LIGHTNING UK!

If you've burnt audio files with the program in Build mode, you've made an MP3 type disc (technically just a data disc with audio files on it). Playback of such discs is down to the individual player. Some will support them, some won't. Some may not support the type of audio files you've burnt either. When you follow the Audio CD guide and burn the audio files via the CUE method, the program creates a proper Audio CD that should be compatible with anything that'll play Audio CDs. There are no 'files' on such discs - even though Windows / Explorer might make you think there are, by displaying a .CDA file for each track.

Files, file system descriptors etc don't start and stop on 64KiB boundaries, they start and stop on sector boundaries. So you can hardly call that value useless! You only use the block size at the very end of the image for descriptor placement.

It would only read what the drive reports has been 'used'. Of course, when talking about this stuff, you have to ignore double/triple etc. layer discs. Unused space on those could be in line with used space on other layers - whereby scratches will render the disc unreadable.

Maybe you'd like to try posting that again.... all you've done is copy and paste the 'forum rules' from the pink box.

This thread is about DVD+R DL media, not BD media

You'll need to buy the correct drive to burn those oversized images.

Mode 2 is only for CD.

No, that option only turns off the quotes / one liners.

It's the statusbar messages option in the settings. On the general tab I seem to recall.

Read the pinned topic about double layer discs. Don't mess around with the hardware read error retries setting either.

What's the message in the statusbar at that point? Something, somewhere, has got stuck... probably due to what's been said in the posts above this one.

I have no clue, sorry. Sounds like you clicked on an advert rather than the actual program download link/button.

I have nothing to do with the 3rd party mirror sites.

I'm pretty sure there's a guide for this in the guides section of the forum.

Are you 100% sure it's new and has never been used before? Your drive certainly thinks there's something on it.

Your log file shows the verify speed has been set to 4x. Go into verify mode and correct it.

You'll have to try different discs then.

Try the other speeds your drive claims to support burning those discs at. If it still fails to produce a decent burn, try some different (MID) discs.

Your discs do not have the correct MKM-003-00 MID, so the double layer 'pinned' thread still applies. The program saves the log by default. You can access it via the Help menu.

It should be fine.* *When upgrading from an earlier version, the installer does reset certain settings if they'll cause an issue with that release. ImgBurn has only ever been a single exe, so there are no other files to worry about - if you ignore the previewer tool and the sound files.

Mirror 1 is fine. You just have to click the actual download button rather than the advert... which of course could download anything. The one in the green box, positioned above the Facebook widget, is the one you're after. Mirror 2 seems to have started forcing a wrapper on you. They never used to do that. Notice the name of the file it tries to download is 'FileForum_Installer'. If you cancel out of what it initially starts to download (assuming your browser is set to prompt for a location to save to), you can then click the 'click here to begin the download' link and get the right download.

I'd be amazed if it can't decode the audio formats you've mentioned. The specs for that model specifically say it can. I assume you've checked it's running the latest firmware / software?

ImgBurn is just a burner, it doesn't convert your video files. If you want it to burn a DVD Video disc, you need to feed it a set of DVD Video files.

How many failures have you had? Your drive/system just seems to have got stuck. Maybe the drive needs cleaning / replacing? Please do no go by what you read on the internet or see in YouTube videos. Setting the buffer to 73MiB makes absolutely no difference to any errors your drive may or may not throw out. Right click the drive selection box and pick 'Family Tree'. Close the box that comes up and then copy + paste everything from the Log window please.
