Burining DVD's?

Help me to find a good brand of blank DVDs for my DVD burner?

• I just purchased a 30 blank Memorex DVDs from Walmart, from the day i started to burn movies on those Memorex blank DVDs, i just keep have the same problems, the burning process was good, but when i take it to play on my home DVD player, and every minute, it just keep freezed and then played. And when i used ConvertXtoDVD from VSO, it the last 5 seconds of burning, it just froze there, i have to press eject on my computer DVD writer for it to come out ( the program keeps saying not responding at those last 5 seconds of burning). Not just that, when i used Nero to burn CD, at about 50% of process, it just appeared a message "fixation failed". Those blanks CD and DVDs i have tell you about are from Memorex. Is there any problems with my DVD burner, or is it just the brand of blank CDs and DVDs, is Memorex a good brand of blank CDs and DVDs? If not, please tell me either how to fix those kind of problems or should i just find another brand of blank CDs and DVDs? Thank you.

• Answer:

  Borrow a blank disc from a known user with good burn. Test that on your burner and see if it burns well then take the disc and play it at his house. The trick here is you have to find what's wrong with your burner/player. Not all player will support your DVD recorder. For example, my player only plays DVD+R and it doesn't play well with DVD-R. I head a SONY burner that burned well but it always gave bad disc toward the end of the movie. I always thought it was the media but had the same problem with different media. Later I just replaced the burner and problem went away. So it's not just the media but it can be burner or player or both.
