I'm very new to LightScribe, so it could just be a newbie's miskate, but how do I know if the disc is actually being burnt? I'm using "Droppix Label Maker", first of all. I inserted the LightScribe disc (DVD) and then designed the label I was going to burn onto it. I went into Print Preview to check that it looked okay, then hit "Print". I selected my DVD Drive, and clicked OK. The program then froze, refusing to do anything wherever I clicked, and the LED light on my drive has started blinking, but very slowly. does this mean it's burning the image, or that there's something wrong? Seems a little fishy to me, but I thought getting help here would confirm, or disprove, my thoughts. Any feedback is, obviously, much appreciated. Thanks in advance, TD666.

Hi TD666 !
The light on the drive should blink just like it does when you burn DATA.
A LABEL should take between 15 and 25 minutes to be burnt.
If it takes a lot longer or the LABEL process fails, there is something wrong.
Most like;y the problem is in the drive, but it could be with the software.
A lot of problems have been reported with drives, from incorrectly label drives like Matthew reported with an HP drive to drives that have gone out of calibration.
