how do you watch a dvd with data on it in a software-dvd-player ? I meant if the image was created correctly... btw, you asked for a log, what do you say about it ?

is it possible to check the integrity of the image ? How do I do that ?

well, I'm using the Riteks for years now and never failed with 'em! Here's the log: I 23:50:33 ImgBurn Version 2.1.0.0 started!

Hi, I just installed ImgBurn 2.1.0.0 drag'n'dropped the image to ImgBurn clicked the verify-checkbox and gave it a burn. I was burning an .img-File (4.666.949.788 Bytes) to a blank Ritek G05 (DVD-R). Like mentioned in the topic title the disc is not usable and the verify after the burn failed. I used DVDDecrypter earlier, while I was getting errors by burning DVDs with other apps too I deinstalled Nero, RecordNow! and DVDDecrypter so I'm having ImgBurn left alone as a burning app, it seemed the features were enough for me. What do I have to do to test if my drive (Pioneer DVR-106D, Firmware 1.08) has crashed, since it's nearly 3 years old, the Ritek-blanks that I use or the software (ImgBurn) is not that good for my hardware as I thought ? While throwing 4 misburned dvds in the basket i wish best regards Machser
