Project Burning

[Trebor99]

I am new to Roxio and have built my first project with menus. Looks really good, just what i wanted. But when i select from the File menu, "Burn project to disc", and in the "burn project window", I check "Burn to disc", the "Burn" button is not enabled at the bottom of the window. If i click on "Folder set" then "Burn" is then enabled. It opens the "burn Project" window and goes though all the stages and says it complete but does not burn to disc. I have tried everything i know, even downloaded new media drivers from Microsoft. Please can eanyone help.

 

i read somewhere that not all Roxio 2011 packages have all the options and i am wondering if mine is one of them. how can I tell?

Retail packages that you buy have everything working!

 

It is only the OEM junk that comes with a PC or Burner that is crippled

 

Without seeing a screen shot of your Project, it would be nearly impossible to guess - HERE

Thank you Jim, I didn't think about spam when i put in my email address. I appreciate your advice. I have tried to attach my project. It is just a trail to see it Roxio will do menus and burn to disc. I am not sure it saved my file for you.

I think you do not have a DVD burner. The drive you have can read/write CDs but is only able to read DVDs and not write to DVDs. That is why you do not get the "burn" to disc enabled. When you burn to a folder set you are actually burning the files as they would be burned to the DVD but they are created on your hard drive.

I agree with Walt, you have a CD Burner but only a DVD Reader

 

If you are running from a laptop, you should consider an EXTERNAL Burner... They are much cheaper!

 

Quick search shows External DVD Burners for $20 or step up to a BD External for $75
