LIGHTNING UK!

Are you sure you mounted a CUE file in Daemon Tools? The virtual drive is reporting those sectors as unreadable (not something I thought would happen from a CUE file). Is the image ok? Can you copy and paste it elsewhere? You may actually just be able to rename that .img file to .bin.

For whatever reason, your machine is returning a really weird error when the program asks your drive to burn the sectors. That error is not from the drive, it's from the OS. It could be a dodgy driver issue or something. Maybe try uninstalling the usb controller from within Device Manager (so it wipes out the controller, hubs and the devices connected to them), reboot and let Windows find it all again.

Post the log please

I don't dismiss stuff if people are sure they unchecked any offers they were shown. The setup exe is kinda old now and I have actually been contacted (recently) to say there's an updated 'clean' plugin... so maybe their last one had an issue. When it first came out, there was no such issue with 3rd party software installing when it shouldn't have - or at least not that I experienced for myself.

I believe this is covered in the faq.

Multisession stuff will probably fail if you have test mode enabled - which you do there. Please reset your settings back to default. The stuff you read on the internet about magic fixes for issues (i.e. changing the buffer to 72mb) are complete nonsense. Once Test Mode is off, burn a disc and post the log from that if it fails please.

Post the log please.

So that's 3 different drives failing to burn the discs and reporting a 'Write Error'? These things shouldn't be dependant on the OS as the burning is a drive internal process. Maybe try putting one or more of the drives in another machine and see if you have the same issue? Are the ones that are failing all from a new batch or anything?

I’m pretty sure there’s another option you can enable that goes beyond just showing hidden files. It used to be known as ‘protected system files’ or similar. There could also be junction points or something... maybe that’s where the extra stuff is coming from?

It seems the program doesn’t have access to where your source files are located.

Various windows API calls and a long lookup table

Do you mean the line after it says ‘ImgBurn x.x.x.x started!’ ? That’s your current OS - or as Windows is reporting itself. If you don’t mean that, please try to capture what you’re seeing as a screenshot or whatever.

The program queries the drive to find the size, so the usage you’re seeing is accurate. The drive only ever running at 67% will be firmware related.

Lots of info there, but not the one thing we actually ask for.... the log I'd say to get hold of another BD-RE DL and see if you run into the same problem. If you have the option of getting multiple discs, try and get ones with different MIDs. Maybe your drive will prefer one over the others. If it fails with all of them, you'll know it's most likely your drive at fault.

can you post the log please?

The error message is basically saying that the sector on the disc is unreadable. That problem is unlikely to be the reason for your players not being able to play the disc. I would say they don't like something about the way it's been authored - maybe that comes down to tmpgenc?

Some are hardcoded. That one would probably be an OS generated file, used when displaying thumbnails of picture files in Explorer.

Neither of those files are the actual ImgBurn setup program. All you've done is check something from an advert or something a mirror has repackaged (wrapped up in a 'download manager download'). The clue is in the name:- Setup_ImgBurn_2.5.8.0_2QxF20_dlm_3131459862.exe FileForum_installer.exe

Could be anything, low quality discs or drive needs cleaning maybe? Basically, your drive is having trouble figuring out or applying the correct amount of power to the laser in order to burn the discs you're using.

You're not going to be providing it with enough power from a single usb lead, it's desktop drive. So the reason it isn't ejecting is probably because it doesn't have enough power to actually do so. Buy a proper enclosure for the device with a standalone power supply. Oh and your other drive is a DVD burner, not just a reader.

Sorry, no, that isn't possible.

What happens if you press the eject button (The 'E' under the drive selection box - or right click the selection box and pick Eject) in ImgBurn? Any error message? Normally, if the tray won't open, it's because it's been locked by software. Turning the power off and on would usually reset that. If after doing that, the button on the device itself still doesn't work, maybe it's just faulty. What do you have providing power to the device? Hopefully it isn't just being powered by a single usb lead.

You’re trying to burn too much to the discs. The program did warn you about it.

You can't span with ImgBurn.
