  1. A little tip if you are burning multiple AVI files to a blank disc & want them to play in order, number them. One option could be:

     

    001 Whatever information you want.AVI

    002

    003 etc.

  2. I was hit with this problem for the first time today. After trying a couple of things, without success, I decided to go ahead with the burn anyway. I have not scanned the disc as of yet but, have checked it for playability & it's fine, no problems. Then a Moderator at another Forum referred me to your solution, as I still had the file, I decided to give it a go. It was very easy to follow & I have checked the output as far as opening ImgBurn & actually seeing the layerbreak shown. So, thank you for adding another useful tool to my arsenal that I can use when needed, it is appreciated. :flowers::thumbsup: BTW, I have the log for the burn I went ahead with, I can attach it if wanted.

  3. The only reason I am giving this tip, is from reading your posts, you seem like the kind of person who will do thorough research before making your own decision whether to use or not use something. I would like you to Google, keywords, Media Code Speed Edit (MCSE) for LG writers. What you find, please read & digest completely.

    I might be wrong, because I didsn't grow up with Metric, but I think this file is too big to fit on a single layer blank Dvd-R.

     

    4 699 979 776 bytes = 4 482.25 megabytes

     

    4 699 979 776 bytes = 4.37719727 gigabytes

     

    Did some checking & by the looks of it, it is close, so never mind.

    I'm not sure i understand your comments based on your log. Are you saying they don't work for you @2.4x but they do @4x?

     

    Because for me, they don't burn at all at either speed. But if i change nothing (not even a reboot) i can burn my discs fine using Memorex discs.

     

    Just to be clear, I have not been able to burn a Verbatium at all, no matter if its 2.4x or 4x speed. But my Memo's work flawlessly with no change to the computer.

     

    The available write speed to me with this media & this drive is 4X, so I burn @4X. If I had a choice of write speeds, then I would have to decide which speed to use based on what I have done before with this media, this drive & found the best write speed to use. People give advice on the knowledge available to them & the most recommended DL media anywhere is Verbatim 2.4X, made in Singapore especially for older drives. Personally I will use 2.4X, 8X, made in Singapore or India. I will also use Philips 8X. You might have got a bad batch, it happens, you might have something wrong with your firmware for that drive. Don't you find it the least bit strange that Memorex works but Verbatims don't? Are you able to try burning these Verbatims with another drive, maybe even in another computer to check?

  6. Damn, I missed this one :(

     

    As you get older & mellower, you gain a few things & you lose a few. Wisdom hopefully being a gain, but then slowing down comes with age.

    If this is coming from Dvd Shrink to fit on a single layer blank disc, why is this the source file?

     

    I 20:06:16 Source File Size: 4,682,248,192 bytes

     

    What's your setting in Dvd Shrink?

     

    I 20:06:16 Write Speed: MAX

     

    Do you always burn at this speed, general rule of thumb is half the maximum rated speed of the blank disc, IE; 16X burn @8X.
