As you can tell thats from my system profiler. But when i try to burn using iMovie it says there isnt an Apple-Compatible burner available, when i try to burn with iDVD it gets to the point where its about to burn, but then crashes. What do i need to do to get it to work?!

I have the same drive... Reads fine, doesn't burn, using a burn folder (burn option greyed out).

 

Did you get this sorted?

 

Edit: noticed that disk utility reports Burn support - unsupported. Must be a way of tricking it into working...

For anyone else's future reference, I was in a somewhat embarrassing manner able to fix my own problem...

 

I had several months before downloaded the tweakui style app Cocktail, and had used it to de-clutter some of the finder drop down file menus. I had ticked 'hide burn to disc' option. As soon as I unticked this, the burn folder function 'burn' button became clickable and all was well. Who would have thought killing a drop down menu item would break burning in finder all together!

 

Edit: discutil still reports write mode un-supported, but it works.

thank you Juuva! I had the same problem and had also hidden the "burn to disc" option via Cocktail. Unhiding that permitted me to burn a folder to disk. I also got an error at the end of the burn, but the burn was, in fact, successful.
