Hi there,
First of all , sorry for being the long post , i just wanted to clarify the issue
I have Benq 1620 pro DVD (+,-) R , am every time i try to burn something to a DVD-R , the drive ejects it and i have an error message that differs with the software am using for burning, here are the erros i got
1- With Nero 7 : It says ( disk empty , and asks me to insert one ) though the disk is there.
2- With WinXP pro , sometimes it even fails to create an image of the copied files giving an error , or if it copies them , it still asks me to insert a disk.
3- With CopytoDvD , it says ( Incompatible format ) , and advice me to try another brand.
So , apparently its a media compatibllity !! Here is the wierd thing , nero burns iso files perfectly on the same DVD-Rs !!
I just bought this burner , and want your advice , coz if its something in the burner itself i shall deliver it back.
Am trying to access benq's website to search for a firmware upgrade , but it isnt opening with me at all. www.benq.us
So any other alternatives for trusted firmwares ?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks for your time and effort
regards

I used a program called ( Discinfo ) and it shows at " region protection ----> Lock detected " , does region protection has anything to do with my problem ?
Could anyone give me a glimpse of the region protection plz ?
thanks

1)prodisc are rubbish

thanks hursty for ur response ,
I have Nero 7 installed , but i've choosen not to install InCD.
Sony's DVD-Rs are announced at benq's website as compatible media ! thats the wierd thing.
My firmware are up to date .
I think am getting closer to a solution , the issue now , the drive SOMETIMES detect the blank DVD-R and sometimes doenst , i need to keep ejecting and re-entering it many times untill it catch it. Thats not normal huh ?

@ Creaky ,
Am aware not to duplicate posts , i first posted here in the DVD burning forum describing the whole issue , mentioning all the results i had from different tests , but when i had the Nero log i thought i might be more specific and post it in the nero's forum. Am just clarifing.
Cheers
