Hi all,
I was hoping to be able to sort this problem out myself but after much googleing and searching I have relented and decided to come straight to the source.
It concerns Splip on Dual Layer burns.... before any one ask's .... yes I only ever use Verbs.
If my iso i am going to burn states this:
LBA % File/VTS LU PGC Chapter Cell V/C ID Start Time Splip
1965152 50/50 VTS_03 NA 1 10 19 2/1 1:09:10 NO
Blue Star for LBA, as it is the only one available, I have tested these "as is" and the LB is very noticable at 1:09:10
so I thought lets try out the Tick in "Seamless"..... I am slightly bewildered by the warning of "You should only enable this option if you know for a fact that your player does not need the layer break cell to be marked as non-seamless. are you sure you want to enable this?
Does this mean that your burnt disc is telling the DVD drive that "Yes, I am a seamless Disc" ??
any way back to my point even if i place a tick into seamless I always get this :
I 10:45:00 Write Mode: DVD
I 10:45:00 Write Type: DAO
I 10:45:00 Write Speed: 4x
I 10:45:00 Link Size: Auto
I 10:45:00 Lock Volume: Yes

I 10:59:28 Writing Layer 1... (LBA: 1965920 - 3844264)
Why if I have put a tick into "seamless" I get "SPLIP" flag not set? Sorry if I have this totally wrong, maybe there is nothing wrong at all but wouldn't "SLIP" flag say SET for seamless, please except my apologies if I have got the wrong end of the stick.
The burner is an LG GSA H55N, and so far no coasters at all.
Imgburn is v 2.5.2.0 (but I don't think this will have any bearing on the problem, as it's been the same for the last couple of upgrades.
This is always the same whenever the SPLIP says "NO".
I would really appreciate some help or guidelines on this one chaps, could it be that I have not set something up within the Tools/Settings correctly.
Thanks all
