• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I'm trying to burn some video to a DVD for university.
I'm using DVD+R but everytime I try it tells me that there was a problem authoring the DVD.

Can anyone help?

DVD burn issue

I am having the same problem. I am using the latest version of Burn.app and am running on Snow Leopard. I have the DVD image in question saved on my hard drive. It is 6.96GB. I have a dual layer DVD burner with a dual layer blank DVD inserted.

Any ideas?
