Actually, I believe given how much data is needed to be written to Blu-Ray, you must use a USB 3.0 enclosure for a Blu-Ray drive if you plan to write Blu-Rays to it. Otherwise, you might get by with a Blu-Ray burner in a USB 2.x enclosure if you plan on only writing CD's and DVD's in it. The USB speed has nothing to do with how fast any device in an enclosure will write. Media are capped at specific speeds depending on the media. Even reads probably wouldn't be faster. While the USB 3.0 would send data faster, the device is still capped at a maximum speed it can read at.

thanks for the info --- if the device was a Blu-ray burner would that make a difference? Lastly, as you noted that MS changed the way usb 3.0 is detechted, if the usb burned is connected to a usb 3 port, would Imgburn will the "wites" to it still be at usb 3 speed? Thanks

ImgBurn doesn't make a WEBM file. ISO is the correct format for burning to disc, just use Write mode. If your ISO contains a WEBM file, that's another story - remember an ISO is like a box that you put things in, in this case, someone may have put a WEBM file in it. So take a look around the internet for something that'll convert your WEBM file into the correct DVD Video disc format (a VIDEO_TS folder) and then burn that with ImgBurn in Build mode.

I have this old Sony BVD-IT1000ES. I am trying to make a seniors 60-minute workout disk from YT with extension iso. IB makes a WEBM file which this player does not recognize. Is there a setting to change the format that this player will recognize and play.

1.8 GB for a 3 hour movie is WAY too small. You could get that if you compressed the video in two passes, but the video quality would be awful. A 3 hour movie would normally be a DVD-9, or roughly twice the size of a DVD-R. If I had to hazard a guess, this is probably a video container file of the movie and not a VIDEO_TS DVD Video compliant disc. So, most likely, a standalone DVD player probably wouldn't play it even if the burn was successful.

I suspect someone will say that's likely the problem since it appears when it comes to laptop burners they are so-so compared to proper desktop burners and I think it's especially true given you are apparently using quality DVD media (i.e. "DVD-R (Disc ID: MCC 03RG20)"), assuming those are the real Verbatim media. If it's pretty much just the movie itself, off the top of my head, 1.8GB seems a bit too small as for a 3hr movie you would generally want it to take up as much of that space as possible which could increase video quality. p.s. but personally with today's tech, it's more optimal to 'find' that movie in a decent bit rate 720p/1080p x264 variation as the quality will be better and if you got say a computer or laptop with a HDMI port, you can play it from there to your TV in HD quality which is hands down better than DVD at this point in time. but considering how old DVD tech is, it's not bad for SD video. because when I play my movies it's typically from my computer etc to the TV using the HDMI connection. just make sure the TV connection is using the TV's 1080p (1920x1080) res as on Linux, by default it seems to select a lower res, but I can fix it easily enough so it's using 1920x1080 to get max image quality, otherwise it looks noticeably worse.

Hi! It's my first time using this program, I'm trying to burn a movie into a disk, the movie (The Godfather) is 3h long and weights 1.8GB, the dvd I'm using says that it has 4.7GB and 120 MIN of space. When I try to copy the movie in the DVD it gives me an error (Session FIxation Error Writing Lead In), is the movie too big for the disk or did I just buy bad DVDs?

I'd settle for a 10th anniversary release celebrating the last release.

Welp, fingers crossed for a 20th anniversary release!

I never did BD video discs so I am not familiar with this but as you mentioned ProShow Producer I thought I chime in... I don't know what output you've got from ProShow Producer back in 2014 but I just did it to try out. I opened the last compilation made with the program and selected Blu-ray to publish. It complained it didn't find the CD drive. I was expecting to complain for a BD drive as I don't have one but it just asked for CD drive. Anyway just got over it an created an ISO file. Mounted the ISO in Virtual Clone Drive to see what's in it. It has two folders BDMV and CERTIFICATE. BDMV has a bunch of other folders in it and other folders and files under the branch. CERTIFICATE is empty. Started VLC and go to Media > Load a disc... select Blu-ray hit Play. VLC showed an error screen about not having Java installed for playing back the menu. Got rid of the error and the show played fine. My assumption is that the ISO it created is fine and respects the BD standard and if it would be put on a BD media it should play in standalone player. Now, is the disc from the 2014 produced the same as I explained? It has the correct BDMV folder and CERTIFICATE? If its something else, you can't expect the standalone player to run it as a BD disc.

This post should cut through the BS since here is the MD5/SHA-1/SHA-256 hashes of a CLEAN ImgBurn v2.5.8.0 installer ( SetupImgBurn_2.5.8.0.exe ; "3.0 MiB (3,101,913 bytes)")... MD5 = 4bf2b8f4b46385bfda4d65e423cfb868 SHA-1 = 6a3d20796e1fcd4169d5d339af6e491dcea3367c SHA-256 = 49aa06eaffe431f05687109fee25f66781abbe1108f3f8ca78c79bdec8753420 on a side note... there are a fair amount of stuff people post this kind of info for random program, but I suspect it's largely ignored as people just assume what they download is safe. NOTE: you only need to match to one of those as if it matches one, it will match the rest. I just posted more there as people can use whatever they prefer. but what Lightning UK basically said is correct, he only has so much control over things whether he likes it or not (same would basically apply to myself and the next random person). it's nothing against anyone, as like he said, it's just a fact of life. one has to take reasonable measures to ensure they don't install any program on their computer that could potentially be including unwanted junk in it. p.s. https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/imgburn.html (I checked both links here and they are good as ImgBurn has been downloaded there over 9.2 million times and even says on that site "ImgBurn on MajorGeeks is a clean installer without OpenCandy distributed with permission.")) ; they have the same one from a download I got years ago as it's the same hashes as what I am using (on my Linux system). but, as usual, if you want to be 100% sure run a hash check on it to make sure it matches what I posted above and then you can be sure it's clean basically.

It isn’t an attitude, it’s a fact of life. The internet is full of useful things but you must be careful how you navigate it. Not clicking dodgy links or running suspect files (no matter what they might be pretending to be) is fundamental to your security online. If you object to digital digest’s practices, you really should take it up with them. They actually host this website, so it isn’t possible for me to remove the link - which I will also point out is absolutely fine when I check it. Other mirrors may also rebundle the setup I gave them, they have to pay for the servers and their time somehow. Most would / should be transparent about that fact though - maybe by calling it ‘download manager enhanced’ or something.

@Blueflame, if you are not using Google Chrome, I suggest you download and install it. It will tell you exactly what it can detect the software is capable of (but that doesn't mean it knows everything).

I'm the "other guy" from the "other thread". You could at least remove the link now that you've been alerted twice. if you don't, it's simply because you're careless. They are actually naming it ImgBurn, fully aware of what they are doing, taking advantage of being linked from this site. Your attitudes are seriously lacking. As a software programmer, this would seriously offend me, as if stealing part of my own identity. My work is an extension of it. Regardless, removing the link now would just be common curteousy, which is also lacking here.

The DRW-24F1ST is a DVD drive. So, you don't need anything greater than USB 2.x. USB 3.0 for a DVD drive won't be any faster than if you used a USB 2.x interface.

I see. I wonder why it isn't first. Still, If I were hosting software online, which i am!, and/or providing external links to download my software, which I am not, I'd feel responsible to vet external links, and still it doesn't appear checked or removed.

Thanks for the i info -- so will the usb interface take advantage of the full speed of the ASUS drive?

Microsoft changed the way USB 3 gets detected after the last release of ImgBurn came out. So it only sees a device as USB 2 on newer OS's. Yes, USB 2.0 / 3.0 makes a difference, but it's purely a cosmetic issue in ImgBurn.

Hello --- I just set up an external DVD using the Vantec-DX enclosure and the ASUS DRW-24F1ST drive, The Vantec case is usb 3.0, but when I start imgburn it is listed as a usb 2.0 device --- did I miss something here? does it make a difference usb 2 or 3? Thanks

Great attitude, Lightning. All she did was run the initial file; she didn't accept the elevation prompt. Is it just too hard for you to remove your malware link, then?

Everybody needs to be responsible for their own actions. I've provided each of the mirrors with a 'clean' copy of the program. What they do with it after that down to them, and it's not my place to police it - they run their own websites and I have no say in what goes on. Most AV tools pick up on these PUA (potentially unwanted application) bundles, so I'm surprised it let you run whatever you downloaded anyway. If your setup is anything like the one in the other thread, your SO must have also agreed to the elevation prompt when launching the 'reward tool' or whatever it was called. Expecting ImgBurn and installing a 'reward tool' - red flag, red flag. I'm sorry you fell victim to this but you only have yourself to blame. Hopefully you can clean your system up easily enough.

I can't post in the "thanks for the virus/spyware" thread, probably because I just registered to post. My SO downloaded this program last night, using download link #1 from your website. She ran the same program the OP from the other thread received. I don't know how long this has been the case, but you might consider showing just a hint of responsibility for your part in pushing this information on hapless users. With regard to following comments from cornholio7, one of your moderators: "you're giving the blame because you downloaded something from somewhere else?, why didn't you download it from imgburn.com ? there's no spyware/virus from https://imgburn.com/index.php?act=download mirror 7" The person posting (as indicated) acquired this by following a link you provided - first in the list, no less - and your response is to blame them for "download[ing] something from somewhere else"? Why, precisely, should this person have known to avoid the bad link (or links) that you provide and pick another? This isn't just ridiculously illogical; it's irresponsible. Were cornholios 1 through 6 already busy, and did that somehow make you appear qualified to moderate anything? Heck of a job, brownie. As for dbminter's comment, ImgBurn may host site 7 but it directs users to sites 1 through 6 as well. Whomever runs this site might consider doing something about that. Thank you for your time. Love the program, hate the malware.

Mirror 7 is the repository that ImgBurn.com itself hosts. "Provided by ImgBurn"

As I stated in the first post, I selected the first link from imgburn.com (mirror 1). I still do not see any direct download link from imgburn.com. Why would you particularly mention mirror 7?
