LIGHTNING UK!

EDIT: Ah but you might have hit a more general bug that I just fixed in 2.3.2.0 that calculated the sector size used in the image incorrectly. I don't think it being a small image was the problem at all. Try 2.3.2.0 and let me know how you get on.

That's doesn't help I'm afraid, they're both DVD-R discs! You need to get the info from a DVD+R DL you've already burnt.

As usual, you can download it and view the changelog by visiting the main website http://www.imgburn.com/

No problem here. Perhaps if you provide a log I'll be able to help? I 01:17:23 ImgBurn Version 2.3.2.0 started!

So what files do you see in the VIDEO_TS folder? Can you play the disc on your PC? Maybe your TV's DVD player just doesn't like the media you're using?

I was just looking at that, but no, it won't. I need a unicode one.

Number them 01, 02, 03. It's a text sort, not a number sort. The space character has a lower ascii value than a '1' does.

Click the little button with a picture of a book on it. It's down the bottom right of the main ImgBurn window (possibly on the 'Device' tab if you're in build mode). The go onto the LiteOn tab and change the eeprom settings for the various media types so that DVDROM is selected.

Sorry, it's a glitch in 2.3.1.0. (my bad ) Gimme 12 hours and there will be a new 2.3.2.0 release.

Nope, I dunno what you mean. I just opened up 2 instances of ImgBurn, both pointing to the same drive and then tried to burn something with one of them. I got the 'unable to lock....' error as expected.

That's just not possible with how the entire thing works. ImgBurn's build mode is basic (yet highly configurable?!). It wants an existing folder structure to burn rather than you making up a pretty one in a tree as you might do in Nero. If you need that sort of functionality, you need to stick with the big boys.

Doesn't work in what way? I don't remember touching it! The only thing I might have done is fail silently when specific error codes are returned - but of course if it doesn't error out in the first place, that doesn't come into it.

Try doing the booktype stuff and setting it to DVD-ROM for when you burn DVD+R and DVD+R DL discs.

That's fine, I might even release it tonight!

I have no control over the speed the drive returns to using, it'll return to whatever speed it wants to. If you watch the main buffer buring a burn, does it keep moving? It should be rock steady at 100% the whole time - hdd transfer speeds and access times far exceed those of your burner.

Assuming you've checked for a firmware update, try cleaning the drive's lens. It appears to just be having problems burning to those discs. If all else fails, you might need to start looking for a new drive.

When you put the disc in your PC, does it have a VIDEO_TS folder if you look at it via 'My Computer' / 'Explorer' ? It's always helpful if you post your full log of the burn / verify. It saves us guessing lots of stuff.

Damnit, it was because of the new FAT16/FAT32 detection code. On some images of certain sizes, it could get the sector size wrong by matching a signature code earlier than it should have been. I guess I'll be releasing 2.3.2.0 VERY soon then!

Hmm ok, I've seen a similar report about an image being found as 2336 elsewhere so I will look into this asap. Thanks for reporting it.

I'm sure you could manage a screenshot / picture though? Or a copy of the log (Copy + Paste it) ?! Failing that, type in your native language and I'll get Google to translate it!

Personally I'd just extract it from the real xp bootable cd!

Tsk, tsk, you know should know better than to put work before your forum duties

Silly me, I didn't force the one to remove the file version, just the one to allow files without extensions It's done for the next release.

You don't need to use the bustrace program now, I added a similar feature into ImgBurn under the Tools menu. To change the buffer, click Tools -> Settings and switch to the I/O tab. On there you'll find a 'Buffer Size' slider bar thingy. As for the firmware update, it's just like any other program. You download the firmware file and run it. It'll detect the drive and just ask you to confirm you want to update it - to which you simply press the 'Yes' button (or type the 'Y' key). You can download the update for the 112D from here: http://wwwbsc.pioneer.co.jp/cgi-bin/www1/d...12D_FW115EU.EXE (Just click 'Agree' at the bottom of the page)

lol yes that's one way of doing it I guess! If the two markers aren't in there, none of the settings get changed because it doesn't attempt to parse the IBB file for them. I'm not sure if the way you're using it is 'by design', but so long as it works! lol
