If memory serves me right, more recently we use Sony-D21-00 as DVD+R disks and Liteon IHAS 324-98, IHAS 424-98, LG GH22NP20 as drives. However we also used Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim, TDK, Ritek and who knows how many more as DVD+R, as well as Sony, Plextor, HP as drives.
I used to have at least half a dozen clients a year (give or take) who were returning their DVD's because they were not playing in their machine or their relatives machines. Again, these were short DVDs anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 GB. I also have a couple of our own locations where the DVD players would not play the same disks. From my experience, the cheap built in DVD players into portable TV sets such as Ampex, Toshiba, Magnavox, Philips are likely candidates for these problems. Again, using the high DVD compatibility mode (such as the one in Nero and CDBurnerXP and others) solved the problem in almost all instances. Naturally, I have other rejects that are not associated with the 1GB limit but that is another matter. That's all the information I can provide and I thought it would be of interest.
I have many ISO files which are well under 1 GB. In as much as the configuration settings show: ISOWRITE_DVDPlusFinaliseDiscWithMinimalRadius=1 which means minimum 30 mm radius, the final DVD does not come out with a 30mm minimum radius, making it incompatible with quite a few players. Are there any other settings required or is this feature simply not working? Same ISO files burned with CDBurnerXP (high DVD compatibilty on) come out right.
There's newer firmware available for your burner (remove any disc and close the tray before updating then reboot after it's finished).
OK, thank you for the information. I will give it a try.
VER 2.5 FAILS TO WRITE ISO TO DVDs. IS THIS A BUG IN VER 2.5? IMGBURN.LOG ATTACHED. TRIED 4 TIMES AND FAILED 4 TIMES. WROTE ISO WITH ULTRA ISO AND IMAGE RECODER ON SAME COMPUTER SAME DRIVE SAME DISKS WITH NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER. COULD IT BE BECAUSE PortableMode=1???
