I have been using X-Copy Gold (primarily the Express portion) version 3.0.4 upgraded from 3.0.2, for the past year with no problem copying 150 movies. The program suddenly now will read but won't write. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program but to no avail. Does anyone have an idea what the problem is? Thank you, Hankt5
It still won't write the movie. It doesn't recognize the medium. I even tried various brands even though I have have had good luck with various brands. It will read but the option to tell me that it sees the blank disc and do I want it to write immediately after reading doesn't appear. When the reading is finished, it is greyed out and won't function. As an experiment, I burned a music CD so know that the burner is OK. It has to be a problem with the program.
just because it will burn a cd doesn't necessarily mean the dvd portion of the burner is functioning. mine did everything BUT burn a dvd. i took it back got a new one, and perfect burns.
just a thought, it could be a hardware issue.
good luck.

i had the same problem but like the other guy it was a bad burner. Are you using a new burner? I made the mistake of picking up a cheep ( BTC ) at Fry's what a mistake. took it back and bought a Sony 710A and without doing one thing to my programs was up and burning again.
To really test your dvd writer, I would suggest trying a DVD Decrypter pass at it. Take one of your recent backups and have DVD Decrypter read and write it in ISO mode. If this fails, I would think that a DVD Writer upgrade is warranted. If you've been using it extensively, it would seem a good idea to have a backup on hand in any case.
