Failed to start the image writing operation Error while Burning Image

I recently converted .flv files to .avi, and I want to burn them to a dvd using Roxio 9.0. I go to create the dvd, and it lets me drag and drop the .avi files, and i start to burn the disk. The dvd burns all the way through, and then the following error pops up.

I've wasted a total of 4 disks trying to figure out how to correct this problem, and I haven't seen any responses from this forum that's worked, so if anyone knows how to correct this problem, any help would be appreciated.

It sounds like you were burning a data disc, using Drag to Disc. Neither will work if you want it to play as a DVD movie.

 

Open MyDVD, bring in that .avi file, then burn it to an Image file. Open Disc Copier, bring in that .ISO (image file), and burn it to a disc.

 

BTW, never use Drag to Disc to burn anything.

Check for the latest drivers for your video card and also install the latest DirectX.

 

That problem is a hardware one

Thanks so much for your help! =] I'm not familiar with Disc Copier, where can I find it? Is it already installed with MyDVD? thanks again!

I have EMC 9. I don't know if it is included in the standalone MyDVD program.

 

At any rate, you can try to burn it directly to a DVD in MyDVD. Hopefully that will work.

Sounds like it's possibly a hardware issue. Here's one of the posts I found when searching on Burning Image
