Problem with other software causing premature results


BlizzardUK

Recommended Posts

I use IMGBurn version 2.5.7.0 on a Windows 7 64bit PC.

 

My problem is that when trying to multi-task by using certain other software it will cause IMGBurn to finish a disc early but it makes out is has burnt correctly, when it hasn't. The culprits seem to be TMPGenc software, not just one of theirs, but any of theirs you can burn discs with. I often burn dual layers while making the next one in the TMPGenc software, to save on time. However if I am burning a disc in IMGBurn then get to the write page in TMPGEnc then the IMGBurn write will stop and say it has completed. Quite often I will have 20 dual layer discs to burn in a row, so if I don't multi-task then it can be 10 hours before I can use the PC again.

 

Any ideas ? The log of the last incident it happened is below. The usual time for a burn of this type is 27 minutes, 15 minutes was far too quick and I remember it happening when it wasn't near the end in percentage.

It must have a weird filter driver installed or something similar and it's making out that the commands I'm issuing to burn the disc are completing successfully when they aren't. It's out of my hands I'm afraid.

 

Thanks. Does this mean it is managing to unlock the drive even though IMGBurn has locked it ? 

 

If you are ever bored and want to experiment, then they do trials of their software (Mastering Works 5, Authoring Works 5, and Smart Renderer 4), all three of those cause it.
