i've been backing up my dvds for years. but today it just stopped working. i use a combination of dvd shrink 3.2 and dvd fab 5 or dvd decrypter 3.5.4.0 for heavy decryption ( but still put it through dvd shrink after) nero, and imagtool Burn 1.1.0. and burn on dvd-r. i used dvd fab on hancock and then ran the decrypted file through Writing to disc dvd shrink but the burn failed after i put in a blank disc. i get the same message whether i use dvd shrink from the start or just use imgtool directly from the right click drop down menu when i click on the movie folder stored by divd shrink on the hard drive. the highlights of the error message are

===> Burn process started at 2.4x (3,324 KB/s)
===> Illegal disc
===> Could not perform start of Disc-at-once
===> Burn process failed at 2.4x (3,324 KB/s)
1A23-0085-3040-2081-5956-4525

it may be coincidence but it was a new pack of tdk dvd-rs i got at frys. i tried another movie, strange wilderness with little decryption needed just through dvd shrink, and same message with burn failed. also tried another movie i had previously successfully backed up, life aquatic, and still burn failed. so then i tried a new batch of dvd-rs, magnavox dvd-r, and still no success. i've reinstalled dvd shrink as well. however, i was able to successfully burn a music mp3 cd so the burner still seems to be working. just wanted to rule out all the things i thought might be helpful in making a diagnosis. thanks in advance, and here is the full error message:

Your DMA is off, it needs to be on.

Use decent media for more consistent results...such as Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden.

Here, how to reset/enable DMA back on http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260038

About the firmware, LOCOENG provided you the link, so you gotta download the same model as your drive and update the firmware.

This should be the right firmware ~ http://liggydee.cdfreaks.com/fwinfo/en/3500a/218

To flash your drive you will also need binflash Win32 GUI ~ http://binflash.cdfreaks.com/

When flashing make sure the drive is empty (no disc), tray closed and reboot after a successful flash.

when i expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers in the device manager i dont get the same selections as you show on your tutorial. i only get "NVIDIA NForce 2 (tm) SPP/IGP ATA Controller.

and the link for the firmware update takes me to a page that is unavailable.

it sounds like were heading in the right direction though, thanks for your help so far. anymore suggestions?
