Hi - "Check out the IBG graph and see how it looks" How do I select the graph to be viewed? I believe I found the files with graph data in IBM Burn. I clicked on it and Windows XP asked me what program I want to use to open the file, so I selected IMG Burn as the program (the executable), however I get an error message from IMG Burn that it can't display that info. Am I doing something wrong? I'm going to scan the disc tonight when I get home as mentioned in "post 6" and see what it comes up with. You mentioned that in the future I should "verify the burn", however I did have the "Verify" box checked. Was I suppose to do something else after it indicatd that the burn was successful?

OK I believe this is it, the movie title matches what I recorded. I 23:06:24 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started! I 23:06:24 Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 3) I 23:06:24 Total Physical Memory: 2,094,556 KB - Available: 1,481,884 KB I 23:06:24 Initialising SPTI... I 23:06:24 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 23:06:24 Found 1 CD-RW and 1 DVD

Does this provide any insight? I took a look again. I have Verbatim for normal DVD's, but Memorex for the DL disc - sorry about that. That could be contributing to the problem based on what you said, however I've recorded on it before many times with no problem. So could having selected a less than adequate layer break - could that have contributed to the problem? 23:30:08 Using Layer Break LBA: 649343 -> 2056592 (VTS_01, PGC: 1, Chapter: 10, Cell: 10, Vob/Cell ID: 3/10, Time: 00:29:49, SPLIP: Yes -> No)

Make sure you are using good media. We recommend Verbatim, +R, 2.4x, MKM-001-00, Made in Singapore. Do a scan of your burn and see if there are any abnormal spikes. Regards How do I Do a scan of your burn and see if there are any abnormal spikes? I'm using Verbatim DL, recording at 2.4X. Not sure if made in Singapore. How do I determine that? I've normally not had any problems when there is a layer break to chose from that Good or better. It seems is happened when all the breaks were noted as Average. Many of them had 50%, I wish I remembered which one I selected, but I might have selected one that had the highest LBA numbers listed.

What is young padawan?

In IMG Burn, when I get to Create Layer Break Position I get 21 suggested layer breaks and all are with the silver star ( Average). How do I know which one to pick? Can I use the Padding or % info to pick one? I burned a dual layer disc yesterday and selected a arbitrary position from the 21 average listed and even though there were no errors, retrys, etc., with a successful recording message, when I played the DVD it had slow, stuttering playback for about 2-3 minutes after about 30 minutes, then the movie continued perfectly with no problems. Usually I get one of the stars and select the best one - never have had a problem before. Any help suggestions would be appreciated.
