Problems burning disks

[willythecat]

Have vso convertxtodvd v2.2.2.256. Simple and easy no thrills program.
It recognises  the new dvd+r/w, converts the avi file and writes to disk. But when l check the disk there's nothing on it! I then run the disk through actives cd/dvd eraser program which says the disk is not empty and when l attemp to erase it, it just keeps going on and on and has to be manually rejected.
I've also tried a newer version of VSO (v3.4.7.121) but the same thing happens.
I'm not sure where the problem lies, programs or disks, but somethings not right. Can't be all faulty disks (philips) surely?
Any ideas, are there better conversion/burning programs.

The disk will appear empty until finalising...check the burning apps settings for this.
Once finalised no data can be added.

Sorry, should have added that the programs do finalise the disk, and eject it when they're finished.

How are you trying to open these discs ? ?

Hi Patio,
After inserting a couple of disks into the dvd player and nothing was being played, returned the disks to the pc, went into my computer, right clicked on drive icon, and selected explore. This works for all my disks, except recently.
At the moment, l've deleted all references of VSO and reinstalled another version (v2.2.3). Am currently doing another burn to see if this works.
Will keep you posted, unless of course you come up with any ideas.
Regards

Sorry patio, bit rude of me in not responding.
Everything seems to be working fine now with the new version of VSO.
I can only think that l did not completely remove the other versions that l downloaded.
Thanks again.
