[Disc formatting]

I was just going to edit my post.

My fault, I just confirmed it with a +RW but it wasn't obvious to me that these informations aren't stored on -RW media.

[Disc formatting]

ImgBurn queries the drive to get the current 'Formatted' status (amongst other things) and displays the result in the info window on the right.

LUK!, did you kick this information in current in 2.2.0.0?

I can't find anything in the info window saying 'Formatted: Yes' or 'No'.

[Save option for bitsetting]

Although I'm mostly burning with my BenQ 1640 now instead of my old LG, it's always nice to see that user wishes get implemented some day.

Added: 'Auto Change Book Type' option to the settings. This is only used for LG and Samsung drives. When enabled (default), it will make the program send the appropriate command to tell the drive to booktype the disc to DVDROM at the start of every burn - obviously just for Plus format media -i.e. DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL.

Thanks again m8 for an additional feature!

[Book type question]

I used a DVD-R and it burned as a DVD-Rom.

As I told you that isn't possible as bitsetting is only available for DVD+R(W) media.

Stick with high quality DVD-R media and you should be on the safe side.

Bitsetting (whether it's supported by your drive or not) is only available for DVD+R media.

[Backing up PS2 discs]

The first disc you've burned with ImgBurn was this also a DVD+R?

 

There are reports that the very first series of both PS and PS2 didn't except DVD+R even not with bitsetting.

To be on the safe side I'ld recommend to use DVD-R media instead.

[ImgBurn v2.1.0.0 Released!]

Thanks a bunch LUK! and all of you beta team members!

I do have to take my time to read the book, which you call the changelog.

[ImgBurn]

There are a lot of programs which can do this for you if your drive is supported, you can give Nero CD-DVD Speed a try.

[NEC 3550 VS BenQ 1650]

So, does anyone have any comments or suggestions to my delimma IF I want to burn a supposedly "topnotch" quality media at the it's 8X rated speed?

My recommendation is to turn Solid Burn ON for known medias if your dealing with DVD-R and to switch it OFF for DVD+R (which is the default).

These are my experiences with TYG02 and YUDEN000_T02 (both 8X) and the BenQ 1640.

Here's what you're looking for.

Works like a charm with my LG.

Okay I got it now.

 

Alex Noe's tool works like a charm! Thanks to both of you for your help.

[Save option for bitsetting]

Thanks LUK for the fast reply.

I didn't know that this is a LG limitation.

Sorry but issuing bitsetting commands during the burn isn't something I really want to do.

Sorry I don't completely understand. The option already exists except it can't be saved.

 

Thanks again for the link, unfortunately the search function is only allowed for registered users (never get the sense of such forum behaviour )

 

Edit: Thanks BurnerFreak for your link! This solved one of my problems. I will give it a go.

[Save option for bitsetting]

Hi,

 

it would be very nice if you could implement a save option for booktype setting. I'm working with a LG GSA-4120B burner and although bitsetting is working fine I have to set it again next time otherwise it's turned off.

Also I'm mostly working with the combination of ImgTool Classic and ImgBurn and in this case I can't change ImgBurn settings.

 

Best regards,

Rippraff
