Have tried to burn bd-25. It works on harddrive, but has given me 4 bd coasters.
It starts to burn disc, does 0.01% and hangs, does nothing else. have to shut down bdr-205 pioneer drive to remove disc.
blu-ray drive is Pioneer bd-205 with firmware 1.08, external unit with usb.

windows 7 professional 64 bit
Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz
6 gig of ram
Nvidia Geforce GTX 275
Asus P6T deluxe motherboard
500 gig sata WD black drive

Hi Axlone1,

It sounds like a power problem, can you try to move the drive into pc, or change a better power cable of external drive to see the result?

Best Regards,

This is the problem...

Pioneer bd-205 with firmware 1.08, external unit with usb.

I have 4 Pioneer drives that will not work when connected as a USB external but all of them work fine when connected as internal drives.


Other brands work well as USB externals just not the Pioneers.

Pioneer bd-205 external USB

Thanks for the info.
I do not have space in computer case for drive, so I will just open the side of case and connect that way, rest pioneer drive on box. I will let you know if it works.

connected pioneer bdr-205 internally

Hi,

Have connected the pioneer drive internally, and tried burning the iso image again..
Failed:

You are going to try "Blu-ray to Blu-ray" option
Burn DVD image ... started
Task_2failed! Error=122
Process failed!

Any ideas?

It only writes label on disc and fails at 0.01%, another coaster

ERROR 122--------

122 HWS_FAILED_CALIBRATING 22 // Write failed at the beginning of the media (often a media that is poorly supported by the drive)

[Axlone1]

I have burned this media (Ridata BD-R 4x) with this drive using cyberlink producer software with no problem.

I have burned this media (Ridata BD-R 4x) with this drive using cyberlink producer software with no problem.

Until now.
Regardless of past performance your error means your drive does not like the media you are using.

Your choice... try a different media or not.

[Axlone1]

I guess you might be right.
I will buy another brand and try it.
Thank you

[Axlone1]

Okay,
I bought and tried Verbatim BD-R,
It also failed.

You are going to try "Blu-ray to Blu-ray" option.
Burn DVD image
Task_2 failed! Error=122
Process failed!

This time it went to 0.04% instead of 0.01%

I guess I cannot use the blu-ray option on my system...shame

Version 7066 released this morning...

[Axlone1]

which blu-ray burner do you recommend to use with DVDfab?

[maineman]

Trying to connect the dots here....
You said you have used the pioneer bdr-205 with Ridata BD-R 4x previously and had no problem.

Was this with software other than Fab?
Was this in a different rig from the one described below?
How was the pioneer connected?

windows 7 professional 64 bit
Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz
6 gig of ram
Nvidia Geforce GTX 275
Asus P6T deluxe motherboard
500 gig sata WD black drive

[Axlone1]

okay, the pioneer was connected with the external USB drive.
on the same rig. Software was cyberlink powerproducer 8.
created family HD video and burned it with Ridata BD-R 4x hub printable.
Disc turned out great, plays on my laptop blu-ray, my main rig above and on my samsung 1500 connected to my HD tv.
Also was able to burn the iso file from avatar created with DVDfab to verbatim bd disc, with pioneer connected internally using windows iso burning software and not DVDfab. the disc only plays on computer blu-ray drives and not on my samsung 1500.
Thank you.
