  1. As a fellow programmer, I understand with generic log entries. I now understand what was happening with my drive using DVD-RW. However, I do think there is an opportunity to make ImgBurn more user friendly. On the screen where the user selects the ISO or files to write, ImgBurn could notice that the image size is less than the minimum required by SOME drives, and then warn the user about the write potentially taking extra time because of the padding performed by some drives.
  2. Are you saying that ImgBurn only writes 146MB in this case, but the drive is padding the data to write a total of 1GB? If so, couldn't ImgBurn provide more descriptive status to the user, such as "Waiting for the drive to pad data to the minimum of 1GB"?
  3. OK, I accept your explanation. I suggest that the progress bar for writing reflects the 1GB instead of the 146MB. 5 minutes of "Synchronising Cache..." gives the user the impression that something went wrong.
  4. Please look at my post and log again. The log shows that there was 5 minutes between "14:18:37 Synchronising Cache..." and "14:23:51 Abort Request Acknowledged ", which is where I clicked cancel. The write completed very quickly because it was just 146MB on a DVD. After the write progress display showed completion, I waited 5 minutes for ImgBurn to automatically open and close the tray. Are you seriously suggesting that ImgBurn just needed more time before it was good and ready to open the tray? It looks to me like ImgBurn couldn't verify with this drive, and hung on "Synchronising Cache...", because this drive doesn't present DVD files to the OS until after the newly-burned DVD is cycled in the tray. This is why I checked: Settings|Write|Page 1|Cycle Tray Before Verify. Yes, as I mentioned "ImgBurn hung and I clicked Cancel," the only way I could have started the Verify operation was manually. Thus, my recollection of events matches the log.
  5. In v2.5.6.0, I checked: Settings|Write|Page 1|Cycle Tray Before Verify For mode="Write image file to disc", I unchecked Test Mode, and checked Verify. The bug is that the tray did not open and close in between writing a verifying. Below is my log file showing the failure. At "14:18:37 Synchronising Cache...", ImgBurn hung and I clicked Cancel. I then got success from the verification of the disc I just burned. Note, that Tools|Drive|Eject works with ImgBurn v2.5.6.0 and this drive. With this same drive and PC, I did not experience the same bug with ImgBurn v2.5.5.0. ; //****************************************\\ ; ImgBurn Version 2.5.6.0 - Log ; Sunday, 16 October 2011, 14:26:59 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 14:08:16 ImgBurn Version 2.5.6.0 started!

  6. Thanks for the quick and clear answer. Want to move this topic to the ImgBurn Suggestions forum? Without CD-DA data verification, the user must listen to the whole CD before knowing that the burn was successful. I suspect that the same people who use the verification feature for data CDs/DVDs would likely use the feature for Audio CDs, not just the hardcore audio enthusiasts. Especially if all the user has to do is look for their drive offset at http://www.accuraterip.com/driveoffsets.htm. Since ImgBurn doesn't verify the CD-DA data or read the C2 errors, what does it verify for Audio CDs?
  7. I am using ImgBurn v2.4.1.0, Windows XP SP2, a Plextor PX-800A IDE drive, and TDK CD-RW media. Plextools reports audio read offset = -192 bytes and write offset = +192 bytes (48 stereo samples), Exact Audio Copy reports that C2 error reporting works. Working scenario: In the Settings, Verify tab, I checked the box for Ignore CD-DA Data. I created a CD CUE file based on WAV files, and I checked the Verify box when writing the CD-RW. The verification passes, and the CD plays fine. Failure scenario 1: In the Settings, Verify tab, I UNchecked the box for Ignore CD-DA Data. I change the mode to Verify, and attempt to verify against the CD CUE image file. There is a miscompare on every LBA, starting with LBA 13. Log says: Note: The drive probably offset the audio samples - this is common with CD-DA tracks. Failure scenario 2: In the Settings, Verify tab, I UNchecked the box for Ignore CD-DA Data. I created a CD CUE file based on WAV files, and I checked the Verify box when writing the CD-RW. There is a miscompare on every LBA, starting with LBA 13. Log says: Note: The drive probably offset the audio samples - this is common with CD-DA tracks. I can't find any ImgBurn setting for the drive's audio offset. Am I doing something wrong for verification to pass, or does ImgBurn not successfully verify CD-DA data with a drive having non-zero audio offset? Does ImgBurn detect C2 errors during verification when ignoring CD-DA data? Please note that verification of CD-DA data is the main reason I am trying ImgBurn. Plextools Professional LE is very fast at doing an accurate rip with this drive, but it does not support verification for CD-DA data, otherwise I would be using it for CD burning. If ImgBurn could work for verifying CD-DA data, it would rule! Please also note that Exact Audio Copy uses http://www.accuraterip.com/ to get audio offset data for a drive. However, I would be happy with a manual entry in ImgBurn since I only need to determine this once for each drive.
