1. What brand of DVD media you are trying to use?
2. Suggest using Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden media.

I don't understand the part where you say "copied to burn folder." What does that mean? Are you trying to burn a data DVD or a video DVD? From your description it sounds like the drive is rejecting the media. Therefore, try a different brand as firenhancer suggests.

Do not use the Finder's Burn folder when burning with Toast. You're trying to mix two separated disc burning interfaces here.

RW is a logo of DVD+RW Alliance that developed the "plus" format. It does not note a brand.
