Yes, it's inside that file. Just open it in a text editor and copy and paste the info from the failed burn into a posting window.

Can you post the log of that failed burn? http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=14632

Try with some "better" media and it should give you the max 8x your burner is capable of. (Verbatims are nice ) The media code UME02 is not very well supported by some burners.

It's not ImgBurn that is only offering the 2x write speed. It's your burner (firmware) that only supports them at 2x. A more "modern" burner should be able to write them at faster speed. A later firmware version might help. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Pioneer/DVRTD08A/files.html

No, that setting is not damaging your drive. That burner is a genuine Lite-On so it should be ok to scan with.

An old thread with a small test and I use OPC mainly only to find out when a burner is near it's dead. If OPC works when it's new, it will start failing near the death date, based on my crashed burners. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=6334 A disc scan on the burned disc. Only certain burners are reliable for this test. Mainly genuine Lite-Ons.

The stuff is more than what will fit on a single layer disc and ImgBurn can't cut it to two playable discs. Use a program like DVD Shrink or DVD Rebuilder to "shrink" it down in size so it will fit to one disc or cut it to pieces (without menus) with the first program. Both programs are free in the basic versions. There are also some other free ways of splitting a DVD Movie and retaining the menus.

Go with the ones that have the AZO labelled on the packages. Others can be "cheap" ones. (Not the genuine Verbatim dye).

The OPC history is already gone when you do a firmware update.

You need to get a DVD burner. The image is to big to fit on a CD.

Create a text file in a pure text editor (like Windows Notepad) and name it to something and let it end with .dvd Save it to the same place as you have your original iso file stored. Assume you create a file named ACME.dvd then it should have these lines inside it MediaType=DVD ACME.ISO then use this ACME.dvd to mount it. Replace the word ACME with the name of your created ISO file.

You need to burn the image to a DVD disc, not a CD disc as you tried with. Not possible with ImgBurn to get it to automatically put in on two CDs if the source image is to big.

No chance to read back the burned disc to the disk?

Are they in .WMV format? If so run them through DVD Flick to make DVD Video compliant files.

What format are the files in? Older DVD players might only play DVD video compliant files inside a VIDEO_TS folder, so you might have to convert the current format with a program such as DVD Flick or similar.

Either crappy media/dyring burner or the write speed needs to be changed. Could try to apply the latest firmware for that burner. http://www.firmwarehq.com/Pioneer/DVR-216R/files.html A log of that failed burn would also be nice. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=14632

Aone Plus media has used two different media codes lately. Perhaps the "old working" discs didn't used the Disc ID: RICOHJPN-D01-67 media code? You could insert one of the "old" ones and check the media code ID in the read mode.

According to post #3 in this thread it should be enough to do the advanced setting stuff. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=6131 Sure you picked the right string -- SONY DVD RW DRU-840A -- when you added the ID string in the Samsung tab?

Settings Build ->> Page 2 ->> Create CERTIFICATE folder (enable this option)

Can you post a log from such a burn? http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=14632

There is a later firmware http://www.firmwarehq.com/Optiarc/AD-7170S/files.html Try some slower write speeds - like 8x - instead of MAX = 16x.

It has no impact on the burning/verify stage. Only when you put the burned disc in a player for playing.
