Hi,
I have a Macbook 2ghz with 1gb memory 667mhz ddr sdram using mac osx version 10.4.11 and am having problems with Roxio Toast Titanium version 9.

Basically, I am burning say 4 .avi movie files some with subtitles onto a dvd as a divx disc and toast burns the dvd to about 47% then it just stops and I have to quit the program. Can anyone help me with this? It worked fine when I had version 8 then it started doing the above so I got version 9 and nothings changed. Version 9 works fine on my other computer. It is really frustrating. Should I remove some files from my computer to help....

I have just updated the firmware on my computer and still nothing works. To be more specific when toast is 'encoding' it always stops responding at 47%.

I wonder about two things. Is your disc space being using and getting filled. Are you writing to a single layer disc and Toast is expecting a dual layer disc.

Try creating a disc image first, then try burning that to a disc.
