Good DVD burning program for Mac?

[Kura]

@_@ The manual mac one is complete crap. (You know.. the regular drag-and-drop one) I get disk failures like 80% of the time and I have no idea why. I burn 1 data DVD and then I have to throw 3 more blank DVDs away because of disk failures that happened on them. (I get the 0x80020060 = kDRBurnUnderrunErr = Device drained buffer without burn underrun protection... which is basically because I decided to like.. touch my computer as it was burning >___>..)

>_> If I can't find a way around it I'm just gonna save it to a FAT32 external drive and burn it off of a PC with Imgburn..


But do you guys know any good ones that make burning data dvds easier and more reliable?

Thanks!

What brand of disks are you using? Have you tried using them on a different computer? In my experience, it is the media that you use, not the program, that is the culprit of most burn failures.

Edit: Or it could be the computer doesn't like the media.

As for alternatives, a pricey one is Toast. I couldn't find a demo that you could download and try, however. Maybe I'm blind.

Philips and Memorex. They've worked fine 100% of the time on other (PC) computers. I think out of burning 130 DVDs perhaps 1 was a failure because I bumped the tower. The DVDs are fine. It's my finder that's the problem. (The equivalent of "My Computer" on a PC.)
I've even tried burning without touching the computer, right after a restart, with no other programs open and it still fails.

>_> I'm tired of wasting disks. I love my macbook, it runs everything beautifully but this.. and it's an annoyance. :/ I guess it's a given though.. maybe it's just crapping out because it's over 4 years old. I might just save it to external and burn it on my bro's PC desktop.

Toast Titanium is pretty much it. It really is the best out there for Mac.
