I have an HP Lightscribe double layer 16x DVD+/- R/RW drive, and I'm attempting to burn data onto a Memorex brand DVD-R at 4x speed.
Burning the disk goes well for the first, say, a third, and then gets an "Unspecified Recorder Error".
After that, the error file says "all writers idle, stopping conversion"
Everything goes downhill from there. Is anyone kind enough to shed some light on this?
Here's the error log, if anyone can make sense of it:
