I have burned many DVD's from ISO image files... Yesterday I tried to burn one and received the above message.  The blank DVD was read since I did receive a message that 4.3G was available but as soon as I hit the burn button the draw opened and I received the above message.  I tried this with 6 new dvd's.
Please help...

Which application are you using to burn the ISO file ?  Disc Copier or Creator Classic?  Do they both give you the same error message?

Have you been using drag-2-disc for other work lately?

Roxio Creator Basic V9.  I have always used this... The ONLY difference this time was that I used dvdfab4 to decrypt since I was unable to do so using DVD shrink or DVD Decrypter. DVDFAB4 created VOB files only so I used Roxio Basic V9 to creat a data disk and then the ISO file..  This was the only different thing I did as compared to the other times

It seems you are trying to copy commercial. copyrighted DVDs which is illegal and of course cannot be done using any Sonic/Roxio product. If this is true then you will get no help here.

However, I'm having the exact same problem and I KNOW I'm not doing anything illegal, to wit... I have a Toshiba tabletop DVD burner that has a disc compatibility issue that Toshiba has issued firmware updates for as .iso files.  But, when I go to burn off of Easy Creator basic v.9 with either a Sony or HP blank DVD-R (my computer that I hope to burn the CD from so that I can then insert into my tabletop burner is an HP) it constantly asks me to insert blank media even though it recognizes the discs.  It will even give me Disc Info.?????????  If anyone doubts that I'm trying to do something that is legal, please refer to the following forum:  http://www.videohelp.com/dvdrecorders/toshiba-rd-xs32/272.  Also, why can't I access the knowledge base?  Tried to search this problem last month and today and though I can get search results, the articles just time out.  Not too impressed with Roxio at this point.  P.S., browsed file in burn image option, didn't use drag to disc.

In your case, maybe the .iso file is for a CD disc, in which case that would be why it can't burn it to a DVD disc. Check where you got it from and see if there are any instructions in that regards.

As to the KB, they've been having server problems for the last week or so. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Hopefully they'll have that part sorted out soon.

Thanks!  Had been considering the CD issue as a possible answer.  Nice to have it possibly confirmed by somebody more sophisticated.  Part of the problem is I can't get the Toshiba to recognize any CDs, even commercial music, even though it's supposed to.  Hopefully, that's one of the things the update will correct if I can ever figure out how to get it in there.  I might try a few more brands of blank CDs.  Maybe I'll stumble on one it'll accept.  Also thanks for the heads up on the server.  I'll try and be more patient.  Appreciate it.
