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.

I 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.

try alternate burning software

this is free and reliable:

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?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1036193


Sony Optiarc 24X.

or this one

InfraRecorder is a free CD/DVD burning solution for Microsoft Windows. It offers a wide range of powerful features; all through an easy to use application interface and Windows Explorer integration.

wtf buy a blu ray burner!!! noob
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1036004


I 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.
