Okay, I've got a new sony dru 510a, and it came with sonic DVD burning software.

I practiced with this software on a VCD, just so I knew how it worked. Now I tried to burn my first DVD. The computer spends hours coding the video, burns halfway, and then I get some damn random error message and a coaster.

What the hell am I supposed to do about that? The error message amounted to "couldn't complete command."

What the hell do I do about that? Try again and hope I don't waste $2? This is such bullshit.

Is there some better software out there I could try? I really am not willing to waste 2 dollar discs to make coasters, especially when I have no idea why it did in the first place.

While we're at it:

Athlon XP 1600+
512mb DDR2700
80GB Western Digital Special Edition
30GB WD
XP Pro; all current updates
The DRU is master on IDE 1, the WDSE is master on IDE 0.
