MacBook Pro Wont Burn DVDs

[AppleTecFan]

My MacBook Pro wont burn DVDs properly well wont burn my Xbox 360 Games right. Every time I attempt to burn a game I finish the burn with this error

I heard changing the book type would fix this but I dont know how

or is my drive broken?

Help?

sometimes trying a different brand of discs helps.

I don't know if it's the brand or not, but I wouldn't use anything but Toyo Yuden. (Premium Line - haven't tried Value Line)

Try burning a music or video disc. Ignore any errors. Play it back.

If it works, it works.

EDIT - Best to burn DATA at 1X if you're having issues.

Does your roommate use the same computer? Some DVD drives do not like certain dvd's. I've always used verbatim and have had no problems.

I am using maxell , I heard verbatim are the best but I dont want to waste the money when I am not able to burn them myself .

Well... you can't keep doing the same thing and expect different results, right?

Why don't you just buy a couple of RW's? Tinker with various speeds and scenarios until you determine whether it's the drive.

unfortunately, finding the best DVD-R is more of a "sample until you find what works". don't invest in a spindle unless you've tried a few of each and know what works, and what doesn't.
