[Burn issues....HELP!!!]

I'd say media is your problem judging by the error messages "failed to write sector"

have you changed brands recently ?, does it do this with other brands as well ?

[I/O Error; Fails to read Original DVD's]

It only started when I bought a new Sony DVD drive. I get it with DVDs I burned from home Camcorder . Are you sure it is a copyright thing??

 

home made video burned onto disc wouldnt be copy protected ( i would of thought) so maybe this points at your drives ability to read . what OS are you using ? vista ?

[Strange Filenames on PS2.]

General message to everyone

 

even if you've never had a problem with an older version before , consider that;

 

LUK works his nuts off trying to improve the program and adds features to it

 

the whole beta team burn hundreds of discs and spends loads of time trying to find problems with any new version before LUK releases it

 

YOU as the end user should'nt suffer to many problems with any new release,and IF you do, rest assured LUK will be on the case ASAP as will all the beta team

 

WE dont support older versions of the program, only the current version

 

bottom line is, no one does all of the above just for the fun of it so take advantage and use the latest version

[Problem Splitting ISO Layers]

i presume your trying to use single layer media ?

use read mode and copy to your hdd

then build mode and add 50% of the files ( use the calculator) and brun to a DV5 disc , then repeat with the other files

Bloody format wars , i "might" move up and buy a dvd player as its hard to find a stand alone Cd player these days

[Tech Spot : a bunch of copy&paste idiots]

But seriously, how the hell does he eat with that thing in the way?!

 

BWA HA HA HA , depends what your eating , its a bit like a brazilian doesnt get in the way i spose

 

/me wonders how no one else interpreted this the way i did ????

[Unable to burn DVDs]

with the right/decent media and a good external USB or Firewire drive you will burn discs all day at 8x , all the laptops ive had will only write at 4x max on the internal drive, but using external USB and Firewire drives i acheive 8x everytime, i dare say i could hit 10x if i bought faster media , and thats using -R taiyo's , if i went the +R route i dont know how fast i could go. but certainly above the 8x i get now

[Test burn alright, actual burning = Power Calibration Area Is Full]

Dont waste your money on the Imation discs !!

 

the only dual layer worth using are Verbatim, eevn if it measn ordering online PLUS you will get a better choice of media from a reputable online media supplier as opposed to a local store in your area..................I've never seen taiyo yuden discs in a store yet

[I think my burner is damaged]

if your PC is a dell , then you have the latest firmware on your burner, so that narrows it down to your drive just dont like the Ritek DL media

as you said, its crap, you've just been lucky that your other drive actually writes to it.

 

Suggest you get a verbatim DL disc and try it in the 4163b drive to confirm its the ritek media thats crap .

[burning problems]

a log may help as well

[Error Msg. Can't burn Help Incompatible format?]

what OS ?, xp or vista ( you cut the first part of the log file off)

 

humour me, set the burn speed to 8x instead of max and tell us what happens

[Disc never verifies...]

depends where you live ?

[Imgburn usage]

Can ImgBurn be used to burn data to DVDs other than when the data is DVD video data (vobfiles etc)?

For example, with lots of .jpgs, word .docs etc in a folder, is it possible to build an .iso with ImgBurn and burn it to DVD?

If it can, does it offer any advantages/disadvantages to using Nero to do the same thing?

Hey locoeng , whats a coaster ? is it one of these

Happy Birthday mate

 

[Problem during verification]

does it do it with all media, or just the kind you used in the log above ?. could be the drive doesnt like the media you used above

[Errors during burn, result is fine]

and if you slow your write speed down from MAX to say 12x , this will probably stop the info messages.

in other words, your HDD cant keep up with the supply of data the writer is demanding

[Error try to burn x360 iso]

there the babies

[Error try to burn x360 iso]

v1.14 is 3 updates behind v1.20 , so yes, your firmware had a lot to do with it

 

the ONLY discs to use for dual layer is quality verbatim with the Disc ID of MKM 001 I would say that verbatim E-media is probably a budget brand which is unlikly to have a good Ink/dye on it , hence the reason for getting Verbatim with Disc ID of MKM 001

[Error try to burn x360 iso]

verbatim and firmware

[VOB file too large]

you cant beat a large pair of BUP' s

[Burns not using all of disk]

Blame that Dr Who for all this, he started the time shifting thing jumping back back and forwards
