Ulead has a new version out? I see a ref to 2.0 vs 1.5 a couple of posts up. I only see 1.5 listed on their website.

I'm going to try just +r media tonight, but someone said +rw worked for them. I get a good burn with no errors, but it wont play iun any dvd player or in my new TL.

ARGHHHH

nice job by acura putting such a f***d up plyer in my new car.

Why not just use a mp3 player or put a sd card slot in?

Burn.Now 2.0 is part of "DVD MovieFactory 4 Disc Creator".

It works about the same as v1.5, but has a nicer interface, and a few new features (printing disc labels, some track effects/processing,e tc)

schrady

Got a new Sony dru-800a. Installed it on a windows 2k machine.
No luck with DVR+ or -

Put the new drive in a XP machine. Same thing. No luck with all media. +- or RW of both

Upgraded all the ulead engines and files.

THE DVD PLAYS IN WINDVD 7.

I dont get it. No errors...nothing. Seems to burn fine.

My new TL plays the dvd audio that came with it.

I dont have to eject all the cd's in it, do I?

Memorex media and an off brand is what I've tried.

This is frickin unreal.

HELP!!!!

schrady

still NO luck. tried sony -r media and another cheap -r media.

You guys have got this to work with the patch and other files, right? I dont want to buy unless it will work.

schrady

Triend converting files to wav. No luck
Tried ripping my own cd...nuthin
Tried converting my own rip to wave...nada

I've run outta options I think.

Media, burner, media speeds.........All files updated......ARGHHHH

One way around the 80070057 error is to use Burn.Now 2.0 and add songs a few at a time (drag and drop them into the application). When you hit the bad song, the application crashes. So, next time, don't add the bad song. 8-)

Took a few minutes this way to figure out which of the 99 songs my wife wanted in her compilation it was having problems with. Removed it and successfully burned the other 98 songs to her own DVDA.

ManbirPrihar

I've burned DVDAs successfully with the following:

LG GSA-4163B drive (desktop running Windows XP MCE) using Burn.Now 1.5

Matshita UJ-820S drive (laptop running Windows Server 2003) using Burn.Now 1.5

BenQ DW1625 drive (desktop running Windows XP MCE) using Burn.Now 1.5 and 2.0. I've noticed that this drive is a bit "finickier" than the LG when I put in media that needs to be erased first (takes it a while to figure that out and ask me if I want to erase it).

All drives were updated to latest firmware.

Burn.Now 1.5 needs the updated DLL that I posted before. Otherwise, it burns the DVDAs, but the TL doesn't recognize them completely (it sees them as DVDA, but spits them back out).

Burn.Now 2.0 works straight out of the box.

I'm using generic (Optodisc) 4x DVD-RW media now, but it's also worked with generic (Acro Circle) 16x DVD-R media and generic (Optodisc) 8x DVD-R media.

No luck with either DVD+R or DVD+RW media (generic brands) -- anything burned on these aren't recognized at all by my TL.

schrady

I did buy it. Now when I use your dll on v1.5 I get a 800700e error. It wont even burn.

The dvdas that burned with the full purchased version and without the new dll didnt work.

I'm calling them this am. Any ideas?

markjrenna

I get that same error 800700e with the dll posted here. I tried the patches but they don't seem to do anything to allow me to make a DVD-A.

The only success I'm having is with Audio only DVD's. I just install Burn.Now out of the box with no patches or anything. I really only wanted this product to do that anyway. You can put a lot of music on a DVD

I never tried to use Burn.Now's CD to wav extraction. Maybe you have too. I use Audiograbber and it works fine with Burn.Now for Audio only DVD's and it is fine when I use discWelder to make my DVD-A discs.

I have 100% success with discWelder. You guys with problems might want to try it. Check out this link...

Very strange indeed. As mentioned I have been using the trial version 1.5 with the patch and have been able to burn DVD-R's that work fine in the TL. Whether I first used the program to rip CD's to Wav's and then burned or if I just did direct from CD or MP3 to DVDA it has always worked. I have not encountered a bad song (file)yet (knock on wood). I am not sure if I am willing to pay the 40 bucks if I can't have separate folders because 99 songs altogether is bad since we have no text.
It's not the end of the world but hunting between a few folders is better than skipping through 99 files.

But it is great to be able to have almost 600 songs in the changer with CD quality rather than MP3's. Plus I have an 8 CD of Japanese Lessons wch can now fit on 2 DVDA's (not that any of it is sinking in - my brain doesn't seem to want to absorb any more information)

Did a clean install xp pro

Used the purchased copy of burn now

NO GO

Used the patch provided here...(new .dll file)

error 8007007e AGAIN

Changed drives from a Sony dvd to an NEC dvd burner.

SAME ERROR

Its not the drive, its the crap software.

I'm pissed, getting my money back from tech support, and buying discwelder.

BURN NOW is a crap program and tech support cant help

schrady

Something is wrong with that .dll file posted here.

It wont register with regsvr32, but version 1.004 will register.

I think its corrupt and I've downloaded it 4x now. It's not being handled like a dll file.

Error 8007007e has to do with unregistered/recognized modules. For those of you on xp pro sp2, it wont work.

Man, I've made a shitload of coasters. Like 20-+ now.

lindros2

I've contacted their tech support (in Taiwan) and they keep asking the same stupid questions. After a month I've completely given up - this software is crap.

Here are two alternatives:

You don't need to register the DLL. Just place it in the correct directory, overwriting the one that is there (unless you have Burn.Now 2.0, in which case you don't need the updated DLL).

I've never encountered the 8007007e error. I'm running XP SP2.

schrady

I did a 100% clean install and no go.

I did overwrite the dll file in the common files/ulead/dvd folder

8007007e refers to software conflicts, not hardware. Both my burners work fine.

I have NO CLUE how you can use xp pro and get it to work and most of us cant.

This software just plain sucks and tech support cant tell me why.

lindros2

I got a refund issued today. Couldn't deal with it any more...

schrady

I too, got a refund from lame ass ulead.

I DID get this one to work, on both -r and + r media (memorex). I'm going to try rw, but I bet it works too

Heres the link:

http://home.comcast.net/~adobeman/DVDA/

This is from another thread here. Its not for computer newbies, and it takes a long time (1-5 to 2 hours to mix audio and burn)

BUT IT WORKS!!

One thing I found is that it uses wav files and its hard to convert mp3 to wav and use them with this method.
I had to rip wav's from cd's

markjrenna

Use your Burn.Now to convert MP3 to WAV files. Works fine. Only time I have seen it fail is with some poorly ripped MP3 files.

chuck_r

Tried to mp3 to wav. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't...and with mp3s ripped at the same bitrates with the same source.

No way of telling which of, say, 99 tracks is problematic...just a general 80070057 error message.

Frustration factor is such that I'm seriously considering going to WaveLab...figure that within 6 months I'll be able to capture 5.1 with a set top dvd-recorder from HDTV (gotten some great concerts with my current DVD recorder...only records in stereo, but the broadcasts are 5.1)...so, will want an application that can handle 5.1. will have to get a new recorder, of course, but HDTV with 5.1 is so cool, I'm sure I'll do it...

Also like to put books on CD on DVD-Audio...very nice to consolidate, but would be nicer to break them into groups...

Wavelab is expensive, but frustration maybe more so...

I got this thing to work using the patch, but it takes freaking FOREVER for it to recognize the disc and start playing. The whole Navigation warning, push OK thing finishes before a song starts playing. Is anyone else having this problem or does it read right away for you like a CD would?

ManbirPrihar

I don't see any delay before it recognizes and starts playing the DVDA...

Ulead has already released patches for Burn.Now to fix problems, you can get the official patches from the following links.

For Ulead Burn.Now 1.5:
http://www.ulead.com/tech/bn/bn_ftp.htm

For Ulead Burn.Now 2.0 (in DMF4 DC package):
http://www.ulead.com/tech/dmf/dmf_ftp.htm

They both includes the following fixes:

1. New MP3 plug-in to fix the 0x80070057 error message. Also fix some MP3 file handling problems.

2. New DVD-Audio burning engine LXDAEng.dll v1.0.0.11 to fix the DVD-Audio playing problem.

3. New CDA plug-in to fix some special CD audio ripping problem.

You can download the patches for your Burn.Now (if you are using the paid version or the boundled version).

For trial version, you can try to unzip the patch file and copy the updated files to the install folder except the BurnStar.exe or BurnNow.exe.

If you copy the .exe file to the install folder, your trial version will not be working and will prompt a "security error" message.

For LXDAEng.dll, please copy to "System drive:\Program Files\Common Files\Ulead System\DVD" folder and register it by using regsvr32.exe.

You must use LXDAEng.dll v1.0.0.11 from the official patch to fix the DVD-A playing problem.

Best Regards,
H.T.

Ive been lucky so far in making some usable DVD-A's with Ulead. I was surprised that the TL was able to read a Dual Layer DVD. Still limited to 99 songs, but the extra capacity helps when I burn "longer" as opposed to "shorter" songs.

luniz97

why am i unable to download the trail version off the website?

luniz97

i got it to work...anyone able to get track names?

Sylvain

I got your file and successfully created my first DVD-A with 99 tracks. This is great. Thanks.
