I keep getting the following error message when I try to burn a DVD: "Burning Unsuccessful Unspecified Error"
It goes to 10% very quickly and then gives the error.
I have tried: making minor changes to the saved file and burning again,
uninstalling the program and reinstalling,
updating to the most recent 'build',
using CCleaner and then retrying,
rebooting CPU,
trying a different disc,
and probably some that I am not thinking of...
I am using PD v. 8 with the most recent build and I have read all the forum topics that I can find but did not see any help.
Vista 64 and I have plenty of disk space and memory to perform this. The disc contents are very simple and there is not a lot of menu creation.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have sent a message to customer service and have not heard back yet.
Thanks
Jim

Still unsuccessful. Thank you for your input James. I have tried everything. I have tried slowest speed burn, create a folder instead of and in addition to create a disc, complete uninstall / reinstall, attempting with the patch installed and not installed, and I could go on....
The most frustrating thing is that it was working perfectly, even with these SAME video files. In fact I even burned the project once before but just didn't like the menu settings, so I did a little more editing and now nothing.
I even went back and tried to burn another completely different project and it also fails.
The only thing that I can think of is that I did an uninstall (using the Vista uninstaller) of a program that was on the computer sometime around the start of this problem (but in reality, I am probably reaching here). The program is called Replay AV and it is used to capture video from online URL's. But several reinstalls of PD should have been fine in creating a working program.
I don't get it.
Frustrated to say the least. Thanks.
