LIGHTNING UK!

ImgBurn isn't going to automatically span the data between the discs. If your source files exceed the capacity of the discs you're using, either get bigger discs or manually split the data into multiple parts. Real Windows 7 bootable installation discs are only about 2 - 3GB in size, how comes yours is so large? I can't help with just that error line, please post the complete log - as per the pink box up the top

If your drive is failing to burn then either it doesn't like the discs you're using very much or there's something wrong with it. Selecting a different write speed may improve its ability to burn the discs, as could cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc. Personally, I'd just buy some decent Verbatim / Taiyo Yuden media and go from there. If your drive errored out during a burn, chances are that's why some of the files aren't readable - maybe they hadn't actually been written yet. Closing the disc isn't going to change that. In any case, if you want to attempt to close/finalise the disc, right click the drive selection box and pick Close -> Track / Session / Disc (in that order). Expect errors.

Does disc 1 not ask you to insert disc 2 once it has booted and done the first bit of the recovery? You wouldn't normally need both discs to be bootable. You can't tell if a disc is bootable by looking at the files it contains in Explorer. Load it in ImgBurn's 'Read' mode (Create image file from disc) and see if it lists 'Bootable' in the file system info within the 'Source' box.

You've got your double layer media profile set to DVD-R DL which is not what you're then attempting to burn to (DVD+R DL). So either you switch the media profile back to DVD+R DL (the default value), make a new ISO and then burn that or you just build + burn directly to a DVD+R DL without any intermediate ISO image.

Post the burn + verify log of that session please - as per the pink box up the top What model standalone player do you have? See if you can take a picture of the standalone showing disc contents from working / non working discs too please. Load your working / non working discs in IsoBuster and take a screenshot of what's displayed for each one please.

If those images I mentioned burn and verify ok, there should be no problem booting them - assuming you're doing things correctly in your BIOS regarding boot order priority.

Update ImgBurn, you won't get help with the mega old version you're using. You just tried to burn the ISO in Build mode, of course that's not going to work. You'd need to create a new ISO from the files contained within that ISO. So extract them somewhere or mount the ISO in a virtual drive and then build a new ISO by pointing Build mode at the VIDEO_TS folder.

That depends on your Windows setting for showing file extensions. The file would be called etfsboot.com, but you may or may not be able to see the .com extension when you look at it via Explorer. Did you actually try what I said about using a known bootable Linux Live CD or the Memtext86+ CD?

You'd have to ask LiteOn that question. It's the drive/firmware that does the burning, not the software. As for where to buy disc... any of the big online electronics stores I guess - newegg or whatever (I don't live in the US).

Post the log please - as per the pink box up the top.

Maybe it's the discs you're using? If they burn+verify on the PC drive, they should at least work ok in that (and it sounds like they do). That doesn't mean your standalone players won't have problems reading them though.

If the disc burns and verifies ok, the rest is down to Windows just not seeing the new disc properly.

We have no idea what you're working with file wise, how are we supposed to help?! If you have 2 discs that have been provided to you and 1 won't read properly in the laptop, make a straight copy of it in the other laptop and try again.

You can't fit more on a DVD+R DL disc than the drive thinks will fit... so no, it's not possible with just software.

You just need to follow the one and only Audio CD guide in the Guides forum. Forget about making an ISO, that's not possible for an Audio CD. ISOs cannot represent multiple tracks.

Your source file is corrupt / incomplete. Notice there's no file system listed.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. All you have to do is pick the VIDEO_TS folder in the 'Select folder to add' box. The program will take care of the rest.

Assuming the machine does actually have a working / connected burner, it looks like it's not currently available for use. Are you physically sitting at the machine? Does the drive show up in Explorer/Computer? If not, how about in Device Manager?

If your player doesn't play mp4 files, yes. ImgBurn just burns as-is so if you feed it an mp4 file, you'll end up with an mp4 file on your disc. You can convert said mp4 file to a proper DVD Video structure using something like DVD Flick or ConvertXtoDVD.

It's currently formatted with spare areas enabled by the look of it, so you just need to full erase it again having ticked the option. If it still doesn't work after doing that (and reburning something to it), try an original BD disc and perhaps a BD-R or BD-RE using a different MID/dye. For what it's worth, my Sony BD player has no problem with my BD-RE. Maybe you could exchange the unit for one that does what you need it to?

Yes, that's the bit I meant. You actually have to do a full erase after changing it though. The format command is issued to the drive when you do a Full Erase (or Erase -> Full as it is in the program's menus). When you say they play fine on your PC, how are you actually testing them? You'd have to be playing them as a proper BD video disc using something like PowerDVD or Total Media Theatre. Double clicking on a raw video file isn't enough / correct.

Please post the logs of you building the image and then attempting to burn it.

It looks like your drive has problems burning the cheapo 'CMC MAG. AM3' dye TDK discs, that's why the Verify operation then fails. All I'd suggest is that you try the other supported write speeds on that media, one of the other ones (4x, 12x, 16x) may produce a better quality burn than the one you're currently using (8x). Cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc may also help. What you're burning to the disc makes no difference. To a drive, data is data. Therefore, what you said below makes no sense.

LG drives have always had a built in 'overspeed' feature for BD-RE discs. They always burn at 2.4x rather than 2x - at least on the single layer BD-RE discs anyway. LG made the decision to do that so they must know it works fine. Your LG player may want discs with spare areas enabled / disabled. You'd have to reformat the disc with the option flipped to see if it makes a difference. Changing the option will effect the free space on the disc so you may have to adjust your authoring program to take that into account when creating the files you wish to burn.
