You can use whichever dlls work for you. look at the log window when the verify operation begins. It should tell you the read speed the drive is meant to be using. if it decides to slow it down for some reason, it’s probably related to the readability of the disc.

That sort of image can only be burnt to a cd. it looks like a data disc you’ve kept adding data too. put the disc in the drive and use Build mode to make a clean image from it. mount hat new image in a virtual drive program to check its all ok and then burn to a new disc.

Did you close the log window? That explains what’s happening. Next time you burn, keep an eye on it. The cycling of the tray happens after the burning has completed and it’s about to verify the disc.

Hopefully you have a CUE file to burn?

There are timestamps all over the file system - and not just creation / modification ones for files / folders, they're the obvious ones. Unless you actually want to read the osta.org udf specs and find out exactly where the date and time is used, that's probably all you need to know.

No idea but you can see the size of the disc I burnt doesn’t match the size of the disc you burnt… and it should have.

I had no issue burning and verifying the image you provided. I can only assume the problem is coming from the directshow filter your system is using for flac decoding. Maybe it's making the flac files (once decoded) look smaller than mine is and then the pregap at the end of the file (index 00) is in invalid space and it's messing the whole thing up.

I'm pretty sure some fields in the file system are calculated using the current systrem time. So it'll basically never be 100% identical. What would be the same though is building an iso, burning it and then reading it back to a new iso. It's only the 'building' bit that makes a different iso each time.

Read mode would have already done that if cdtext was present on the original disc.

You need index 01, that’s the actual playable track. what you’ve got there is a cue whereby the track oregap is at the end of the file for the previous track. I honestly couldn’t tell you if I’d have ever tested such a cue. Delete the index 00 stuff and it might work.

It doesn’t make any sense that it would be running into that error. It’s trying to read beyond what it’s just written.

Assuming you're talking about the physical discs themselves. It's like turning an apple into a banana. If, however, you have something burnt to a DVD+R that you want to burn to a DVD-R, that's something totally different.

A place to drop stuff. It's a little window that's meant to stay on top of other windows (when the program's main window doesn't), so you can drag+drop to it. That in turn is then supposed to add dropped files to the queue (if in Write mode) or source box (if in Build mode).

I will look into why /ERASE isn’t working for BD-R formatting.

I've only done it a couple of times (many many years ago), but I seem to recall it's actually the formatting process that enables defect management with BD-R. So you format the disc with spare areas enabled and then burn with 'BD-R Verify Not Required' disabled in order to have the drive use defect management when burning BD-R. EDIT: Yes, that's basically what I said in my post above from 7th March 2012. So you need to format the disc to enable it.
