Will do. thanks.

Total noob here. First time using dvd shrink set to automatically run imgburn. Never used imgburn before. New-ish PC that I've never tried to burn a disk on before. Actually that's not true, I can burn data disks. I'm trying backup some DVD's... Can't get past the write lead in stage. Not sure if it's imgburn, these Nexxtech 16x 4.7GB discs I have, or my dvd drive (just says DVD R/RW, no other name I can see). From the log, any idea which is the culprit? I checked the FAQ; the device manager shows DMA being enabled, but I'm not sure I'm checking things correctly. If you can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. Used to use Shrink/Nero but that was on my old XP machine. Anyhoo, the log: I 20:44:26 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started!
