You're either using junk media, there's a lot more bad discs than good, the lens needs cleaned or the burner is dying. The recorders actually made by Toshiba were hands down the best ever made but the burners in them tend not to last a long time. That's pretty much the case with all standalone recorders, the burners just don't last as long as PC burners
