Hi gwen and welcome to the forum. " possible causes for this: 1. you are trying to record 2 fast on the fly - I would recommend copying to HD first and then to DVD 2. DVDCloner has an issue - i would try another software to see if the same problems are there. Could you give us a little more details on your writer/media etc. plz Smile

Hi again. Please try another copying software to see if your problem persists 2 that spring to mind are Nero Recode and 1ClickDVDCopy which have trials. We have a full review of 1Click here: http://www.cdr-zone.com/review/40/1clickdvdcopy-review-by-cdr-zone.html You can use the trial 3 times to check if your problems resolved. If this doesnt work, then we will have to check your system set up we havent reviewed Nero Recode as yet but it also seems good.

To copy to a DL disc for use in a stand alone player, you need a burner that can set the Book Type to DVD-ROM. I used Nero, it worked like a champ. Search the web for "setting book type" to find specific instructions on how to set your burner.

Gwen, post a bit of your copytodvd log please, you can find it in your vso folder in program file just look for the C2C text file, as much as you've been doing tho, just post a portion of it, make sure it includes one complete session. Please check your caps lock key, it has to be stuck.
