It was already loaded in my PC....Windows XP Pro SP3 will all latest updates.

Sweet ! Thx.

The write speed graph looks like a Nec (Optiarc). The verify (read) speed is never above 6x. Seems to be an issue. Sure it's on 'MAX'? Never had/or have Daemon Tools installed? It's a LG GSA-H55L firmware latest v1.06. Never had Daemon Tools....of course have alot of item loaded on this PC, codecs, including CCCP, Pinnacle, etc. for audio & video editing. Overall it seems fast enough for me...it's an 3Gh Intel P4 with XP SP3 with 4GB RAM...I walk away at Burn and Verify and come back. I'm willing to trade-off a little longer cycle tiem for more reliable burn. I use Verbatim DL Singapore only DVD+R and for SL Verbatim DVD-R....haven't found Singapore made but Taiwan seems OK.

OK...so I tried my "new" process for DVD backup. DVDFabHD Free to HDD Nero Recode to HDD to fit to SL size ImgBrn Build/Write/Verify Burnplot to look at graph My IBG file name came out: enemy_at_the_gates_2009-07-10_4-03_PM_12x.ibg {Very Helpful} However, when I open the IBG file with Burnplot it is too bad that the Volume Identifier is not displayed....is it not in the graph file or does BurnPlot not pull ? Here is my trial test.....what do you think ?

It did not show the name...only date, etc.

I just found..............will this work as setting ? %V %B %T %I %S

Thanks......I'm just wanting to see the volume identifier (title/movie name) when I bring up the plot...the day/time really doesn't help....especially over time. You say there is a way for ImgBurn to output this to thr graph file ?....can you tell me where/how ?...still kinda a Newb. Also, you may want to put a rev # on your download postings....will help when someone takes a quick look to see if they have the latest.

Is there any way to show the disk label ?...is this even in the graph file ?....if not perhaps ImBurn can add ? I ask because I'd like to keep my plots for reference down the road and the IBF name of Burner-Day-Time does not really tell me anything. Obviously, I could rename the file but if this could be included in the display of Media info would be nice.

What is the bottom graph versus the top on my BurnPlot/ImgBurn graph ?

Please translate.....why ? Thx. I'm willing to learn...actually reasonably technical guy....just need a quick guidance of what the plot means. My goal is to look at these plots and say...."Yup or Nope....Burn went well and the disc should be OK for playback, or Coaster and Re-Burn." What are the two graphs themselves ?....what is the 2K, 4K, etc. on right of first graph ? How/Where do I see errors, etc ?

Thanks...found it....downloaded, ran and loaded a IBG. Have no idea what I'm looking at...... I attached PNG output of plot from BurnPlot.....any translation would be appreciated !!! I'm just trying to ID whether my burns went/go well on the disc (Verbatim SL DVD-R or DL DVD+R Singapore) without having to run the full movie in the Home DVD player.

Where can I download BurnPlot ?...I don't see it on the ImgBurn download page. Also, any quick tutorial on how to interpret the graphs ?

Where is the download link for BurnPlot ?...I don't see it in the thread....thx.

Thanks...sometimes the right things are in front of your face to miss. I feel so stupid.

That one can show if the burning is somewhat ok or the graphs are jumping around to much depending on a crap burn. You can attach it to a posting window here. The bad disc I did with Recode.......but you mention graph data....I assume if I use Recode for SL future efforts to disc, then ImgBurn or ImgBurn for DL.....this generates a graph ? If so, how do I read the graphs on the burn at that point and interpret ? Thx.
