Hi and welcome to the discussions!
Google is your friend...
I found this on a Roxio forum, but it offers the best advice I have seen anywhere about this error.
Basically, it is most likely the media or the speed you are trying to burn at. It could be a few other things, but those are the most likely culprits.

Super drive wont burn dvds

when i click the burn symbol the disc will eject and say error 34, start up disc is full. i have 80 gb on my computer and 75 are used up. i have just had a new drive put in aswell as apple store said other one was stuffed. how can i unfill the start up disc and make work? thanks for any info on this, LC.

Lydon,
Per Narya's message, I don't think you have 6gb available....but there are several ways to confirm that. Since you have used Disk Utilities let's stick with that method...when you open Disk Utility any mounted disk, such as a hard drive, will be displayed. The first line is the mfr's model, etc along with the max capacity of the drive. The second line is the name you've give the HD. If you click the name, you will see the information at the bottom of that window display, among others, the Capacity, Available, and Used. Please confirm what you have available.
In terms of freeing up space there a number things you can do. The easiest is to make sure you have emptied your trash bin(Cntrl-Click the Trash Bin and click 'Empty Trash'). See how much space is available now.
So what's the deal with your other Hard drive...you mentioned in your first post? Is it external? Details.
Re. Maintenance scripts..there are many posts on this topic...you can do via terminal or there's freeware that automates the job. OSX actually does this stuff but your computer needs to be on when the job is scheduled. Otherwise it will not run. So here are a few that allow you to schedule/run the scripts in a much easier fashion:

Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty 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, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is 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.

Premier Elements 12 Cannot burn DVD Get error message of internal software failure

Cannot butn DVD with Premier Elements 12 Get error message of internal software failure.

Great news JMD103.
There should be a big red pop-up, when one adds a Stop Marker to the end of the Timeline, saying "Do NOT do that!" That Stop Marker will almost always yield a failed Project output to DVD.
Good luck, and happy editing,

HELP - Drive Wont Burn DVDs

I've recently transferred a video tape to iMovie, and then shared it to iDVD. The first time I saved it as a disc image and then went to burn it to a DVD with Disc Utility. Each time I tried, I was instructed to insert a blank disc, and then once I did, I it changed the message to 'waiting for drive'. After about a minute, it spit the disc out with no explanation. I then tried to burn a disc directly from iDVD with the same results.
This is a procedure that I've performed countless times, with no problems. I'm using blank Verbatim 8x discs. I've inserted both audio and data discs in the drive, and it seems to be reading them, so I know the drive is spinning and reading. What might the problem be, and what can I do to correct it?

"This is a procedure that I've performed countless times, with no problems."
Using Verbatim 8x discs? I use 16x w/o any issues what-so-ever. Sometimes a simple restart and/or repairing permissions & restarting the computer cures CD/DVD drive hiccups.
Another help source (if you haven't already done so).
Go to your OS Help Menu. In the search field type dvd
Click on all the troubleshooting topics & Support Articles that pertain to your issue.
You can also do the same in Disk Utility. Open same up.
At the bottom left of the window, click on the purple button w/the "?" in the middle.
This will bring up the Help Menu.

Burned dvd gets error "not supported"

a friend gave me a dvd of an event that he recorded on his camcorder. i copied the dvd but the burned copy will not play in idvd 5 but the original will. the copy gives an error of "media not supported" or something like that. isnt it an exact copy?? do i need to try and import the video ts and audio ts files into imovie?

i copied the dvd
How did you 'copy' the DVD? iDVD isn't for copying DVDs - Disk Utility is for copying DVDs.
Unfortunately, Disk Utility doesn't seem to like to copy DVD+R discs. Toast is your best bet.

I can't burn a dvd using any method, Idvd tells me that my super drive is missing, dvd studio pro quits when i click burn and disk utility keeps spitting the disk out when i click burn and enter the disk??? how do i repair my superdrive for imac

I can't burn a dvd using any method, idvd tells me that my super drive is missing, dvd studio pro quits when i click burn and disk utility keeps spitting the disk out when I click burn and enter the disk??? how do i repair my superdrive for imac, or how do I do whatever I need to do to get it working: I have already tried using a lens cleaning cd and also restored my nvram or something i forget what it was called but i restarted my computer holding down command+optoion+p+r and still nothing???
Free solutions are the best, although if I have to pay I will, I would prefer to not have to buy an external burner if possible and already know that is an option so please don't give me that answer... thank you for any help you can give

Unless your iMac is still covered by AppleCare, get an external DVD burner.
You can get perfectly good ones from Amazon for less than $40.

Optical Drive not burning DVD's

I keep posting a similar discussion but nothing is working. I have this ASUS optical drive for burning DVDs. I was told it doesn't need to be installed because you only need to install it if it's windows. I've tried burning through the disc utility and through creating a new file and clicking burn "so and so" to a disc. After the burning is completed and I try putting it in a DVD player, it says "Unknown Disc" so I'm doing something wrong along the way.
The ASUS optical drive is Mac compatiable so that shouldn't be the problem.

Do you get this error message with all current burn attempts, or simply with your most recent project?
If not, a PRAM reset has been known to be helpful.
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Immediately press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until the computer restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Error when burning DVD RW (Error Code 0x8002006E)

Works with DVD +R, -R, CDR... but it wont burn DVD+RW for some reason
I had this problem 3 years ago when it refused to burn CDs, and I had my ODD replaced with one of these
MATSHITA DVD-R   UJ-857E:
Firmware Revision:          ZF1E
Interconnect:          ATAPI
Burn Support:          Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)
Cache:          2048 KB
Reads DVD:          Yes
CD-Write:          -R, -RW
DVD-Write:          -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
Write Strategies:          CD-TAO, CD-SAO, DVD-DAO
Media:          Insert media and refresh to show available burn speeds
So here I am again having the same problem - 'burning the disk failed because an unexpected error occured (Error Code 0x8002006E)
I tried both burning from Finder and disk utiilty. I tried quickly erasing the data on it, which was nothingnd when I tried to burn something it threw up this error - 'The disk can't be burned, because the devide failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media' (their bad grammer not mine)
So what is this a software problem or another faulty ODD?
I ran a hardware test recently and no problems were identified.

I just tried it again using a different account, same problem. I was burning DVD+Rs already today, then I went out and bought a packet of discs from tesco DVD+RW and they wont burn no matter which way I try it. I remember having this problem with Tesco CDRs 3 years ago when I sent my macbook in for repair, but I think I have used tesco discs since thren without problems. I've had trouble on two occasions reading music CDs as well + the drive is sluggish and noisy when inserting/ejecting discs.
Finding a lot of threads on this and not really much in the way of solutions. At best I've been able to ascertain that the problem is probably software related owing to the error code.
I don't know what else to try. I hope tesco take back this stack of discs that's probably got nothing wrong with them, I doubt Apple will refund me.
This computer has just turned out to be an endless source of problems and headaches.

If you don't have a SuperDrive you will not be able to burn DVDs.
Did iDVD come preinstalled on your Mac? If it did then you should have a SuperDrive and be able to burn DVDS. Check the Disk Burning section of System Information
to see what you can read and write with your optical drive:

Compare DVD-R burn quality by internal Super Drive to External DVD-R burner

Has anyone compared the video 'quality' of a DVD-R burned using the internal Super Drive
on my MacBook Pro (Windows 8.1 64 bit) to the same DVD-R burned using a standalone
Sony DVD-R Recorder / player? One would think the quality would be slightly better using
a standard external DVD-R disc burner.

I see no difference in the video quality. Although I use a different external burner than your brand. It's possible some external burners are better than the optical drives on a MacBook Pro or vice versa.
