Problems when attempting to burn CD.

When I try to burn a cd I get "disc burner or software not found" as an error message.
I looked and looked to see if maybe there was a setting I could change but to no avail.
The burn drive is recognized in the device manager and it working properly.
Here is some info to whoever can help.

The last failed audio CD burn had error code 4251(0x0000109b). It happened on drive D: MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-850S on CDR media at speed 16X.

I have the exact same problem.
Been searching through this site to try and find an answer but still not come up with anything.
The wierd thing is that a couple of days ago it was working fine, and suddenly overnight it's stopped working.
The only solution i've found is that you need to have administrator rights as it says in the posts on the site below:

Noticed by the diagnostic in your post that you dont have admin rights like me so that mite be the problem. Not sure if this is the right solution though.

HT3204 When attempting to burn an audio cd, I get an error message that says-burning failed due to unknown error (4280)? It has been working fine, until today...what does this mean??

When attempting to burn a dvd to a memorex DVD Rdl 8.5GB blank disc, the program says it's not a recordable disc. The content is a 6.5GB Quick Time Conversion video.

When attempting to burn a Quick Time Conversion video to a Memorex DVD+Rdl, 8.7GB blank disk, the program reponds that the dic is not recordable. It's a new blank disk. The video is 8.29GB in size.

Hi
I see two problems
• Memorex never worked OK on Mac when doing Video-DVDs - I only use Verbatim (more organic dye in them)
• Size in Gbs - iDVD doesn't care about Gbs at all only duration. And Duration is the sum of Movie time AND MENU TIME.
I have 500Mb files that are to large to fit and 50Gb files that fit's nicely.
iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
• Professional Quality
(movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
• Best Performances
(movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
• High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
(movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
About double on DL DVDs.

When attempting to burn a 1.2GB video using Magic DVD I get Burning Prep error. Not enough free disk space...... I have tried all I know to no avail. This have just started!!

When attempting to burn a 1.2 GB video using iDVD I get a "Burning Preparation Error.. Not enough free disk space for encoding the remaing assetts" This has only justed started to happen. I have used this programme many times before in the past. Can any one help as I have tried all I know?

Yes, 44GB is sufficient. I don't think space is the problem. I don't know about iMovie but iDVD can only use the boot drive for its scratch disk.
You might be getting that error due to some damage file in the project.
Try this basic troubleshooting fix :
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch IDVD and try again.
Also run Disk Utility and verify the disk. If errors are indicated you will need to boot iknto your system install disk and repair the disk with Disk Utility (see the Utilities menu in the first window after the language selection window).

Sense Code 0X00023A02 error when attempting to burn RW

Hello. I am recieving this error when attempting to burn from to a DVD-RW or a DVD+RW. I know the first thing that is going to be mentioned is additional software such as on the "things to avoid" list when burning DVD's, however, I have all versions of Encore that have been produced, so I simply uninstalled 2.0 which was giving me the error code, and installed 1.5 and was able to burn a project with the same exact disc. I uninstalled no other software and did nothing else, besides rebooted, which I always do when I install and uninstall my applications. Therefore my thinking is that it is within Encore. It also with another RW in 2.0 states that it cannot erase the disc even if I do not have auto erase selected, and the disc was previously erased with Nero. I am actually sort of angry because I purchased a new burner to test out this error that I was recieving, and while I can indeed return the burner, I noticed others are being advised to check other software they have on their system. I have none of the software listed on the detrimental applications that may interfere with the burning process and I also now have (2) less than a year old burners along with a "not soo inexpensive" application that in essence does not work in a way I need it to. Yes, I can uninstall 2.0 and simply use 1.5, but I should not have to do this. And though I know this is not going to be answered by Adobe techs, please take note that the burn "Does complete without error simply by uninstalling 2.0 and installing 1.5 and creating the same exact project with the same source files". Therefore there is something within 2.0 causing these errors.

Neil and Jeff, thanks for the response. I am running a 965P chipset board and my PATA is connected via the JMicron controller, so my drive do not appear this way. It only shows the General, AutoPlay, Hardware and Sharing tabs. This is something that is an issue with this chipset from what I am being told. However, if this were the case(and god no man, no roxio installed on the system), shouldn't it be interfering with 1.5 burning the project also? This is why I am soo set it being 2.0 since 1.5 burned the project with no issue whatsoever. It's only in 2.0 that it is stating this error with the +RW or with the -RW it is stating that the disc cannot be erased. I understand completely what you all are saying, but I honestly do not believe this is the issue since one version of Encore will work and the other will not, unless something has changed in Encore 2.0. I understand that it was pretty much re-written(I was on the beta myself), but at that point, I never needed to use RW's, so I did not test with them, otherwise I would have reported it.
I cannot even get into the drive for recording via the Device Manager, so changing this option is not a possiblity. It is unfortunate that from what I have seen only one mfg makes a SATA dvd burner, and from what I have read, it isn't that great of one.
I am just at this point lost and wondering if I should simply return the burner I purchased and buy an external USB 2.0 unit and see if it works with that. What do you all think?

KERNEL PANIC WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BURN AUDIO CD IN ITUNES & TOAST

This computer has recently been fully updated to the latest MacOS 10.3.9
This includes the latest version of Quicktime 7 iTunes 6 and Toast 6 Titanium
Prior to that the external usb TEAC CD-RW (Amacom Baby CD-RW) was not recognised in either iTunes or Toast. After consultation with Amacom the usb cable firmware was updated and all was resolved.
Now having completed these recent updates when I attempt to burn a cd a KERNEL PANIC occurs
On seperate occasions:
In iTunes the bar indicates ‘writing audio tracks’ when it changes to ‘burning’ the kernel panic occurs
Toast indicates ‘writing cd’ and then commences burning and the kernel panic occurred
Toast also burnt one cd and gave the message ‘your cd is ready’ eject – I did this and another kernel panic occurred
I have run the the original MacOS intall disk Utilities verify and repair permissions but this problem still occurs
Power Mac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

so you realize kernel panics have specific causes. The kernels we get on our FCP machines have always been followed by graphics card meltdowns or some other horrible hardware failure.
I cannot begin to imagine why iTunes would initiate a kernel shutdown unless the optical drive is going bad. Have you tried other tasks that use the drive such as playing DVDs?
Try deleting the preferences for iTunes?

How do I correct the error; "PluginCoder error: no pligin DLLs" when attempting to burn a DVD with Premiere Elements 13

I just upgraded to PE 13 - removed PE12 prior to installing PE13 and now I cannot burn a DVD on my Win 7 Pro 64bit PC. In my first attempt at burning a DVD PE 13 did not see the DVD burner - drive "z:". I have a WD MyBook 4TB USB HD and had Security configured which created a Virtual CD on the drive. I disabled the virtual CD and rebooted. This time PE13 recognized the DVD burner but when trying to burn a DVD I received the No DLLs message and had to cancel the burn. I tried the burn again and the DVD burner was no longer recognized.
I then removed PE13 and reinstalled it - no errors during the install. Tried again and same result - no DLLs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Mark

PRE_help
For Premiere Elements user, I would make note that the presets for burn to disc cannot be customized by the user within the program.
a. The second thread that you pointed rkclarke36 to does talk about resolving this issue by changing the burn to disc frame rate from
24 fps to 30 fps. But, that was for Premiere Pro, not Premiere Elements. In Premiere Pro, can the user really customize an Adobe burn to disc
preset?
For Premiere Elements
If the burn to is to DVD disc for DVD-VIDEO, the user is
confined to two frames rate, 25 interlaced frames per second or 29.97 interlaced frames per second. But, he/she cannot change the frame rate
within the preset.
If the burn to is to DVD disc for AVCHD DVD, the user again meets different presets, but cannot change the frame rate within the preset. For Premiere Elements 13 burn to AVCHD disc, the presets are
Premiere Elements 13
H.264 1440 x 1080i NTSC Dolby
H.264 1440 x 1080i PAL Dolby
H.264 1440 x 1080p NTSC Dolby
H.264 1920 x 1080i NTSC Dolby
H.264 1920 x 1080i PAL Dolby
H.264 1920 x 1080p NTSC Dolby
Except for the two 1080p presets with frame rate of 23.976 progressive frames per second, the other presets all have a frame rate of 29.97 interlaced frames per second NTSC or 25 interlaced frames per second.
b. Mark has not yet offered the details of the Timeline content (video and/or stills) being taken to burn to DVD-VIDEO or AVCHD DVD. So, frame size as per your first mentioned link might be an avenue to pursue. I would include that with all my testing of Premiere Elements 4 to 13, I have not gotten this particular dll error
with any oversized stills.

Bug when attempting to burn multiple CD's from single playlist. Confirm?

When I attempted to burn a CD from a playlist that was too large for a single CD iTunes asked if I wished to burn it onto multiple CD's. I said yes. It did so except that the metadata was stripped from the tracks. When I tried again, separating the tracks for each CD into their own playlist the metadata was added to each CD without a hitch. So, I believe the issue is caused by having multiple CD's worth of songs in a single playlist but if someone would confirm that would be great. I would test myself but I don't have any Re-Writable CD's and don't feel like wasting another two CD's for the sake of the cause.
PS- Yes, I checked the "Include CD Text."

Yes we can confirm that.
The iTunes feature to burn a single long playlist across multiple CDs has always been problematic and unreliable.
In general, folks can save themselves a lot of frustration by breaking the big playlist into individual lists that can each fit on one CD.

Color problems when dvd is burned

it sounds strange but after my movie is exported from final cut using compressor it's god and it's good also when it's imported in DVD studio preview is ok but when i finally burn the dvd i can't undesrstand why but it changes colors risulting in a much brighter image! I've also cheked using Apple dvd player and also on my mac monitor it's much brighter!
Is this one of the usless automations apple use to introduce in its pro software?
or (i hope its me maybe i do something wrong) but i don't know where! Settings are defoult and movie is exported from FCP in a standard DVD best quality 120min
thanks !

apple monitors always give bright images. I darken my video that I know is going to TV or to be played on a PC. If you're serious about this stuff, you can buy kits to fine-tune your color output using Photoshop. If you have an NTSC monitor hooked up, play a timeline in FCP and notice the difference on your apple monitor and the tv monitor and plan accordingly. unless of course you're final destinatino is to play it on apple monitor.

Itunes authorization error when attempting to burn idvd file

The software updates should take care of it, but I got this help from the ilife team at Apple. If you encounter "your computer is not authorized to play this song" error messages when trying to burn an idvd movie, it may be because the file contains music you downloaded from itunes. This fixed everything: Go to the apple.com and go to the apple store. Go to "Account." Go to "Change 1-click settings." Make sure 1-click setting is turned on. Then go to the itunes store though the itunes page, and authorize 1-click ordering and ensure that all of your account information is correct in the itunes store.
That fixed all of my issues.
Good luck!

alright, i added new ram, so i am running 2 gigs now, tried again...failed. i get all the way to burn and a popup comes up saying burning finished errors found during the burning process, i click ok and the burning wheel is still turning and i need to force quit to get out of idvd. i might go crazy, so any help is appreciated.

Strange problem when trying to burn a playlist

I have a G5 and Itunes 6 or 6.0, whatever he current one is...anyway. I put in the songs (from my "library") into my playlist. All are, say, Aiff files, and all are playable (ie I can press the space before the song and it plays fine) and all are 44/16 stereo, and all are checked. I put in a blank CD and press the burn button and it goes for a few seconds like it's getting ready to burn...and suddenly an error message comes on that says something like: ! THERE ARE NO SONGS ON THIS PLAYLIST-PLEASE CHECK ALL SONGS...but all songs have been checked off and the songs are definitely there!...but ITUNES doesn't seem to "see" them or something. Also, sometimes (not always) it seems to burn, but then an extra step happens. At the end of the burn, the burn icon changes to a import icion that says, Import songs and I have to press THAT and THEN the cd is actually burned, that is if the computer even sees the tunes...it's very odd...Final additional weird thing. On my desktop there are now at least 2 CD icons, which both disappear when I eject the one with the title. I've even seen 3 or 4 cd icons there (at the same time) by the way. BUT Mainly I want to know why it says "there are no songs in this playlist".

What kind of CD are you burning (Audio or MP3)?
If you're burning an MP3 CD, the songs must already
be in mp3 format.
If not, iTunes will tell you that you have no songs
in the playlist.
M
I was making an audio cd. But I have since found out what the problem was. The files in my PLAYLIST I converted to aiff, since they were SDll files (I thought they were similar to AIFF, and they PLAY on Itunes...just won't burn.) When I selected the songs in the playlist and converted them...I thought all those files were converted, They were not. The converted files went into my LIBRARY, even tho I selected the ones in the playlist...and once I exchanged the SDll versions of the songs in my playlist. THEN they burned fine...but still...it's confusing..you say convert..it says it's been converted..and what they don't say is it's not been converted inside the playlist...where I had selected the songs...It just ADDED aiff versions..but only in the library...Anyway, that's what happened. But it's strange that it PLAYS SDll but won't burn them....and you'd think, logically..the ones you selected would change...but they don't. Playlists are mainly pointers to the actual files I guess...a sort of Alias..
At least it works now. But it's sad that the latest itunes does more, but also does LESS...as I used to be able to burn SDll files. Now I'll have to convert all my files to AIFF, and mp3's as I assume my ipod video won't play anything but mp3's?
