You appear to be trying to copy a DVD thats copyprotected. Can't help you there sorry.

If you only have the VOB file, that is not valid for DVD-Video since you need a VIDEO_TS folder with VOB IFO and BUP files.

No imgburn burns files or ISOs *as is*, it does not in any way compress movies. You will have to find a program to shrink your movies down. Then you can use imgburn to burn your newly created ISO. Good luck.

I don't think the discs are fake, MKM-003-00 are fine. Try at 6x. I am assuming the firmware to your drive is up to date. If it still fails after trying at 6x.... Maybe someone more knowledgeable can help.

I don't know, however: I 16:44:00 Destination Media Type: DVD+R DL (Disc ID: MKM-003-00) (Speeds: 4x; 6x; 8x) W 16:44:00 Write Speed Miscompare! - Wanted: 3.324 KB/s (2,4x), Got: 5.540 KB/s (4x) Try setting your speed to either 6x or 8x, 2.4x is not supported by your media and is automatically sped up to 4x. If you are still getting errors, make sure that your drive is clean (use a lens cleaner) and more importantly make sure your firmware for your drive is up to date, then if you are still getting problems we'll try to go from there. Good luck. --edit I also forgot to mention, you are running 2.5.1, consider updating to the latest version of imgburn, 2.5.4.

LOL thats great! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5BQBKClJeY

Even if you 'burned successfully', I would check back in any other logs you may have. 1x is simply not supported by any of the DVD media, it will usually just be over-sped to at least 4x. You just probably never noticed the warning message in your logs stating that 1x for DVD media is not supported usually.

Well, you did set the speed to try and burn at 1x and that is not suppported. Try again at the proper speed, maybe 6x or 8x this time. I 18:41:23 Destination Media Type: DVD+R DL (Disc ID: MKM-003-00) (Speeds: 4x, 6x, 8x) W 18:41:23 Write Speed Miscompare! - Wanted: 1,385 KB/s (1x), Got: 5,540 KB/s (4x) -edit Also if you have used this drive for a while, you might want to consider cleaning the lens, the buggy sense area could mean your lens is a bit dusty. After that try again and see if it works, good luck.

Arrgh, Cynthia beat me to it.

In the spirit of the season, and here's hoping for a visit from Santa Bob! Merry Xistlessnessmess to all the other Subgenii at imgburn! Praise Bob! SubGenius Ultimate Xistlessnessmess Rerun Special - Hour of Slack #1287

Get version 2.5.4, LUK released this version that addresses this very issue you are having.

Never heard of SonikData, but since the dye being used is CMC-MAG-D03 I am not surprised by your results. Also make sure you are burning using the most up to date imgburn (2.5.4) and latest firmware drivers since that also can be a factor in your results.

If it is an ISO file from a bluray video disc, then all settings should already been taken care of. So yes burn it using the burn iso to disc function. Whether or not it plays in your bluray player depends on how you made that iso in the first place, it is not imgburn's responsibility to properly format the disc as bluray, that is your job though. Good luck.

First update imgburn to 2.5.4 and also try burning at 4x instead of 2.4x.

Well clearly DVD shrink did NOT shrink your image, go back and check your settings because imgburn is telling you that your image is over the capacity for a single layer disc. A single layer DVD-R holds 4,707,319,808 bytes A single layer DVD+R holds 4,700,372,992 bytes Your image is: 7,344,816,128 bytes Therefore you need to check your settings on DVDShrink since obviously it did not shrink to DVD5 (single layer). If you do not wish to use a more expensive disc (in this case double layer (DL)), then redo the entire DVDShrink process.

I 19:51:01 Source File Size: 7,344,816,128 bytes I 19:51:01 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: SONY16D1) (Speeds: 2x, 4x, 6x, 8x, 12x, 16x) You are trying to burn a ~7GB image onto a single layer DVD that only holds 4.4GB. You need to use a DL DVD, it would be preferable to user DVD+R DL Verbatim discs.

I have a cheapo Poloroid DVD player though that lets me switch TV systems with it's remote. I can go from NTSC, PAL and PAL60. If I put it on PAL60, the image is normal, if I put it on PAL the image is black & white and jumps around. I guess PAL60 is 60Hz, which corresponds to the electric freq. of US TVs? 110V @ 60Hz? Sorry for the slight hijack.

Ladies and gentlemen I am a retard! *facepalm* I should have checked the cables actually. I recently disconnected the burner to connect a neighbor's hd to copy their data onto their external, and I wasn't paying attention and while reconnecting the burner, I should have made sure that the secondary was properly set to DMA, instead it was PIO. *facepalm again*.. DERP!

I will check that thanks, but curious that this only happens after upgrading from 2.5.2. NO such issues then. *shrug*

Interesting problem with imgburn 2.5.3. I am trying to burn a CD, and for some reason now my system is extremely sluggish. The device buffer itself is no longer at 89%, but goes all the way down to 10%. And instead of burning at 16x, it goes down to 9x. I am burning a Data CD. I have never had this issue before, and I am waiting to see what happens when imgburn 'completes' the task. I don't know if I will have this kind of trouble with DVDs. The CD in question is TDK(CMC-Mag), however in the prior version of imgburn (2.5.2), no such issues like I am experiencing now... Also during verification the system again is slow, taskmgr shows CPU at 100%, and imgburn is what is shown as what is taken up the most resource. ; //****************************************\\ ; ImgBurn Version 2.5.3.0 - Log ; Tuesday, 07 December 2010, 15:03:20 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 14:46:52 ImgBurn Version 2.5.3.0 started!

Sweet! Already updated, thanks LUK!

You're right, but according to google MCC 03RG20 is also used by Verbatim, so doesn't this technically mean that he does have decent media though?

Have you tried another disc? Also have you made sure that your firmware on the burner is up to date? Have you had this burner for a while? If what you described still happens after trying a new disc and your burner is old, it may mean that it is dying.

It burned and verified fine, imgburn did it's job. Nobody here can really help you with your issue, only if the burn failed or failed to verify. Try to google your issue. Also: I 16:54:41 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: MCC 03RG20) (Speeds: 6x, 8x, 12x, 16x) W 16:54:41 Write Speed Miscompare! - Wanted: 5,540 KB/s (4x), Got: 8,310 KB/s (6x) Your media is rated at a minimum of 6x, so obviously trying to burn at 4x gives you this 'warning', it just means that imgburn automatically set your write speed to 6x instead of 4x.
