    I have a Mac powerbook G4 running OS X 10.4.8 and can't get certain CDs to copy with Toast 6 or 8. I get the sense code error message reported on many bulletin boards. I've changed mediums and it doesn't help. I think there is some bug in the program that isn't figured out. The same CD has the same error when burned with I-tunes 7.5 (19). The medium has worked fine for other CD burning attempts.

    I have the same problem on my Macbook Pro 10.4.11 with Toast Titanium 9. Itunes burns cd's fine. Anyone have a possible solution or reason in mind?

    I have actually run into this same issue burning with BOTH Toast and itunes on my laCie burner.  Never an issue if I use the internal drive on my iMac, but just recently almost ALWAYS find the error on my LaCie drive...

    The drive reported an error: sense key = MEDIUM ERROR Sense Code = 0x0C WRITE ERROR

Can't Burn Dual-Layer Disks

First, be sure your DVD burner is capable of burning dual-layered discs- Second, it may be rather an issue of copy protection on the disc. Have you succesfully copied commercial DVD's in this fashion? I'm unsure if I'm allowed to mention any software that might assist you in that regard- google is your friend.
