So I burned an mp4 media file to a 50 GB rewrite drive, it completes fine but fails on the verification process, win10 says the disk has a bad blockThe size on the original source and burned disk show the same bytes 35.5 GB 35,990,209,912 but the size on disk is not the same, the original shows 35,990,274,048 bytes and the burned disk shows 35,990,210,560 bytes.The burned disk was also showing it as read-only and hidden, I was able to uncheck the hidden part.Would like some feedback as to why this is taking place.I have done a full erase of the rewrite disk before doing a new burn, the disk ha

Burning Files To cdr

I tried to drag a .txt file to the burn list, as suggested above, but it will not drop in. I get a message "+add to burn list" but I cannot get it to drop into the burn list. Is there another step I am missing?

 

Burning MP4 Files to a DVD

I have Windows 10 on my new desktop computer and have a 1.9 GB MP4 file that I want to burn onto a DVD so that I can play it on my DVD player. Each time I try -- all I get is the same MP4 file burned to the DVD -- which doesn't play on my DVD player. Doesn't
the system have to convert the MP4 file to something else to go onto a DVD so it can play in DVD players? What am I doing wrong here?

 

Windows 10, Media Player 12, Burning Audio CD "An Error Occurred" details states "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while burning the file to the disc."

When burning an Audio CD using CD-R or CD-RW I am getting an error from windows media player 12.

"Windows Media Player cannot burn some of the files. To investigate the problem, click the icon next to the files in the burn list."

Software installed on system is

• Windows 10 build 1803 (x64)
• Media Player 12.0.17134.81
• Nero 2018 Platinum

Using a LG model WH16NS40 drive and Magnavox 52x 700MB 80min disc. My C: drive is a Samsung 500 GB 850 SSD that contains my library of MP3 files. My paging file is managed by the system on a RAID 0 drive D: comprised of 3 Samsung 1 TB 850
SSD drives. Intel i7 7820X CPU and 128 Gigs of RAM.

Steps to reproduce,

1. Open Media player
2. Select enough MP3's in your library to fill the disc (I was using 700 MB discs)
3. Add them to a new bun list in Media Player
4. Insert a CD into drive. (tried both CD-R and CD-RW with same results)
5. From the "Burn" tab in Media Player I selected the "Start Burn" button
6. I immediately was given an error message:
   1. "Windows Media Player cannot burn some of the files. To investigate the problem, click the icon next to the files in the burn list."
7. Changed to optical drive letter (mine is drive E in media player. Status in media player stated "An Error Occurred"
8. Selected the red X next to file. It said the following:
   1. "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while burning the file to the disc."
9. Press the "Start burn" again and now different files from the same list are causing the error. Never gets to processing the files for the burn
10. Keep pressing "Start Burn" until it works and no errors are reported. No changes of the audio files just clicked the "Start Burn" button.

Burn options in Media player are:

• General
  • Burn Speed - Slow
• Audio CDs
  • Apply volume leveling across tracks - CHECKED
  • Burn CD without gaps - CHECKED
• Data Discs
  • Add a list of all burned files to the disk in this format: - M3U
  • Use media information to arrange files in folders on the disc - CHECKED

I have a video of the this process to back up what I'm reporting


The problem is when I have a large selection of files I want to burn to multiple Audio discs, I have to "baby sit" the process and only process enough files to fill one disc (multiple discs won't retry just moves onto the next set of files). A burn of multiple
discs is a nightmare using Windows Media player and is as pleasant as backing up a 1 TB drive to floppies.

I've seen other posts about un-installing media player (did that), defrag the hard drive (SSD try again), Clean the CD lens, CD's are old technology (really!!!, an excuse I seen on this forum from another user). https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...burn-cds/ee7bf79e-1000-4c38-9259-d8eaf71dee1c

Please fix Media Player so it won't error out on files that are obviously not the problem. I've been using Media Player since version 10. I've tried others and they either focus on doing too much, poorly or don't have this ability to burn a playlist as
easily at Media Player.
