LIGHTNING UK!

It looks ok to me.

I don't design the file systems, I simply follow the specs (as best I can!). Blame the ISO9660, Joliet, UDF guys for that. Your disc would be smaller if you didn't use UDF at all. And I assume you know that only Vista (and newer) machines can read UDF 2.60 by default yeah? Windows XP (and earlier) require a 3rd party driver to read anything over 1.50 (or perhaps 2.01?).

ok well if the MID is set to 12x, it'll burn at 12x in all drives. You only need to specify a drive + speed for that MID if it's NOT the same as the MID speed. i.e. MID speed is 12x, but you want a certain drive to burn it at 8x because it doesn't do a good job (compared to other burners in your machine) at 12x. Don't forget to change that 'MAX' on the main window to 'AUTO'.

No, you need the 'Write Speed' option in the main window set on 'AUTO' (or 'AWS' as it'll be shown in the next release). It would help if the column to the right of 'Description' was visible too.

I prefer the icon to match the program's name, not mine.

Do you use an english keyboard layout? The checks are very simple, either they keycode matches those that are allowed or it doesn't.

Looking at that I'd have to say you've got a dodgy (filter) driver installed. There are lots of values being carried over to the next 'buffer' that shouldn't be there. ImgBurn always zero fills the buffers before sending I/O so that should not happen... but it is here because a driver is messing things up. Your drive says it's returning '00 22' ( = 34) bytes for the 2nd command but your driver must know the 'READ TRACK INFORMATION' command output descriptor is 46 in length (and that's how much ImgBurn asks for), and it's making up the last 12 based on left over junk in its internal buffer rather than using the nice zeroed out buffer that ImgBurn provided it with. This in turn is making ImgBurn think the 'Read Compatibility LBA' is valid (because it's not zero), only the value is totally bogus and hence you're running into this problem.

Because you've got a HUGE number of files and therefore a lot of slack space (zeroes at the end of a file to pad out the sector), not to mention all the file system descriptors that need to be present (at least 1 sector each) in order to represent those files.

What does it say in the status bar? If that's a slimline drive, have you pushed the drive tray back in?!

Looks like your drive is returning bogus info to me. Eject the disc, press f8, insert disc and wait until it says 'ready' before pressing f8 again. Save the log and upload it here for me please.

Verbatim and TY are both great for DVD (and that's Verbs using the MCC dye or the TY dye - TY obviously always use the TY dye!). For CD I've had much more success using TY discs than Verbatim ones.... but if you get Verbatim's that use the TY dye, that's a different story (they're fine).

What does the actual error box that pops up say? Just CTRL+C when it's on the screen and then paste into your reply.

If it burnt any verified ok, there is nothing more you can do where ImgBurn is concerned. If it won't play then you need to look at it being something wrong with the image you're burning or the xbox not liking those discs.

It makes no difference because that only comes into play on the machine you install it on... not the ones you're going to use it in 'portable' mode on. If you want it portable on all machines (including the first one), you'd need to install it, make it portable, copy it somewhere safe and then uninstall it again. Once it's running in portable mode you can reset the settings to default and you should find some of the paths get changed away from the my document folder to the main program folder.

You need a conversion program such as DVD Flick or ConvertXtoDVD.

The player should be reading the UDF file system anyway for DVD Video so I wouldn't worry to much. That said, to be on the safe side you could mount the broken ISO and just make a new image using the virtual drive as the source folder.

It's created when you close the program. If you just open a command window and point it to the ImgBurn folder, then type exactly what I put below, it'll work fine - I tried it before I posted. You do of course need to have permission to create files wherever the imgburn.exe is.

You could always try changing the SPTD service to 'disabled', rebooting and then give it another go.

Try running: ImgBurn.exe /settings ImgBurn.ini /portable Then close ImgBurn, open ImgBurn.ini and add the line 'PortableMode=1' to it. From then on it'll run in portable mode by just double clicking on the exe or whatever.

I dunno then, sorry. Maybe you've got a bad filter driver installed? Bring up the filter driver feature via the 'Tools' menu, copy to clipboard and then paste here. Do you have any virtual drive programs installed? If so, which ones?

Try some DVD+R discs instead. If that fails, get yourself an external drive.

look in the statusbar when it's stuck, what does it say? a copy of the log (so far as it gets) would be useful too.

That requires 'multi-session' and ImgBurn doesn't support it at this time.

Because when you browse for a file, the OS kicks into action and tries to look at the 'empty' disc. Doing it the way I described means it won't.

The specs say DVD Video discs can't use Unicode.... so it's forced to 'off'. I have actually already added options to breaks the specs and allow unicode, ready for the release of v2.4.3.0.
