You are posting in the wrong forum, you should be posting in the DVDXCOPY forum.

Are you sure that you are not trying to write more than 4.3GB to the blank DVD? Look at the log.

do a search for power calibration errors, this is somewhat common of an issue and not just with DVD X Copy. Either media or hardware related I believe.

Power calibration error can mean several things.The easiest one to fix would be bad media.The toughest one would be a burner going bad on you.
Sometimes you can fix this just by slowing down your burn speed or changing your media.
Check the link im my sig for other ideas.

LOL I see the 3 of us were typing at about the same time.

<9>I have a Power calibration error?
Options you can try with "power calibration errors"
o Try another brand of DVD-/+R or DVD-/+RW media. This is the most common cause of OPC errors.
o "Slow down your burning speed".
o Update the firmware of your recorder. Check the manufacturer's website for the latest version.
o Check your power connectors, loose connections do occur. Don't share power with other devices. It needs its own power connector. If the errors occurs with an external recorder, Check the USB cable and connections.
o Try different configurations, such as taking the DVD-ROM to the primary IDE bus as slave and have only the recorder connected to the secondary IDE bus as master.
o Clean or have your DVD burner serviced. There are cleaning kits available. Sometimes just a gentle appplication of canned air can remove dust blocking the laser.
o Replace the DVD burner.
lets hope we don't need to do the last one :-)
