Yes well, when I used nero it always gave me a message with -Writing Lead Out and Finalising Disc. And Imgburn only gave me a -Synchronising Cache... and went directly ahead with verifying. So I got confused if it actually did finalise. Several searches in de forum only netted me logs with messages like --- Synchronising Cache... Closing Track... Closing Session... Synchronising Cache... Closing Track... Finalising Disc... --- And that got me questioning even more. Since I thought I was missing a few lines. But I guess that is just how my drive works. Thank you both for answoring me.

ImgBurn always finalises discs, so you have nothing to worry about Thank you for the quick reply and answer.

Hello, I have a small question. I recently started using imgburn. I tried burning a dvd-r which burned fine, but I noticed there is no finalyzing Disc or Writing Lead Out (in nero) in the log. By looking through the forum all posted logs have a line saying finalyzing Disc. So my question is is this normal? Did i do something wrong? Here is my log for writing this disc: I 14:38:54 Operation Started! I 14:38:54 Building Image Tree... I 14:38:54 Checking Directory Depth... I 14:38:54 Calculating Totals...
