No seek complete error

I've been building basic DVDs (several tracks, no menus, no chapeter marks) for my job and I'd say 95% of the time I have no problems at all. Then the other 5% of the time the disc ejects about halfway into the burn and there is a messae in the log that states 'the recording device reported the media error: no seek complete. (0x02, 0x00.)' When this happens, I simply close DVD Studio Pro (I'm using verson 4 by the way, but I had the same problem with 3) and re-open it and burn the disc again and all is fine. But I would like to know why this keeps happening because everytime it does happen, the disc I was burning is useless to me and I have to throw it away, which can get to be costly over a period of time. So if anyone can explain to me why the happens seemingly at random and how I can prevent it from happening, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

It can be a bad IDE cable (damaged, low quality rounded cable ...), a weak power supply or if there's another IDE device on the same channel they might not get along.
The fastest way to test it is in another computer.
Then there's the option of the mechanics of the drive wearing down, taht's also possible.

  • Server 2008 Pinter install error OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETED (error 0x900f0214)

    I downloaded the HP Universal printer driver for a LaserJet 4250dn network printer to our server running SERVER 2008 SP2.
    I dowloaded the zipped executable files for both the PCL5 and PCL6 drivers to the desktop and ran the EXE to unzip the files. When I tried to run the INSTALL.EXE file (as an ADMINISTRATOR) for BOTH drivers, the following occurs:
    Answer YES to EULA
    Select TRADITIONAL MODE (or DYNAMIC MODE - it doesn't matter - neither one works)
    Click INSTALL
    Immediately I get the error OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETED (error 0x900f0214)
    Click OK
    Click FINISH
    This happens with both the PCL5 & PCL6 driver installations.
    I activated FILE SHARING, PRINTER SHARING, and NETWORK DISCOVERY but did not solve the problem.
    I was logged in as the Domain Administrator and the Local Admin also.
    Any suggestions?

  • [SOLVED] 'ata3: EH complete' errors only when using GNOME

    Hello,
    when I use GNOME as my DE, I start to get 'ata3: EH complete' errors on dmesg. ata3 is where my hard drive is connected to. Usually one would get those messages if the hard drive was going to failure, but the hard drive seems to be OK (smartctl and programs like Palimpsest gives no error).
    It seems something related to power management.
    Any ideas? This is a WDC WD2500BEVS-22UST0 hard-drive (250GB 2,5") on an Acer 7720 laptop. The disk controller is 
    00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 82801HBM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) SATA AHCI Controller (rev 03)
    I am using the LTS kernel if that changes anything.
    Thanks!

    This is parameter -W 1 passed to hdparm via pm-tools. (/usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/harddrive)
    Nothng bad with it. Anyway revise if some parameters are too agressive for your disk, edit values in /etc/pm/power.d/harddrive (new file) based on /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/harddrive.

  • MS2026 -anvna Wait for Acquisition Complete -ERROR

    Hi Everyone,
    I wrote a labview program (LV 7.1) with instrument MS2026A VNA (Anritsu) and it was working fine.
    However the original equipmet stopped working last week and we have received a loaner (until our is fixed), same model, but does not work with my labview program.  I even try running this equipment with the sample program provided by NI:  "anvna Acquire Trace Example" and it gives me an error -please refer to attached pictures.
    The error is in the "anvna Wait for Acquisition Complete.vi."  I think it has to do with timeout (256).  I have added delays all over but nothing helps.  I used to have this same problem on the first instrument but it disappear "mysteriously."
    Could somebody point me to way to fix this issue?   Thanks very much,
    Frank

    Hi Fvalenzu,
    I have a few questions about your application. 
    Is the replacement instrument the same revision of the instrument you sent to get repaired? 
    Is the device at the same address? 
    Are you able to successfully communicate with the instrument in max using GPIB commands?
    You might want to verify the program is calling the instrument by the correct alias or address and you are calling the device correctly.  Also, I would check and see if there is a newer version of the IVI driver for your instrument. IVI drivers can be found at the link below.

  • I upgraded to yosemite and iOS 8 in order to record with quicktime. But when I select Record a new movies I immediately get an Operation Could not be completed error.

    I upgraded to yosemite and iOS 8 in order to record with quicktime. But when I select Record a new movies I immediately get an Operation Could not be completed error. When I choose record audio or screenshots, I get a little further, but as soon as I select my ipad as the source I get the same error message.

    You don't need to be a developer for this to work. I get the same error. Just one more thing on the list that make me upset more and more with Apple. Things just don't work out of the box like they used to.
    This new feature was to be included with iOS 8 and Yosemite.

  • TS1424 is any else getting a "your purchase cannot be completed error" when purchasing anything on apple tv, or iTunes, or the app store.

    I am getting a "your purchase cannot be completed error" when I try to buy something on the app store or itunes.  I sent an email to apple on saturday and no one has responded.  I haven't had a problem to date buying anything on the app store or itunes.  has any else gotten this error?

    I have the same issue to. I buy gems frequently for a game that I play, then started getting that message. Frustrating cus the item that I want to buy has a limit on it and i don't want to miss it.
    It is my money and I do as I please, and no up to Apple in limitting the amount you can spend.

    Something went wrong and your Purchase Couldnt  be completed Error Code:0xc03f4038
    I am trying to install apps from windows Store, Win 8.1u1 using Wi-Fi connectivity to a network. But this error is persistent. and I am failing to install any other apps than the built-ones!. I have tried both the Microsoft as well as local account.
    Later I formatted my system and now even with the fresh copy, I am finding the same problem.
    I would like to tell that I had already done with all the methods publish in the forums starting from the troubleshooter , "apps.diagcab" to the registry tweaks, DISM, WinUpdate Service check , proxy server auth. etc.... but all in vain...
    I think may be, its due to the IP address. I'm from "India" and our ISP has provided me an  IP, that shows from "Spain". When I see my account activity its always from Spain!.But the fact is I'm from India !. I have told this
    to my ISP but still no replies from their side ..
    So.. I hope I may find some alternative way(don't mind if its temporary but should work) or some solution to my problem here. I Need a help !!!!
