LIGHTNING UK!

This could be a tricky one. ImgBurn probably sees there's enough space for the dvd video side of thing in 1 layer and doesn't attempt to do anything with the layer break... But if you're burning to a DL disc, it's better to have equal amounts on both layers, in which case it would fall within the dvd video content. I haven't had any reason to do do hybrid stuff, so your situation won't have been tested very much... Or at all.

Load the program, press the F8 key to enable I/O debug mode (you'll get a message in the log to say it's enabled) and then go into the Tools menu and scan for devices again. Once the scan has finished, press F8 again to disable I/O debug mode. Save the log to a file and upload it please so I can examine it.

autorun.inf just makes explorer load it up when you insert the disc, that's not the same as being 'bootable' (outside of the operating system). A real bootable disc requires the correct files for booting. You provide ImgBurn with that stuff/info, it doesn't happen automatically.

I've PM'd you.

I made ImgBurn dump the output from the filter to a file and did a byte level comparison against the original WAV.

Yup, you're wrong.

Oooooh go on then, please share your theory! The changelog for the next release currently contains 7 'fixed' items. None of which are important.

Padding is just zeroed sectors. It would depend on what you pick for where you want the layer break. It'll have to add more padding to make it work in terms of L0 being bigger than L1. If you pick a cell that's early on in the 5gb image (say, 1 to 2 gb), it'll have to add loads. If you pick one that's around the 4gb mark, it won't.

Post the log please. If it says you have no writer, you probably don't.

Is madflac actually installed?

Try running the program once as admin and then close it down. Maybe then it'll be available as an option.

Settings -> General -> Page 2 -> Calculate MD5 Hash Values If it isn't calculating them in the first place, the program can't create an MD5 file with that info in it.

Different formats (and even structures - as per MMC specs) call it different things, that's all.

Whilst it has the RW logo, it also says 'DVD+R DL' directly below it. So I'd say it isn't rewritable.

What message is displayed in ImgBurn's status bar when you're in Read mode, that Samsung drive is selected and there's a disc (go with a pressed DVD-ROM for now) in it?

Ah, so there was something I was missing I'd never thought to do it like that...I like that idea. My 'buckets' are currently on a per directory basis and that's fine for 'most' situations. Of course, in a case like yours where you've got *loads* of files in the same directory, this method would make it more efficient. I appreciate you taking the time to help.

What are you seeing and clicking when you visit Mirror 1? Can you post a screenshot please?

It dynamically adds items to an internal list based on the findings of the 'FindFirstFile' API command. There's no way of knowing in advance (that I know of anyway), how many files/folders it'll be dealing with. It just traverses the tree. Each file that gets added for a given directory has its name checked for compliance with the file system and a new one is calculated as required. It then has to check if that name is unique and calculate a new one if not. I don't know how to improve upon that, so don't expect anything to change within the program - it's very unlikely! Also, how else do you check for uniqueness if not by comparing it against all previous items? Is there something I'm missing?!

Some issue with communications it would appear. Perhaps caused by a bad cable or port.

The hash displayed only applies to Mirror 7. 3rd party mirrors host a different file.

Writing to a CD starts from a negative LBA though. Maybe that's what it has an issue with? It's the only time such a thing happens.

Whatever the reason for the error, the error itself appears to be getting lost... or there wasn't really an error in the first place. Do you have the same issue if you use SPTI rather than ElbyCDIO? Don't use the enclosure if it doesn't work correctly with optical drives.

You need to configure Windows 10 itself. ImgBurn only adds itself as an 'option' for these things.

I think you'll find your drive destroyed your last disc. I'd offer to help, but you clearly don't want it... and with an first post from you like that, I'm not sure I really want to.

Can you use MediaInfo on the wav file one and post the details about it please? If the DTS is a 'raw' format (no headers etc to remove), you could try naming it as such. If the file has a .RAW extension, ImgBurn shouldn't try to process it via DirectShow / ACM. It'll then just read 2352 bytes from the file, ask the drive to burn it to a sector 'as-is' and then repeat over and over again until the end of the file/disk.
