I've never seen that error where it's burning a few of the songs, but not all. Makes it a frustrating diagnosis because it's obviously capable for burning.
Microsoft suggests trying a slower burn speed:
1. Click the Burn tab, click More Options.
2. In the Burn speed box, select a slower speed.
The only other thing I can think of is to look at the tray door of the burner and see what symbols are there like "+R" or "-R" or whatever and then make sure the blank DVDs you bought match the symbol on your burner.
Quoting: gnosticI tried a slower speed, checking for registry errors, and used different software (I have a few, but prefer Windows Media Player for my playlists). The problem is in Windows, because the other software worked fine, but my 15+ playlists are all in WMP.
I'll give this one a try too, but my music I ripped with WMP couldn't be seen by the other software I used.
What brand burner did you get?

buy a blu ray burner!!! noob
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1036004I am not interested in blu-ray, dude. I am not a media freak, and I just got rid of all my VHS and had to replace my meager collection with DVDs. I'm not about to go and buy a blu-ray player and pay out the nose for the blu-ray movies.
Like I said before, I am trying to whittle my extensive music library down to a few packable CDs in the event I have to 'bug-out' from my place for good.
I have a (A) take-all plan, a (B) take-some plan and a (C) take-few plan.
That is why I really want this WMP to work. I already have quite a few hours invested in creating these playlists and I've used WMP for probably 10-15 years with no problem.
Until my old burner hacked and wheezed its last, it all worked just hunky-dory.
