58 2nd coaster, this time first I saved it on the hard disk as a separate
59 activity as an iso image and then when I tried to burn, it aborted at
60 3606380544/718756692 (50.2%). Any ideas what's at fault here? I am using
61 DVD+R DL 8.5G by Imation, which I believe are not bad quality blanks (but not
62 sure). I have reached a stage where buying another DVD is cheaper than
63 continuing the effort to copy it. :-(
