Having the same problem on my MBP, since Leopard. Just spits out the newly 'burnt' CDs, unable to Verify, and says they're unreliable..

Some who have had this error code have reset the pram, try this first of all and see how you get on.

I'm having the same problem, though the CDs do seem OK, despite the warning. Worked fine before Leopard. Argh!

Tried a PRAM reset and still not able to burn CD's in Finder or iTunes.

Get either laser power calibration errors or media errors.

These disks worked fine under Tiger.

I have tried PRAM reset, burning under another login all to no avail.

Disks work under Tiger and the failure had occurred since 'upgrading' to 10.5

Has anyone managed to cure this issue yet ?
