DVD - Rom SD-M1712 is able to burn discs double layer?

Hi, I have a pc compaq, with toshiba dvd players. DVD - rom SD-M1712. I have windows xp. I was doing a holiday film that is too big to go on a 4.7 GB dvd + r disc (which I have done before) so I thought that I had nothing better to do that to buy a larger drive so I bought a pack of 10 dvd + r dl discs. The drive does not recognize them and I don't know if it's because they are double-layer.

I don't know what that means in terms of anyway, but don't understand why it won't work.

Can anyone help. Karen

Hello

I googled around and found this page on the SD-M1712:

I agree with the first answer user. You must use the compatible player if you want to burn and read discs double layer (DL)

  • Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-M1612 cannot read a burned disc

    Hello

    I have a problem. I wonder if anyone can help please.
    I tried to view a DVD-R on my pc using my dvd player which is a Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-M1612, but it keeps giving me the same error message:
    Windows cannot read from the disk, it is may be corrupted or in a format that windows recognizes.

    The disc was burned on another computer and plays very well on this and on a normal dvd player, so I excluded that the disc is damaged.
    After talking to some people, they suggested me update called firmware?
    I looked at this and can't find it anywhere on Toshibas support or downloads pages feel like looking for a needle in a haystack :)

    I have provided this figure as it apparently is the firmware that is currently installed on the pc.
    I wonder if anyone knows where I can get the current version and if it will help me perhaps discovered the burned DVD-R.

    Hello

    Sometimes this happens to me also, and to be honest it's nothing unusual.
    All CD or DVD is supported by the CD/DVD drive.
    I put t know what laptop you have, but in most cases the user's Guide provides information and details on the mids compatible and taken in charge.

    I ve experience with TDK CD and DVDs and I convinced Mr. I ve tired different CDs and DVDs from various manufacturers and all were not entirely compatible.

    The update of the firmware is not always a solution, but it is sometimes useful to improve compatibility. The update of the firmware can be downloaded from the Assembly of the computer.
    It seems that Toshiba provides updates of the firmware for the series of notebook clean on the European driver Toshiba page.

    To cut a long story short, try a few different CD or DVD from different manufacturers and check what support is no longer supported.

    Good bye

  • DVD Rom won't recognize there is a disc in the drive

    My uncle gave me his old computer for Christmas. Before it was given to me it was sent for a tech restore the computer to factory setting. I think that they wrote zeros to the hard drive and started it completely.

    I used a few weeks after I had put the computer because I had installed something that did not work, System Restore. I had not won it first, but always ended up doing a system retore to when the computer is first restarted.

    Now my DVD Rom will not notice when a disc is in.  Him sometimes turns on, but the computer does not appear there in a disk. I looked in my computer and the CD drive is listed as empty.  Even when I try to play a DVD. The drive appears in the list player however.

    Any idea what I could have done wrong or how to fix this problem?

    Thank you.

  • Problem reading disc double layer, DVD player

    Windows DVD Maker burned fine on my drive of Verbatim DVD + R double layer.  But he won't play in any dvd player, we have.  Also tried to play in our portable dvd player and the PS3 with no luck.  What Miss me?  The 4.7 GB DVD works fine at our DVD players.  Thank you

    Thanks for your reply KSib.  I had the dvd recorded in the standard wmv file that windows saves in, which is very good.  But if you try to go to where you saved it on your computer and try to write on a double layer dvd, it is write it, but don't allow you to watch on your computer or another computer... not on a dvd player.  The only way to be able to play the DVD double layer on a dvd using Windows player is to burn the Windows DVD authoring application DVD (not the location to save to your hard drive).  It takes forever to burn, of course... but so well worth it in the end when he actually plays.

    Yay for me!

  • Can my laptop burn double layer DVD + R discs?

    Hey, I have a laptop of HP G60-213EM

    And I know that I can burn a DVD + R etc but can I burn double layer DVD + R discs? On my PC, I usually use Verbatim discs double layer. And really want a quick answer if anyone knows if my laptop will burn Verbatim dual layer DVD + discs R. thanks

    Easy trolling for the congratulations but not so easy to give the right info. Yes, you have the DVD Multi burner double layer, so you can burn discs double layer. You must also good burning software. Two layers are difficult to do and you get a lot of roller coaster. The jump from Layer 1 to layer 2 to the burning often causes a problem. The best way to do it is to make a .iso to first and then burn.

  • Satellite U200: I am not able to burn DVDs

    I have a problem with the DVD writer:

    Since I formatted (and then reinstall with the restore CD that was with the computer at the beginning), I am not able to burn DVDs!

    How can I do to get that!

    And also, it's weird, instead of showing a DVD player, there are 2: one for the CD, a DVD, when it's the same thing...

    I am able to read the DVD, but I am not able to burn them :(

    > And also, it's weird, instead of showing a DVD player, there are 2: one for the CD, a DVD, when it's the same thing...

    It's very strange it s confusing two s WEIRD appears in MY computer

    What you could do is remove the player of ODD (CD/DVD) Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
    Please check if the CD/DVD would be recognized correctly after reinstalling again.

  • double layer dvd win 7 x 64 does not burn

    I can't burn a double layer DVD (Memorex) in Win 7 x 64. Used to be able to but not now. Search many forums, no help. DVD burners have inclluded HL, HP 1260 t and Asus BW-12B1ST. All software and drivers up-to-date, I think. Even tried different DVD, no luck. Single layer all mfg all right, just not burn DL. Frustrated.

    If you can, lower the burning speed.  Double layer DVD are much more sensitive and downright temperamental than 4.7 standard.  And as you know, they are 5 or 6 times more expensive, too!

    Good luck.

  • Cannot burn DVD + R double layer in CS5.5

    Hey everybody,

    I can't burn a double layer (8.5 GB) DVD + R in CS5.5 again. I tried burning the same project on a regualr DVD (4.7) and it works fine. When I go to build the project, it begins to prepare to build and then I get the error message "access denied!" A little more information would be appreciated!

    I wonder if it's because it's a DVD + R and not DVD-R, but I don't see how it would make a difference, maybe I'm wrong...

    My drive Burns DVD, Blu - Ray etc so it should do.

    Any useful information would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Right click on the shortcut of en and choose Run as administrator.  Then you should be able to burn a disc double layer.

    1. were you able to burn disc using Windows Media Player 11 earlier?
    2 have you tried burning the disc manually?
    3. What is the exact error message you get?
    4. were there any changes (hardware or software) to the computer before the show?

    Download the Windows Media Player 11 from the link below and see if the problem persists.

    Previously, reinstall WMP (Windows media Player), you try to burn manually.
     

    Note: Yes, you can install Windows Media Player 11 from Microsoft, even if it has been installed by Dell. No, you do not have to remove the previous Windows Media Player 11, that it will update after you download and install from the link mentioned above.
