Update your burner's firmware. Apparently my dvd writer no longer writes with any software. I tried with 2 other tools and in both cases I received a satisfactory note of 'operation completed successfully', but they were talking about blank disks... I guess this may be the reason. Is there someway I can verify the hardware of my writer?

1- That is the only media available now. 2- Shall I go for something 2X, anyway during the whole writing it never exceeded 2.4. 3- This time I will check both places where verify is written. 4- Is this "I 16:12:52 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: MBI 01RG40) (Speeds: 3x, 4x, 6x, 8x)" line tells us the appropriate speed to be selected? Is there anything else I should consider before the next attempt? Cheers R

I have to do little correction with what I posted yesterday... So when I got a blank disc after processing with ImgBurn, I repeated the process one more time and the result was identical. Then I took the dvd and tried to write with windows dvd maker. The setup was allright, I got no warning or no error, then after 6 hours of writing process it failed saying 'dvd can not be created'. Today I took the same dvd and tried once more with ImgBurn and this is what I got... I 09:49:45 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started!

Hi all I am new, yesterday I downloaded ImgBurn and followed every step as mentioned here How to write DVD Video files directly to single layer media using ImgBurn at the end I even got the message 'operation completed successfully', but the dvd was still blank. With the same dvd I tried to write another video using windows dvd maker and it worked fine. Can anyone guess what is wrong? Cheers
