Hello, We have a very weird problem burning DVDs with Toast 5.1.2 on a beige G3 with Mac OS 9.2.2, 64 MB RAM. The burner is a Lacie DVD Burner, (a Pioneer A04 I believe), connected via firewire. The firewire port is provided by a Keyspan firewire PCI card. The partitions that we burn from were created with silver lining. The problems we have are that the disc will burn fine, then the verification process will fail. This happens in 1 out of every 3-4 discs burned. And, every time that the verification fails, Toast says it is around sector 2,xxx,xxx-2,1xx,xxx. We have done just about everything to this machine, including re-installing the OS, using minimum extensions set, re-installing Toast. We use Norton disk doctor each time on the files before we burn the DVD. And, we have an older CD burner also connected via the same firewire card that works fine. We have also tried the burner on a different machine and no problems. This system worked for 6 months without a problem, then all of a sudden started giving us these problems within the past 4 months or so. Has anybody seen similar problems in Toast??? We'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks, -- Chris

I got round the problem by disabling the firewire and USB authoring support extensions. It might be that there is a similar issue with the later version of Toast and DVD. Have you tried contacting Roxio for help? thier turnround for support is quite good. Paul

We've contacted Roxio a few times already, but the things they have mentioned did not work so far. Thanks again, -- Chris
