Must be media fault, when i use Yuden this does not happen: TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S203P SB01 (ATAPI) Current Profile: DVD-R Disc Information: Status: Empty Erasable: No Free Sectors: 2.297.888 Free Space: 4.706.074.624 bytes Free Time: 510:40:38 (MM:SS:FF) Supported Write Speeds: 4x; 6x; 8x; 12x; 16x; 18x; 20x Pre-recorded Information: Manufacturer ID: TYG03 Physical Format Information (Last Recorded): Disc ID: 0@P-!-00 Book Type: DVD-R Part Version: 5 Disc Size: 120mm Maximum Read Rate: Not Specified Number of Layers: 1 Track Path: Parallel Track Path (PTP) Linear Density: 0.267 um/bit Track Density: 0.74 um/track First Physical Sector of Data Area: 196.608 Last Physical Sector of Data Area: 0 Last Physical Sector in Layer 0: 0 Performance (Write Speeds): Descriptor 1... -> B0: 0x00; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 5.540 KB/s (4x) Descriptor 2... -> B0: 0x00; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 8.310 KB/s (6x) Descriptor 3... -> B0: 0x00; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 11.080 KB/s (8x) Descriptor 4... -> B0: 0x08; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 16.620 KB/s (12x) Descriptor 5... -> B0: 0x08; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) Descriptor 6... -> B0: 0x08; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 24.930 KB/s (18x) Descriptor 7... -> B0: 0x08; B1: 0x00; B2: 0x00; B3: 0x00 -> EL: 2297887 (0x0023101F) -> RS: 22.160 KB/s (16x) - WS: 27.700 KB/s (20x) This is also verbatim, DVD-R 16x but from batches I know to be Taiyo Yuden. I've checked the MCC-004-000 discs, the code inde inside metallic ring seems legit. Anyway to force imgburn to force/revert to DVD+R ?

Hi all, This is driving me insane. I use Imgburn since version 1.x.xx. Lately when I try to burn a DVD+R (build mode) it always says drive needs formating. Of course it fails doing so, since the disc it's not erasable.
