LiteOn DH-20A4P was the name before 9P59? If you enter the 'Read Mode' and put a blanc disc in the burner - can you cut and copy the Disc Info from the right part of the window. Something similar to this one:

No problems. I'll take it a bit slower. http://www.kephyr.com/spywarescanner/libra...sexplorer.phtml Can you see your burner in this picture - it should be listed as DVD/CD Drive How to find out your model of burner. Execute/run this program.

Not the log file. When you insert a disc in read mode the right part will show you info about the disc. Like this one:

Every time I answer something in this forum section I get my fishes warmed up. See if I have better luck this time. I had the same idea with Volume Label = file name I had no luck with my suggestion. But it would be a nice option, especially when you create DVD/Blu ray Movies stuff. The other part is dangerous. Assume someone decides to add a system folder and have it burned. Forgetting to turn the auto delete off will not be a nice experience.

1. Your burner passed away 2. It needs a cleaning Test this: Enter Read mode Put an empty DL disc in Post the disc info from the right part of the programs window

The old suggestion. If it had worked before - try a cleaning disc in your burner.

Can you see the burner in Windows Explorer? What model of burner do you have?

Perhaps better to use the program that is supported in this forum...

A cleaning disc for the laser head might also be worth a try.

Curious. This burner was released 2005. Hope you didn't pay a fortune for it. There is a later firmware for that burner. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Sony/DRU-800A/files.html Basic issue with the log - the burner do not like the brand of media.

I collected some LBA numbers for my Lite-On and it was around 1 out of 20 burns that was not filling up the whole disc that gave me one of the "lucky" numbers.

There is also a later firmware for your burner. http://www.firmwarehq.com/LG/GSA-H62N/files.html

There is a later firmware for your burner. Might work better. http://www.firmwarehq.com/LG/GSA-T50L/files.html

Hi and welcome to the forum, rnrunner! http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=11238

Yes, any program that can change the projects amount of sectors will work.

You need to "change" the source so it's something else than 1,924,368 sectors. Shrinking it or adding another VTS will give you another number. It's just certain "lucky" numbers that errors out. I doubt it's fixed in SB04. Lite-On hasn't been able to fix it even for their latest burner models. Running it through DVD Shrink and not changing the compression in full mode - will just give you a 1:1 copy with the same sector number. When the error happens in the final burning stage - I think it also skips the book type setting command - If I remember it right. I guess that's why the Mac will not read the disc. Edit: Yes - the book type function is never triggered after such an error.

Not sure I understand you. You see something else in the programs GUI? (GUI = the windows you see in post #1 in this thread).

The 118 is one I would wait to buy. It's a new generation of burner (another chip) and it's like new cars - never buy a car of a first models year.

You can use the Discover Mode and set the number of sectors to: and it will error on every burn you do. Add some sectors up or down, it will not error out. You can also take your source material and run it through a program like DVD Shrink and "shrink" it by 0.01% and the error will be gone.

As suggested in your other thread. Only a burn that fills the whole disc will give you a hint on the speeds used over the burning phase and a look at a Write Speed Graph file.

HI and welcome to the forum, eduro! It sounds as you found a temp folder - perhaps this one: C:\Users\*Your_Username*\AppData\Local\Temp (If it's Microsoft Vista). ImgBurn doesn't open such a folder by default - so I have no good clue to why it did or it was another Windows process that did that. If you look in the settings (Main Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> tab 'File Locations' - what folder do you have under section 'Image Folders'.

Ok, I did another burn using the same DVD-R media. This time it was burning faster than 4x. But I'm not sure if it burned at selected 16x this time!? IMHO your problem in this burn is another one. Your source material is to tiny to make the burner go up to the max speed (16x). Normally it's only the last 20% of the burn of a full disc that reaches those speeds. Do this test to find out if you can get up to 16x: Use the Discovery mode Select 'All Sectors' The the burn speed to 'MAX' or 16x (should be equal results) If you enable 'Auto export Graph Data' in the settings Write tab - you could look how the burn speed is over the total burn time - you can use BurnPlot (It's on the www.imgburn.com download page) to show it. Edit: mmalves did the short version...

I love to have it on the desktop! Better now?

There is a later firmware for your burner. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Samsung/SH-S202J/files.html Might improve the burns.
