Jill's nailed it for you . ImgBurn is a case of what goes in is what comes out , its down to your authoring or encoding program
-
The disks are the same ones I used before my dvd burner broke and they worked on my dvd player,
Can you confirm that the ink/dye code hasn't been changed by the manufacturer ?( not obvious untill you check what the media ID is)
the majority of modern ( recent few years) dvd players will play -R media ,so you need to eliminate the basics first , go with what Chewy said, and try some decent 8x -R media ( Taiyo yuden or verbatim), see what happens with that
-
with a decent quality media, and USB 2.0 , you should happily burn at 8x or maybe even 12x
if after updating your firmware and getting a better media, you dont get above the 2x speed you've beeen getting, have a look in the FAQ page at this post HERE and do what it says
-
blank media comes in 2 sizes, DV5 or DV9
DV5 is 4.3Gb and DV9 is 8.3/4 GB DV9 is also known as "dual layer"
if you go for DV then only use Verbatim discs
we cant and wont discuss ripping or anything related to ripping of any kind of discs ,for legal reasons im afraid
-
a few things
your DVD media is one of the poorest quality medisa there is ,
I 13:29:52 Source Media Type: DVD-R (Book Type: DVD-R) (Disc ID: CMC MAG. AE1) (Speeds: 2x, 4x, 8x)
HIGHLY recomend you get better stuff, like Taiyo yuden or verbatim. the cause of your drive reporting only a few MB's is most likely down to the media being so poor quality that it cnat even be read by the drive
are you burning by USB 1 or the faster USB 2 ? if its usb 1 , slow your write speed to 4x from MAX, you may hav to go even slower
there's a firmware update for your plex 750a ,your on 1.02 and its upto 1.03 now v1.03 from rpc1

[suggestion1: there should be a non-imgburn topic here, as many thread don't closely relate to imgburn "problems", but drive, disk, etc. problems and questions
Well this IS the ImgBurn support forum , and most problems people encounter are when they have or are using ImgBurn, so the Support. General or Chat forums would get you an answer to these questions
eg.: which is the more likely with older player, a) they don't play +s, or
they don't play DL-s...)]older players usually play +R or ROM . But its about buying players that all play everything to give complete compatability, same as buying players that will all play your favoured brand of media
And just for the record, used drive and media:Drive Information:
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-H44N RB00 (ATA)
Theres an RB01 firmware update for that drive if its an internal one
[Physical Format Information (Last Recorded):
Disc ID: RICOHJPN-D01-67
for dual layer DV9 , ONLY use verbatim , nothing else is as reliable

copied from the log window will do fine

the problem with the majority of cheaper media is the consistency of quality.
you can go thru several spindles without problems, then all of a sudden BANG , everyone is an error or failure.
The only way round this is to get decent media from the start , and stick with it. Slightly more expensive admittedly , but worth it in the long run.
I abandoned ritekG05 within 2 weeks of its release a few years back, whereas its predecessor ritekG04 was very reliable .
i went the Taiyo yuden approach and have only lost about 7 out of 600+ iscs due to faulty media.
The only reason i didnt use verbatim was my standalone players wern't to keen on it
-
try adding .iso to the end of what you entered in the destination box
so it reads
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Videos\movie.ISO
the clue is in the error message
-
I'd say it was the media, your drive just doesnt like it , try a decent brand like verbatim or taiyo yuden
-
an ISO is an image or a container if you like.
to be compliant, a DVD must have VOB's , IFO's and BUP files , if it didnt, the DVD wiouldnt play in your player.
so basically, your ISO did burn and put the containers contents on the disc
-
and that lfcrules chappie told me if i took my laptop to Oz it would automatically do the other side for me when i got there
-
i would suggest you look for a firmware update .
firstly, is it a Dell machine ?? if so , search there site for updates for that drive first
Its possible that your drive is actually a Benq 1650 with a phillips badge on it.If this si the case, you could try flashing it with the Benq firmware., check for verification about this before you try it though
If you search the net , you will find a few instances of people using the Benq firmware .
Its also worth a shot at cleaning the lense in the drive
-
Internal laptop drives are replacable , but VERY expenxive ,you will probably get 2 external burners for the same cost as a laptop dvd drive, and as long as you ahve usb 2 , you should happily reach 8x , but stick to 8x whatever PC set up you have, its more reliable
its worth doing as Chewy said above, reduce burn to 4x , or you may have to go as low as 2x ( despite what the manufacturer of the drive says it can do)
also in TOOLS>SETTINGS>READ tab , check the "set read speed" and set it to say 8x for data and see if that helps.
even though you errored out in the verify process, the disc may still be fully readable by a standalone dvd player

hmmm, a similar connection to mrs volvos cooking ...C-H-I-T in = C-H-I................
-
did you have a dual layer disc (9gb)in the drive when you chose the 3 folders ?
explain the scenario when this occurs ?, is it in build mode? , have you got Ib set to default settings ?, are you building to file or disc ?
more info would help , your question was a bit vague
-
we would still HIGHLY recomend you get better discs next time you go shopping, like verbatim or taiyo Yuden.
CMC MAG are known to be very poor quality and can become unreadable very quickly

You could also use Micheal Caines from Zulu: "Dont point that bloody spear at me!"(Mind you, I think I may have made that one up!!

you may need to wait for a firmware update from LG as they never seem to get it right first time with a new drive
as for the media, it HAS to be verbatims with the MKM 001 ink/dye , nothing else is as reliable
-
I'd start by popping the drive into an IDE port inside the PC, rather than on a firewire port and getting rid of the DVD-ROM/CD writer which is inside the PC. If you must burn externally, slow the speed to 1x.

I burn dv5's at 8x all the time using firewire with an external drive with no problems whatsoever
it plays with dual layer at 2.4x as well
