Thanks! I confess that I'm unsure, but I can't seem to find it. Do I need a driver or firmware or just a new drive? I just remembered that I have a dvd writer/reader on my old computer, so I'm just going to transfer it. Thanks, though!

Ok, so I am being told: device not ready (medium not present). I assumed it was the drive, so I found the firmware for it, but the program still isn't recognizing the disk. Here is the log: ; //****************************************\\ ; ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 - Log ; Tuesday, 10 February 2009, 22:18:53 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 22:18:04 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!

Actually, have you changed the settings ? Usually that says "Max"...... if you have been fiddling a bit you might want to restore the default options under Help Yes, I changed them because I read that that might be the problem, what is the best speed?

There's firmware FS0K available for your burner. Remove any disc and close the tray before updating. Reboot the computer when the update has finished. Even though it may work, your burner is old and might not be doing good burns on newer media, so you should think about getting a new burner Thank you! I'd like to get a new one but just can't afford it right now. Hope it works!

Here's all my logs from today(I've been busy ) Hope it helps, and thanks! : ; //****************************************\\ ; ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 - Log ; Sunday, 14 September 2008, 20:24:41 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 19:22:58 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!

I'm a little new at this, but what exactly is supposed to happen when you burn an image file to a blank dvd using imgburn? Is it supposed to play on a dvd player? I'm unsure what, exactly, this function is for.

Well, I'm a newbie, and I'm having some trouble with my dvd playback. I'm basically trying to make a backup copy of a movie, because I watch it a lot and I've had to replace it before - nothing illegal, just want to clear that up. Anyway, I used the DVD Decrypter to copy the video_ts folder to my hard drive, not going to go into detail cause that's against the rules, but it worked smoothly. Then, I used ImgBurn to create the dvd (I followed a guide for this), and it seemed to go fairly well. Then, I tried to play it in my Dvd player, and it skipped and jumped and the picture was all scrambled. I looked online and followed the suggestion of using a slower write speed, which I did, the slowest one (1x), and it worked a little better but not much better. I'm using what seems to be a recommended/popular blank dvd-r as well, a Verbatim 8x single layer, but my hard drive is a little old. I also tried several different movies to see if that might be the problem, but I'm still getting the same results. I'm not sure what it is, exactly, and I tried a few times, but mostly it just seems like I'm wasting dvds, time, and money. You guys ask for the logs a lot, so here's the most recent: ; //****************************************\\ ; ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 - Log ; Sunday, 14 September 2008, 00:11:24 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 00:11:17 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!
