Burning Problems

[sebtom987]

I have an imac flat pannel and recently it has stopped burning dvds. If you put a normal dvd into the system it will play it so i dont think it is a hardware problem. But when i am in iDVD and i try to burn a disc it dose not work. It requests the DVD-R but when i put the disc in the screen just sits on 'Waiting to recognise disc'.

If anyone has any idea on how to fix this problem it would really help me

welcome to the forums!

i'm guessing you've tried more than a few blank disks to make sure it wasn't just one or two bad ones.

also, will it burn a cd-r?

if nothing works, i'm wondering if there is a preference file for iDVD that you could delete to set things straight (i'd check, but i'm not near my mac).

Go to ure mac preferences and check what ure mac can burn, and if theres nothing there then, what eric said is right u probally deleted a file in idvd or something.i no i deleted idvd somehow.
