1. 108-minute movie
2. 6-minute movie
3. 3-minute movie
4. 12-minute slide show (3 four-minute slide shows)
The project worked fine in the iDVD Preview. I then attempted to burn the DVD right from iDVD, and after 8 hours of encoding, I got the "Errors found during the burning process" message.
I've read so many posts here with a hundred different possible solutions, but what is the best place to start to try to determine what the errors are and how to fix them?
Following one suggestion, I am now creating a Disk Image first, but if errors still exist with a Disk Image, what do I do then?
I'm working on a Powerbook G4 with the iLife upgrade. Thanks for any advice.
Larry

Larry,
Here's my philosophy on iDVD troubleshooting, largley based upon my experience here at this forum, with heavy doeses of input from Ken Tidwell, Len Goff, Old Toad, F Shippey, with more recent input from SDIllini, Hui Cheng, and Beverly M.......
#0 - always use "Save as Disk Image" instead of burning when troubleshooting iDVD
#1 Try the easy usual suspect fixes first! After all if these don't work you can always try the hard fixes!
Check the list on this download:
http://dvd.kentidwell.com/iDVDUOFAQ2005.pdf
But here are easy solutions IMHO:
Get free space on the startup drive -20GB recommended
Delete the iDVD plist file com.apple.iDVD.plist
Repair Disk Permissions
Clear Cache Files (CacheOutX, TigerCacheCleaner, Onyx)
Do you have 12 bit audio - check your camcorder.......if not 16 bit you will have problems
Fix Chapter Markers-don't put one at the beginning in iMovie (iDVD will do it for you)
Chapter Markers - don't put one at the end.
Chapter Markers - don't put one within 2 secs of a transition
Delete other corrupt preference files (try using Preferential Treatment)
#2 When the easy fixes don't work, you need to divide and conquer. The suspects are your a) your project media, b)your hardware, c)your system/user preferences, d)iDVD.
A good test for a&d is to build a simple test project with other photos/movies/themes/audio and see if you can "save as disk image" the test project. The iDVD4 tutorial project is great if you've ever had iDVD4 installed on your machine. If this works it suggests that iDVD is working OK, and that something in your project is causing the hiccup.
The most common problems in projects are CMs, audio and transitions. One way that sometimes clears them up is to export to full quality DV (or to tape!) and re-import into iDVD. In slideshows, funny JPEGs can bring iDVD down. The only method here is to try different groups to find the bad actor.
OK let's assume that you can't burn (I mean "Save as Disk Image") the test project or the tutorial. This suggest that your hardware/system/iDVD is having problems and your project is probably fine. Then what?
c) Hardware: if you can make a disk image but can't burn it, or it plays badly, then try creating a data DVD - if you can't do that I'd suspect your DVD drive. Try different brands of DVD-R (and I'd stick to -R, not +R nor +RW), I like Verbatim. Next on the suspect list is RAM. iDVD is the best test for RAM known to mackind. Try pulling non-Apple supplied modules and try again.
OK, let's assume you can make data DVDs, but you can't make a good disk image, and you've tried pulling all non-Apple RAM. What next?
Try creating a new user. New users have more limited sets of fonts and all new preference files and caches, not only for iDVD but for everything, and few (if any) third party plug-ins installed.
Finally try reinstalling iDVD.......
If you've done all this, a new system install might be in order, but come here first for advice from others before going that far!

ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?

ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?
This one project I want to copy to DVD keeps saying this when I go to burn (that is after nearly 2 hrs of processing). There is nothing wrong with the movie so i don't know why i'm having such a problem burning it. i guess to start i'd need to know what this code means (I couldn't find it in iDVD help).
thanks in advance
Jeremiah

First I'd be certain that I had changed the preferences from best quality to best performance.
Did you follow the chapter rules?
*Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the start or end of the timeline.
*Make sure no chapter markers are within a transition.
*Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the end of a transition.
You may have already done this, but
Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.

Errot Found During The Burning Process

Can someone tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it?
I have 2 DVDs in front of me Both Sony DVD-R the only difference between the disks is one is 1X-4X the other is 1X-8X. I can burn the 1X-4X with no problem. The 1X-8X errors every time. The error message is:
The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)

I have been getting the same error message and have tried just about everything except replacing the drive. I have tried all kinds of blank dvd's and finally just bought the apple brand and still no luck. Which sony 1x-4x dvd's work, maybe that will be what we have to use.

I don't what's the problem. many people have this problem but they had not found the relevant thing in the log file. With this information provided please tell me what to do????

Download the clean u script for CS 4 fro the Adobe site you have to search for it.
Then try this, create a new user account and log in to this account and the try to install from there.
Since this ihe Mac forum I assume yu are on a Mac so if that fdoes not work try a safe boot and then install.
A Safe Boot is rebooting while holding down the shift key until you see the safe boot welcome screen.
then try to install.
Oops this is the illustrator forum cross platform sorry I do not know how to safe boot on the PC.

How to Resolve Error: An error as occurred during the move process.

I am trying to MOVE folders from my Desktop to an External Drive. Error "An error as occurred during the move process. Some files may not have been processed." I regularly Move Folders and I've never had problems before. Why is this happening and how do I resolve? Thanks in advance!

Nevermind. Just figured out my External Drive does not have enough space left. I'm so glad I wasted half a day trying to figure that one out!

Errors found in the burning process

I use to never have problems burning iDvd's. Now every time I try, it comes up with this message about an hour after working on the dvd: "The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)"
What does that mean and how can i avoid it??

Try using Verbatim DVD-R 4X media.
With iDVD 4 you must use DVD-R and verbatim is the best, IMPO.

DVDSP 4 Freezes up during the burning process

During different parts of the buring stage, my Powerbook just locks up...No spinning wheel or anything. I let it set for a couple hours, but it doesn't help. I have the same problem with iDVD5. I'm not sure where to start.
It does it on different projects with different media being used, some with menus, some without...just looping video. Sometimes it works and most of the time it doesn't.
HELP!!!!

One of the first thing that helps with freezes is encoding the assets outside of DVD SP using Compressor then make sure to aPac/Dolby the audio

Using compressor DVD Studio Pro 4 will only accept ac3 format in the burn process. ac3 makes a nnsense of the good sound delivered, 30% reduction in volume, auto volume levelling giving unwanted volume variations. Used to be able to burn using AIFF/WAVE,

AS Above. Edited in FCPX. Excellent sound file. Using Compressor 4 to DVD Studio 4. Wanting AIFF or WAVE sound for acurate sound.
Previously DVD Studio 4 has accepted AIFF etc and delivered sound as reuired. Now, during the burn process everything other than ac3 is declined as 'video bit rate too high', but will burn if the AIFF format is replaced with ac3 (which I presume meanss the 'video bit rate too high' is referring to the sound file)
The issue with ac3 format is the huge reduction in original volume and worse, the 'auto volume levelling' that makes a nonsense of the original soundtrack - with simply aweful unwanted variations in volume Throughout the the dvd.
I have tried everything I can think of to get around this. The 'volume gain' in compressor doesn't make any difference. Exporting just AIFF and the Video to DVD 4 doesn't make any difference, it always declines anything but the aweful sound ac3 delivers.
I have customers awaiting a musci DVD, not with thei quality I can't.
Cheers
Phil

The total video bit rate is determined by audio & video. Depending on what rate your video file was encoded at will determine how much room is left for audio. PCM(aiff/wav) audio requires a bigger piece of the pie. Video bit rate too high means your overall(video+audio) rate is going above 9Mbps which the format won't allow. The only way to use aiff would be to lower your video file's data rate. The length of your program is also a factor in all of this.
I had some problems in the past with using aiff instead ac3. Although there shouldn't be any issue I experienced playback issues on some players that couldn't be explained but were cleared up by ac3. I have been using the same specs as Dave's suggestion for almost nine years and have not had any issues with mix, quality, or levels.

IDVD 08 (v 7.0.1) ejects disk before the burn process is complete.

I've only been able to burn one disk successfully now the disk ejects before the process is completed. The iDVD screen still shows that the project is still burning. I have about 10g of hard disk space available during the burning process.

Just to add to Sue's excellent advice (Len's too), here's a few way to clear up those 10 GB's she recommended above:
You can clear video files already burned to DVD-R media, burn your iPhoto Library to DVD to clear more space , or even consider clearing languages you won't need on your system with an app like Monolingual. No problems will be created by removing unneeded language files (however it's highly recommend you avoid removing architectures on any intel mac).
Items in the /Library/Packages/ and /Library/Printers/ folders that you don't use can be deleted, and Monolingual can be run to free up more space.
