LIGHTNING UK!

I don't foresee there being any other changes made now, no. The download page has been updated with the 2.5.7.0 files (but not put live yet) and I will update it with 2.5.8.0 ones as and when I have a few to do.

Success / failure is down to your drive/firmware/media combo. If a working combo stops working then it's probably because the drive/media are starting to age and are no longer in tip top condition. Obviously the software itself never changes and what works one day will work forever. It doesn't deteriorate over time like hardware/media can.

It's only a bit different when writing a CD-TEXT leadin - because the program has to do a bit more work. Otherwise, it's all down to the drive.

Turn the PC physically off and on again and the proceed with a normal burn. Make sure you enable the Verify option so the program can check to see if the disc was written correctly.

Your car CD player is picking up the song titles on a disc that doesn't even contain that info... so it's not even reading them from the CD and that's the problem here. The only way to record song titles to a CD-DA disc is via CD-TEXT and ImgBurn is writing that correctly, your car CD player just isn't reading it.

Send it back and buy a Lite-On/Asus. The 'Force Hypertuning' option seems to be what makes the overburning work and the Samsung drives don't support it.

It looks like your drive has a problem with 'SONY-S11-00' discs (or maybe just that one if it's dirty/scratched). Try some others.

No problem here with an Enhanced CD.

You can't wipe a 'write once' disc. If you don't want what's on it, snap it in half. If you want to use ImgBurn with those discs, stop formatting them. ImgBurn wants empty DVD+R discs, not formatted ones.

The defaults work fine and the program typically tells you when you've messed something up.

You need to get your OS to show file extensions and then look at the full name of the file. I can't help you without having all of the info. Bundling a few files up inside an ISO (they're like a box really) doesn't mean the ISO will just play. And being like a box, you don't convert an ISO to a VIDEO_TS folder because the box would already contain the VIDEO_TS folder. You should start again from scratch, working with your AVI files. They're what you want to add (together) into DVD Flick and create a new VIDEO_TS folder from. Then just burn the VIDEO_TS folder as per the DVD Video guides.

As your drive is still complaining about 'write errors', I'd say to give some better (TY) discs a try if you have access to some. The program only reports what the drive returns so there's nothing more I can tell you really.

The guide is still valid. Go into build mode, drag the video_ts folder to the 'source' box, burn.

What sort of image are you talking about? Some pictures? Like I said, pictures aren't (disc) image files. Don't confuse the two just because they have similar names. Disc image files are typically ISO files. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_image

It's not the writing of the disc image file to disc that's the problem here, it's the format of the disc image file in the first place. Please note that disc image files are nothing to do with (not the same as) picture image files. DVD Flick will convert your video files (avi, wmv etc) to DVD Video format (a VIDEO_TS folder). You then burn the VIDEO_TS folder it creates (containing IFO/VOB/BUP files) with ImgBurn using one of the many DVD Video guides - or DVD Flick can even load up ImgBurn and do it for you automatically.

You're just burning the files as files (please refer to the last line of post #4). Windows DVD burner probably converts your files into a DVD Video disc. I'm sure Explorer will see both files on the disc, you'd just need to select each one in turn to play it. If you want a DVD Video disc rather than just the 2 files on a disc, use something like DVD Flick or ConvertXtoDVD to turn them into the correct format.

Ok, if you're in 'Build' mode (so look at the 'Mode' menu at the top of the main window), I don't see what the problem is with selecting 2 files and adding them to the source box. Whatever's in the source box is what gets burnt to the disc. Post the log so we can see what you're doing please. ImgBurn is not a transcoding / conversion / reauthoring tool. It burns exactly what you give it, 'as - is'.

When attemping to overburn a DVD+R DL, stick to the decent Verbatim MKM-001-00 / MKM-003-00 discs.

Are you in Build mode? If you want a DVD video disc that will actually play, you need to provide ImgBurn with a set of DVD Video compliant files. There are guides for burning such discs in the Guides forum if you aren't sure on how to actually use the program.

This issue has been fixed (ages ago) ready for the next version (well, fingers crossed anyway!) As for the 'write error', try slowing the write speed down a bit - like to say 24x.

It already does

There is only 1 format... CD-TEXT! There's nothing else embedded in raw CD-DA data and that's all you've copied onto that new disc that's showing song names on your car's CD player.

Your car's CD player must be getting the info from elsewhere (a database or something) as there's no way in the world the copy of the disc would have CD-TEXT info on it. As such, maybe it doesn't read CD-TEXT info at all.

Well I have no idea how that's possible as there's nothing in the CUE or log to suggest the disc contains/makes use of any CD-TEXT! Discs with CD-TEXT usually have the logo on the case (or label). http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CD-TEXT_logo.png
