legacy Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I have new Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL discs. The ones with the purple dye. I've tried burnig ISOs that have been extracted using both DVD Decrypter and ImgBurn; both with no read errors. I always burn using 2x. I always choose the MD5 file Sometimes the disc gets to 100% then fails to finalize, sometimes it gets to 100% then does nothing overnight, sometimes I get errors that fail numerous retries. I included a screen capture of one of the errors. Any help is greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Try closing it again manually. Click 'Tools' -> 'Drive' -> 'Close' -> 'Track/Session/Disc'. Do all 3, in that order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 It's been burning well now. 10 duds total though. I'm having more success with DVD Decrypter than with ImgBurn though, I found that weird because i thought that they were pretty identical programs. Thanks for all the help.

LOCOENG Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Imgburn should actually be more reliable since it is seeing support whereas the latter isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 DVD Decrypter didn't look for / see these errors. It's new code within ImgBurn. They'll still be there in both copies but only ImgBurn actually tells you about them. Oh and yes, for the burning part the two programs are very much identical.
