Dvd Burner problem

[The Bad Guy]

I've had my burner since the end of January and I've never had a problem with it.

Until Today.

I was trying to backup Love and Sex for my Fiancee (it's some romantic comedy for all the pervs that thought otherwise) the movie encoded fine and the burn process stopped and when I ejected the disc, there is a weird ring around the disc. I tried another disc and the same thing happened. I've never had one coaster before this.

The Ritek media I have is normally very reliable.

What can I do to fix this problem? I'm running Nero with DVD Shrink and have a NEC burner.

Here is the error I received:

Anyone know why this is?

Thanks in advance.
