This started under 2.5.4.0 and is still happening under 2.5.5.0. ImgBurn recognizes my blank disk, TYG02 and Verbatim RW, and starts the write process. When it gets to the end a notice comes up saying 'cannot synchronize cache incompatible medium'. If I say retry I get the same thing, if I hit continue sometimes it completes the disk and the disk plays fine in my dvd player. Other times it just continues saying incompatible medium. This is the last 25% of the same batch of TYG02 which have always been fine. The Verbatim RWs have always worked as well for the last year.
Here is the log:
