  @rickduley Rick, do you have a spare 3.5" slot in your PC? I have a spare internal SATA burner here you can try if you like.

  @rickduley Hi Rick . . . . You must have an old copy of Bilbo's (PC) specs . . . . I do not have any copy of your system specs, I am referring to the information that is currently in your Signature as shown below:- From the log file, it looks like

  RE: cannot burn dvd+R
  I recall DVD-R was more reliable to burn successfully in consumer DVD burners. Try winding the burn speed right back to 4x. You could also try "burning" to the image recorder/ISO and then using IMGBurn to burn the ISO. This might also be of interest

  Re your comment above, I have another problem. The Sony DVD-R disk I burned, that I mentioned above, the AVCHD, doesn't play back on my home BlueRay player. I get the main menu screen with the two story lines switchable and it looks great in HD.

  @rickduley Hi Rick . . . . Blu-Ray. I thought it had gone the way of VHS . . . . Not yet, it is still quite popular, however there are fewer BD Burner and disc manufacturers. DVD's are nearly on the extinction list, the low resolution of 720 x 576
