Thanks Cynthia....Will the FLV format play on a dvd player without the encoding done by DVDFlick?

I've been having all successful movie burns lately but I tried to burn 12 .flv clips and as soon as ImgBurn started up it stopped and I got an I/O error. The ImgBurn log said "Failed to check for ImgBurn update!" and then "Close Request Acknowledged 13:24:38 Closing Down". I'm just wondering if a flv compilation is possible with DVDFlick and how to go about it..... Log is attached.

Cynthia....I just noticed in "Settings-I/O" it is set to SPTI

Well, I finally had a successful movie burn while I was asleep last night. Cynthia, I don't think I changed anything in Imgburn except for deleting the filters that Lightning UK suggested. I bought some Verbatim "movie" DVD's but I used a Sony last night. I wanted to make sure it was going to work before using the Verbatim's. I couldn't get the ones made in Singapore...they were made in Tiawan. Thanks again

Thanks Lightning UK....I deleted all the filters except REDBOOK & IMAPI. You said "You are telling it to close - by clicking the red X" but I'm talking about what the log says when I have a bad (unsuccessful) burn.

Thanks guys. I'm trying to burn Movie DVD's with Imgburn with a internal Matshita dvd-ram uj-841s burner in Toshiba laptop. I've had about 8 unsuccessful burns in a row. I get an I/O error. The log says "Close Request Acknowledged". I would like to know what is telling it to close. Here is Filter screenshot...

I've had about 8 unsuccessful movie DVD burns in a row. It seems like that started happening after I installed a ASPI layer. I removed the ASPI layer and bought a lens cleaning disk and that doesn't work. I get the following error message......

Thanks Techman .... I already went to that page and being a dummy, I didn't really understand it. I did notice that it mentioned DVD-RW so thats why I asked the question. To put it another way...(Does Removable Storage have to be enabled to fix my inability to burn DVD's?) And if so, how do I restart the snap in.

I still can't burn DVD's . Can anyone tell me if (Services-Removable Storage) is supposed to be disabled? If it is needed, how do I restart the snap in? Thanks

OK Thanks mmalves

I just had a successful burn with a Maxell DVD+RW disk and so again I tried a Sony DVD+R disk and again it was unsuccessful. Heres the ImgBurn log. imgburn.log

Thanks Lightning, That's just the thing. I don't close the program. That is what my log says after a bad burn. About 7 in a row now. I've only been getting about 9% if anything before it quits and I get an I/O error message. What would be telling ImgBurn to close?

I keep having failure burns. Can anyone tell me if this "Close request Acknowledged" report in my Imgburn log is normal or is something telling my burn to shut down? Thanks

mmalves, OK I'll try 4X. Yes, I've read everywhere that the Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden dvd's are the best. I don't have any yet. Even though I got the previous error message, I just tried to play a dvd and it played. Now I have to figure out whats up with that message before I try another burn.

After some more reading I decided to try to look at my entrys in admin tools and I came up with this. Can someone tell me what "restart the snapin" means.

Thanks for the reply's guys..... mmalves, I"m impressed that you knew this is a laptop..... My burner is a Matshita dvd-ram uj-841s, Firmware is 1.60. I found firmware ver 1.11 but I guess thats an older version. Do you guys think it would be a good idea to clean the laser with a cleaning disk? Also do you think I should try a faster speed of 2.4x or 4x? I've read that a slower speed is better for a successful burn. I don't see why I was getting mostly successful burns and now about 6 coasters in a row. Thanks again for the help and your trouble.

Thank you mmalves. I was having successful burns most of the time before I installed the ASPI layer. I don't understand why my log says "close request acknowleged" before even getting started. Do you think I should "check" WNASPI32 in my I/O settings instead of "SPTI" since I just installed that with my ASPI install?? It wouldn't help to go to a faster speed than 1 would it?

I just started messing with burning DVD's and using ImgBurn & DVDFlick and had about 80% success. Then I had about 4 failures in a row and a couple of days ago I installed SmartRipper and as soon as I opened it I got message that no ASPI layer was found so I did some research and downloaded that from Adaptec and installed it. My aspichk says that is OK. But now I've had about 5 bad burns in a row with the same error message. It was happening at around 9% completion and now it doesn't even get started. Can anyone tell me what this error message means and what I can do to fix it? I have XP and am using Sony DVD's and burn speed is 1x. Thanks
