Yes, ive tried at least 4 and the first one i used worked fine on my last 10.5.2 but i reinstalled leopard and now it doesnt :confused:.

I just upgraded my processer to a dual 1.73Mhz with 1.5Gb SDRAM.

I have also upgraded to OS 10.5.2.

Now I find every DVD project I burn with TOAST 8.0.3; (lastest version, and which worked fine prior to 10.5.2); will burn the project; (VIDEO_TS & AUDIO_TS folders); but verification always fails with the message:

"Mismatch at byte 1813/sector 92357. verification Failed".

It's always byte 1813, while the sectors always different.
If I boot into OS 10.3.9; (backed up on firewire drive); and use Toast 6 the same project always burns fine.

I'm beginning to think it's something to do with OS 10.5.2 ......
 
Yeah My Toast 8 is acting fishy. I keep getting a pinwheel then it says "Connection Failed" on a disk icon. This happens when I quit the program, or after a burn. Then I got a crash on a disk labeling program that automatically popped up after the burn. The disk burned okay though.:confused:
 
Try deleting the Xvid codec in the Library>Quicktime folder. This should solve your problem (it solved it for me). I downloaded this codec today and just by chance tried to use Toast afterwards. It wouldn't work. All seems good now though :)

Moving the Xvid codec out of the Library>Quicktime folder solved the same problem I was having, thanks!

It took m e a few days to work through MY problem and resolve it.
At the same time I installed the new processor I added 512Mb RAM, replacing a 128Mb strip of RAM.

The new RAM turned out to be faulty. I used "REMBER" (free download) too confirm it. Removed faulty RAM, replaced it with old RAM.

Just burnt 3 DVDs in a row. All burnt and verified OK.
Not sure why it worked in OS 10.3.9 with faulty RAM, but there you go, that's computers for you.

download Perian which includes codecs for divx, xvid, flv, mkv etc for QuickTime. i have no issues with Perian and Toast.
 
Apparantly Toast 8 does share preferences with Toast 7 and will cause irregular behavior. It will also install Divx 6.0 next to 5.2. Possibly causing additional irregular behavior. They reccomend doing a complete uninstall (you have to do it manually). It fixed my issues. From Roxio Support:
