  1. If PgeEdit is creating the ISO you're then burning with ImgBurn, you shouldn't have a problem with a disc originally being a PTP one. PgcEdit will insert padding where it needs to so that you can still have a nice cell to position the layer break on.

     

    If you're not using PgcEdit, ImgBurn will inform you if it's unable to find a place to put the layer break. Being a PTP doesn't mean it will always fail... just it could do.

     

    To see if the disc is PTP, put it in the drive and look at the info window panel on the right within ImgBurn - or use something like DVDInfoPro and look at the media information.

    Sounds good. Thanks. :)

  2. ...The problem you're having with DL burns is that the images you're burning are from PTP DVDROM discs. You can't always burn such images onto an OTP disc because for OTP, Layer 0 must be bigger than (or the same size as) Layer 1. That is not true for PTP, where Layer 1 can be bigger than Layer 0.

     

    If the layerbreak position read from the MDS file is such that it cannot go on an OTP disc, the program has to attempt to move it. How well that works out is anyones guess!

    I'm a DVD+R DL user and I haven't had this situation yet. Will ImgBurn let me know if I'm trying to burn a PTP image on a OTP disc before it's starts burning the image? Or, can I tell from looking at the ISO (before I try to burn it). If so, what program can I use?

     

     

    Thanks.

     

    P.S. Thanks for ImgBurn. I'm using it with PgcEdit, Verbatim DVD+R DL and my DL disc copies are now perfect. Now, it's very hard to tell when my DVD players are switching layers. What a difference. Thanks again. :)
