Hello
I just received a Mashita UJ-845 dvd burner and i have it installed in an external case connected to a mac mini via usb. Problem is the idvd wont burn to it, and under utilty disk info, i states i cant write to it and under system profiler says write:no.

i tried to run patchburn but that didnt work. what can i do to make this drive, which should be supported, supported?

What OS are you running? I'm pretty sure the latest versions of Tiger support that drive.

You need a patcher (Patch_iDvd) to enable iDvd to recognize an external drive. You can find it here:http://www.hardmac.com/niouzcontenu....005-05-26#4090. It is located at the very bottom of the page.
