Check to see if the optical disc drive indicator is on. Check to see if the inserted disc is not dirty, bent, or damaged. It is possible that the disc may need to be cleaned. Check if the disc is properly inserted into the optical drive, with the label side facing toward you and the disc is centered in the tray.

If recording stops during a recording session, the disc probably is damaged. Please remove it and insert a different disc. Ensure that the inserted disc is writable, and it must be blank or appendable (with space to add more data files). Try writing the disc with other recording programs as some programs cannot write certain disc types. - If you intend to write data to DVD, make sure that you are recording the data with a DVD burning program. Select a slower write speed if you are not under a time constraint. Check if the added data files exceed the available space on the inserted writable disc. GB-AEDTK 28
