I have nero 5, and bought some 800mb cdrs to burn some movies I downloaded that are > 700mb...
Nevertheless, Nero displays "not enough space in the medium" and ejects the cd when I try to burn :( :( :(
Also, at "medium information" dialog, it recognises it as a standart 700mb-cdr
plz help |

| overburn? cant remember how exactly you do it, but it's in advanced options somewhere, you basically trick nero into thinking it's a bigger cd in the drive.. |

thanks!
"overburn" was the key word...
got this from Nero Help, in case anybody else is interested

Overburning a CD
First check whether your recorder can overburn or not. From the Recorder menu, choose the item Choose Recorder and select your recorder from the list. You will find information about whether the recorder supports overburning in the recorder information box.
Activate the overburn option within Nero. From the File menu, choose Preferences and then click on the Expert features tab.
Activate the checkbox which allows overburning and specify the maximum CD length. In theory you can choose any size up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds. Initially you should enter a length 2 minutes longer than the specified capacity. If SCSI/ATAPI errors occur at the end of the simulation or burning process, we recommend that you reduce the maximum overburn capacity or use a different make of CD. If no errors occur, you can gradually increase the overburn capacity.
Click on OK to confirm the change and close the dialog box.
This setting will have the following effect on the burning process:
If the amount of data to be burnt is larger than the normal capacity of the blank CD, but less than the maximum overburn capacity, Nero will ask at the beginning of the burning process whether you really want to overburn. If you answer yes to this question, Nero will start the burning process. If you answer no, the burning process will be aborted because there is not enough space on the destination CD.
