ImgBurn failed burns

Not sure what this could be relating to but I've been having trouble burning DL DVD's lately. This only happens when I have a large delay on either 'Power Calibration' or 'Setting L0 Data Zone' ocasionally ImgBurn will sit at either one of those for around 2 minutes, then it will start burning and around halfway it will be unable to write and give me the error, or the write will go through but when I verify it won't pass the verification. Not sure why this happens, I'm using RITEK-S04-66 DVD DL's with a Samsung SH-S183L burner. Never had this problem before and I've burned around 100+ DVD DL's with this media and drive and only got around 4 failures. For some reason it seems(maybe I'm just imagining it) like the problem ONLY occurs when it sits at the Power Calibration or L0 Data Zone thing. I just reverted to ImgBurn 2.3.2.0 to test if that has the same problem for me. I'll post part of the log and when it finishes in around 30 minutes I'll post the other half of the log.

Just wondering but would there be any specific reason for it to be so sporadic when before it was very consistent?

 

Also, heres the last part of the log since it error'd out early.

A write error is just a write error.

 

So for whatever reason, the burner was unable to write to those sectors (or ones before it - due to buffering).

 

The more you burn, the 'older' the drive gets. It could also be dust on the lense or a decrease in the quality of the discs.

 

For the 100 odd you've burnt, maybe they were only just ok and now that things are a tiny bit worse they're failing.

Disregard everything else, I'm just a retard. Just realized I had my OLD burner installed and not my new one for some reason...Swapped it with my Samsung burner and now I'm 1 for 1 on my burns so far...
